From Inspiration to Installation: Our End-to-End Process
Design Consultation: Every classic kitchen begins with a conversation. We’ll sit down to understand your lifestyle, the architecture of your home, and the style cues you love — whether that’s ornate cornices, fluted panels, or traditional framed cabinetry. From there, we’ll recommend layout options that maximise space while staying true to the classic aesthetic.
Materials & Detailing: We guide you through a curated range of premium kitchen materials, from marble or granite benchtops to aged brass fittings and heritage-inspired tiling. We’ll help you find the right balance of beauty and practicality so your kitchen feels as good as it looks.
Custom Joinery, Made Locally: Everything is made by our skilled joinery team right here in Sydney. That means we’re able to craft made-to-measure cabinetry, custom handles, and internal storage solutions that fit your kitchen perfectly, down to the last panel.
Installation & Aftercare: Our installation team works with precision and respect for your home. We also stick around after handover, offering styling guidance, maintenance tips, and ongoing support if you ever need us.
What Makes a Kitchen Truly ‘Classic’?
A classic kitchen isn’t tied to trends, it draws on timeless design principles to create a space that feels calm, ordered, and rich in detail.
Think natural timber flooring, elegant mouldings, generous bench space, and warm lighting that brings it all together. We often incorporate heritage colours like soft greys, warm whites, or muted blues, layered with stone, timber, and glass for a well-rounded finish.
If you love layered detail and soft neutral tones, you might also be inspired by our elegant Hamptons kitchen designs.
Some homeowners prefer the clean lines of more modern kitchen renovations, which can still borrow elements from a classic aesthetic.



Classic Kitchen FAQs
Can I include modern appliances in a classic kitchen without ruining the aesthetic?
Yes, modern functionality can work within a classic framework. We often integrate contemporary appliances like induction cooktops, steam ovens, and smart fridges using custom joinery or panel-ready designs to maintain a seamless look. You get all the tech benefits without compromising the traditional feel.
What types of handles or hardware suit a classic kitchen style?
Timeless options like cup pulls, round knobs, and antique brass or brushed nickel handles work beautifully in classic kitchens. We also customise hardware finishes to complement your chosen palette and materials, whether you’re after a vintage feel or something more understated.
How can I make a small kitchen feel more traditional without crowding it?
In compact spaces, we use elements like open shelving, glass-fronted cabinets, and lighter heritage colours to bring in traditional character without overwhelming the room. Detailing like panelled doors or a subtle tiled splashback can give the nod to classic design in a more restrained footprint.
Are there eco-friendly options for classic kitchen renovations?
We work with sustainably sourced timber, low-VOC cabinetry finishes, and energy-efficient lighting and appliances. If environmental impact is a priority for you, we’ll tailor the renovation with conscious material choices and responsible suppliers.
Can you replicate a classic kitchen design I’ve seen overseas or in a magazine?
Yes, if you’ve found inspiration in a European villa or an American farmhouse, we can translate those design cues into a kitchen that works for your Sydney home. Share your references and we’ll create a tailored design that captures the same charm and functionality.
