Loz + Matt: Creating the perfect space for entertaining

What is your favourite part of the kitchen?

There are so many parts of the kitchen we love, but one of the standout features is the quartz shelf along the back wall. Not only does it add the finishing touch, but it also proves to be a practical solution for frequently used items. Plus, it is a great way to add character to the space with decorative pieces.

A close second must be the kitchen island! Beyond its functional role, the island has become a focal point for entertaining guests. It is a great area, and we love how people can gather around it- a great social aspect to our kitchen.

What made you pick quartz wall cladding alongside your worktops?

When it came to selecting the wall cladding, we opted for quartz over a traditional tiled splashback. Although tiles can look great the practicality and seamless look of quartz was the obvious choice.

With quartz, cleaning becomes a breeze, and it allows us to clean the surfaces and keep them looking their best without the worry of grout and discolouration – a choice that aligns seamlessly with our vision for a low-maintenance yet visually stunning kitchen.

What was your inspiration for the kitchen?

Being an interior stylist has meant I’ve been lucky enough to have been to some beautiful location houses that have incredible kitchens, so that is usually where I get my initial inspiration from. These spaces sparked ideas that I eventually incorporated into our own design. The endless scrolling through Pinterest also played a key role, as I was able to create a mood board with everything I wanted within our kitchen space.

Now it is finished how do you plan to enjoy your new space?

Although the kitchen is finished, we still have a lot of renovation work to be getting on with around the house, but in the meantime, we want to be able to appreciate the space and hard work that has gone into the kitchen.

We're eager to utilise our new kitchen by hosting our first Christmas, which is very exciting! There will also be a little one running around soon enough so we're certain that our dream kitchen will soon become a family space where we spend most of our time.
