The elegant wooden kitchen with dramatic marble

In a beautiful beach house on the Rungsted coast, north of Copenhagen, we have created a harmonious wooden kitchen inspired by the surrounding nature. The dark oak kitchen cabinets are complemented by an exclusive green marble countertop in a kitchen that exudes nature and elegance.

The kitchen features minimalist framed cabinets in dark oak, which complement the green-melange Verde Alpi marble that evokes the image of flowing water.

The layout and mix of materials create a personal impression, making the kitchen more than just a place for cooking; it becomes an inspiring space to spend time in.

The kitchen has been renovated with natural and durable materials. The goal was to create a kitchen that blends seamlessly with the rest of the house’s architecture, featuring a timeless design that reflects the beautiful coastal landscape outside the window.

The oven and much of the kitchen's storage are integrated into a smart pocket door cabinet. The doors slide seamlessly into the cupboard, allowing the space to remain open during cooking without disrupting the kitchen’s tidy appearance.

The marble-clad kitchen island is almost a work of art, evoking a sense of minimalist luxury. The stove, with a discreet fan built into the island, invites social cooking with family and friends. Explore kitchen island inspiration.

With thoughtfully integrated smart storage, the kitchen offers both practicality and beauty, keeping the space uncluttered and serene. The design balances modern functionality with a sense of tranquility, seamlessly tied to the natural surroundings.

Smart storage is incorporated into both the wall cabinets and the kitchen island, where drawers are made of elegant solid wood, featuring custom-made cutlery inserts in the same dark oak as the kitchen.
