About Timeless Kitchen
Timeless is a kitchen furniture system that combines artistry, functionality, durability and customisation. The design carries a touch of nature through vertical lines inspired by water streaming down a window. The same lines appear in the shelving, the handles, the colour accents, the surface engravings and the pendant lampshade. The base cabinets are made of powder-coated aluminium, a material chosen for its structural strength. Cabinet interiors have edgeless corners for easy cleaning, and peg holes with brackets allow flexible shelf heights.

- Powder-coated aluminium cabinet carcase, body and handles. Powder-coated metal and clear glass for open shelves. Compact panels on door panels, worktops and cabinet sides. Engraved compact panels with a new technique to create the v-shaped valley without compromising its structural strength. Painted Lava Green on powder-coated aluminium handles and coated with a protective layer to withstand scratches and reduce wear and tear. Acrylic ribs for the pendant lamp shade to increase transparency and to resemble the cloud.
- Design Challenge
- Challenges include
1. Engraving the vertical lines deep enough to create v-shaped valley on the already thin compact panels used on door panels and waterfall worktop of the island without compromising its structural strength.
2. Finding suitable materials to replace the wood of the pendant lamp to increase transparency so it resembles a cloud more than the original material designed.
3. Applying the designer's signature colour, Lava Green, with paint on to the powder-coated aluminium handles so that the paint could stick, withstand scratches and prolong its colour. - Research
- The design research was based on translating the reminiscence of water into the design and realising it with features of the materials used without compromising functionality, durability, and elegance. The production research was focused on manufacturing techniques to achieve the design and maximising the functionality, durability, elegance of materials and craft the components into a kitchen masterpiece.
