Dark and Luxe: Embracing Moody Elegance

Dark and Luxe: Embracing Moody Elegance
A celebration of modern luxury and bold design, every detail speaks of a thoughtful concept, from the joinery to the striking features used throughout the space.

Nestled in Cremorne, Sydney, this remarkable sub-penthouse has undergone a stunning transformation. Thanks to the vision of Team2 Architects, it now boasts a design that marries exquisite aesthetics with exceptional functionality. With sweeping harbour views and luxurious details, this renovation sets a new benchmark in modern living.

Bianca Karcher, interior designer at Team2 Architects, explains they were approached by their client to create a moody kitchen. “We wanted to use a clean and concise pallet with a dark timber throughout,” she said. 

A beautiful mix of materials and textures were used with polytec's Thermolaminated Sussex door profile in Bottega Oak Woodmatt, being the hero colour. Then, creating contrast with light feature cabinets in Oyster Grey Smooth, forming a sleek, cohesive palette that feels both modern and timeless. 

The black Aluminium doors with Fluted Glass inserts introduce a subtle play of light and texture, adding visual interest. The island bench stands out with polytec’s Steccawood battens in Empire Oak Woodmatt constructed in a soft curve, adding a sculptural element.

polytec’s products played a crucial role, delivering not only rich, consistent colours, but also the durability required for a high-use area like the kitchen. Bianca adds, “I’ve been happy using polytec’s product for years – the colours palettes, finishes, and variety are exceptional.” 

With its striking aesthetic and thoughtful materiality, the Cremorne project is a shining example of what’s possible when innovative design meets unparalleled products.
