Knebel Kitchen Showroom
A former warehouse thoughtfully reimagined into a sophisticated kitchens showroom, marrying heritage architecture with refined design elements. Featuring ten exquisite kitchen displays and three alfresco showcases, this commercial interior invites visitors to experience the craftsmanship and innovation of Knebel Kitchens and NJ Joinery.
Task
Reimagine an old Jap World Spare warehouse into a high-end kitchens showroom, encompassing concept development, space planning, design detailing, and full project implementation. The result: a visually engaging, functional environment that showcases ten bespoke kitchens and three alfresco cooking spaces, each telling a unique design story.
Stepping into the Knebel Kitchen Showroom is an immersive journey into the art of bespoke kitchen design. Here, an industrial shell gives way to a curated collection of kitchens that demonstrate not only functionality and beauty, but also the passion, skill, and attention to detail that define Knebel Kitchens and NJ Joinery. By blending old and new, the space engages the senses and inspires visitors to envision extraordinary kitchen experiences in their own homes.
Key Project Highlights:
- Industrial Heritage Meets Contemporary Luxury: Original warehouse features are thoughtfully preserved and enhanced with modern design accents, premium joinery, and exceptional finishes.
- Distinctive Kitchen Displays: Ten unique kitchen vignettes and three alfresco configurations showcase a spectrum of styles—each story connected by meticulous craftsmanship and cohesive design elements.
- Immersive, Visitor-Centric Layout: Strategic space planning and lighting design create a welcoming flow that encourages guests to explore, linger, and appreciate the versatility and quality on offer.
- Future-Focussed Innovation: The showroom positions Knebel Kitchens and NJ Joinery at the forefront of design, illustrating how classic materials, emerging trends, and cutting-edge appliances can coexist harmoniously.
- Space Planning & Concept Development:
Drawing from the warehouse’s architectural bones, the layout embraces structural authenticity while introducing inviting circulation paths. Sightlines, varied elevations, and layered materials all serve to engage visitors and heighten their connection to the space. - Material & Finish Selection:
Premium materials—exotic timbers, high-quality stone, tactile finishes—come together to exemplify the highest standards of joinery and craftsmanship. Each display conveys a distinct aesthetic while complementing the overarching vision of quality and innovation. - Lighting & Atmosphere:
Considered lighting creates focal points, highlights textures, and sets an aspirational tone. Subtle illumination guides guests through the showroom, while ambient and task lighting emphasise each kitchen’s functionality and design sophistication. - Outdoor Inspiration:
The alfresco kitchen displays capture Australia’s love for open-air cooking and entertaining. Durable, elegant materials paired with practical layouts inspire clients to extend their culinary experiences beyond indoor boundaries.
By fusing heritage character, innovative design, and a rigorously curated selection of materials and finishes, we have transformed a historic warehouse into a premier showroom destination. The Knebel Kitchen Showroom stands as a testament to what can be achieved when space, story, and craftsmanship align—providing a stage where clients can dream, discover, and envision their perfect kitchen environment.
