Having purchased a classic, French Provincial style home a few years back, the owners of this Ardross residence Sue and Ron, wanted to update the kitchen to something more luxurious and reflective of their discerning taste.

Seeking an authentic French Provincial style design and superior quality finish, they conversed with several Perth kitchen designers, but it wasn’t until they spoke with Dino from Arcaro Exclusive Kitchens that they felt they’d found a cabinetmaker who truly understood their vision. “We wanted to work directly with the craftsman and not with a company that contracted out their work. Dino immediately instilled us with confidence that he had both the expertise and experience to create the high spec kitchen we were looking for” said Ron.

Dino’s professional guidance and recommendations for the cabinetry colour palette and material selections such as the striking granite that has been used on benchtops and splashbacks were welcomed by the couple who decided on an off white for perimeter and wall cabinets and contrasting, deep blue island bench. Throughout the process the level of service experienced was impeccable. Cabinets were completed at the Arcaro workshop by Dino and his Senior master craftsman Will Ford, the clients were invited to come view them to ensure they were very happy with the outcome before any installation took place.

In traditional style, the exceptional craftsmanship is clearly evident throughout the gorgeous space. The kitchen features intricate individually designed fluted pillastis mouldings, door profiles and decorative kick board with imported corbels. The cabinets themselves have been exquisitely crafted so they are more like luxury pieces of furniture than kitchen cupboards.

Hanging above the polished granite island bench is a brass Darlana lantern style pendant which completes the look, complementing the luxurious aged brass cabinetry hardware.

Quality finishes include Integrated lighting in glass cabinets and beneath cabinetry also ensures the space is beautifully lit, top of the range V-ZUG appliances, a Billi tap for filtered and aerated water complements the Turner Hastings fireclay farmhouse butler sink and traditional tapware.

Sue and Ron couldn’t be happier with the result, praising Arcaro Exclusive Kitchens for delivering a Rolls-Royce level of service. They describe it as a pleasure to work

with a true artisan and professional—someone who not only takes immense pride in his craftsmanship but also provides unmatched after-sales service.
