Icon Cuneo Oak & Sulia Monte Black
Contemporary Kitchen in Co. Galway – Cuneo Oak & Monte Black
The Art of Concealment
The most successful contemporary kitchens aren't defined by what they add, but by what they hide. Concealed entrances to the walk-in pantry and bootility, handleless cabinetry and flush detailing create uninterrupted lines throughout this Galway home, allowing the kitchen to feel calm, open and beautifully organised. Designed from our Icon Collection in Cuneo Oak with a contrasting Sulia Monte Black island, this kitchen effortlessly combines everyday functionality with beautifully simple design.

Kitchen Highlights
Seamless Contemporary Living
Handleless cabinetry, flush bulkhead detailing and a recessed BORA hob create clean, uninterrupted lines, giving the kitchen its calm, uncluttered and effortlessly refined character.
Beautiful Materials, Expertly Layered
Calacatta Oro Dekton flows seamlessly from the worktop to the full-height splashback, creating a striking focal point that perfectly balances the warmth of Cuneo Oak with the bold contrast of Monte Black cabinetry.
The Beauty of Concealment
The walk-in pantry and bootility disappear into the cabinetry, allowing the kitchen to be experienced as one continuous design. By removing visual interruptions, the space feels calm, refined and effortlessly organised.
Designed Around Everyday Living
An L-shaped layout centred around a generous island creates an efficient space for cooking, entertaining and everyday family life, allowing the kitchen to perform as beautifully as it looks.

Frequently asked questions
Absolutely. In this project, both the walk-in pantry and bootility are concealed behind full-height 900mm-wide doors, allowing them to disappear seamlessly into the surrounding Cuneo Oak cabinetry. By maintaining continuous grain, handleless detailing and uninterrupted lines, the kitchen is experienced as one cohesive design while keeping food storage, small appliances and everyday essentials completely hidden from view.
Modern oak kitchens rely on simplicity rather than ornamentation. Here, Cuneo Oak is paired with a contrasting Monte Black island, handleless cabinetry, flush bulkhead detailing and Calacatta Oro Dekton surfaces to create warmth without feeling heavy. The result is a kitchen that feels contemporary, refined and designed to stand the test of time.
Continuing the same surface from the worktop to a full-height splashback is one of the most effective ways to create a seamless, contemporary kitchen. In this project, we designed the 20mm Calacatta Oro Dekton worktop to flow continuously into the full-height splashback, allowing the dramatic veining to become a striking design feature. Alongside its visual impact, Dekton offers exceptional resistance to heat, scratches and stains, making it an ideal choice for busy family kitchens where beauty and performance are equally important.
Yes, and this project is a perfect example. The warmth of Cuneo Oak is balanced by a bold Monte Black island, creating contrast without overwhelming the space. Combined with Calacatta Oro Dekton and carefully selected brass and black detailing, the palette feels layered, contemporary and effortlessly cohesive.
Handleless kitchens are an excellent choice for homeowners who appreciate clean lines and contemporary design. In this project, brass Gola profiles on the Cuneo Oak cabinetry and black Gola profiles on the Monte Black island subtly define each area while preserving the uninterrupted lines that make the space feel calm, refined and beautifully uncluttered.
Absolutely. Rather than using one finish throughout, this kitchen layers brass Gola profiles with black Gola profiles to subtly distinguish the oak cabinetry from the island. Together with the recessed BORA hob and Monte Black island, the combination creates a balanced, sophisticated palette with warmth, depth and contemporary character.
