Bespoke Furniture, Custom cabinetry, Kitchen
USA All the Way
At LA Smith Studio, this project exemplifies our diversity to deliver a handcrafted Kitchen that has met our clients brief, and all just from a photo! This was truly something special; Unique to Australian design but still required extraordinary craftmanship; this kitchen exudes the our capability and experience to be able to deliver.
About this project
This project began with a simple yet ambitious brief: replicate a kitchen the client loved from a reference image. What followed was the meticulous recreation of an authentic American-style kitchen, delivered with precision and craftmanship.
Mastering the Art of American Character
The design was inspired by a traditionally American Home, with several materials sourced directly from the United States to ensure authenticity and attention to detail. The cabinetry feature a considered combination of solid American Oak and Vic Ash timber, carefully selected and custom-stained to match original protype.
One of the key challenges was achieving the precise light green finish. This was accomplished through application of a solid colour, followed by a tinted brown hand-brushed topcoat finish. The process required a single artisan to complete the application to maintain colour consistency and achieve the desired natural, time-worn appearance.
Signature elements such as the natural quartzite benchtops, custom-made capping moulds, and hand-turned timber legs reinforce the classic American aesthetic and craftmanship synonymous with this style of kitchen.
From Inspiration to Exceptional Reality
This project showcases our ability to transform inspiration into reality. Starting from a single image, we delivered a fully bespoke kitchen that not only met the client’s brief but exceeded expectations-combining unique Australian design sensibilities with exceptional craftsmanship and international influence.

Kitchen of Quiet Luxury
Where Sculptural Timber meets Stone simplicity. It’s more than a functional space – it’s an experience in refined living.
About this project
When our clients approached us with their vision, they were clear: the kitchen needed to feel open, serene, and considered — a space where less is truly more. Their brief was to create a layout that flowed effortlessly, with subtle elegance and no unnecessary clutter. They wanted a kitchen that would feel calm yet compelling; one that balances restraint with refined character.
To bring this vision to life, we focused on a handful of bold, purposeful design moves within a minimalist framework. A sculptural, softly curved rangehood — accented with a fine brass inlay — creates an elegant focal point. Beneath it, the island bench is a standout statement: crafted from American Walnut, its organic curves and tactile finish lend warmth and structure to the open plan.
We introduced contemporary shaker-style doors in a neutral tone, flowing seamlessly along the window wall and into the walk-in pantry, creating continuity and visual calm. The client’s desire for high-end detail and craftsmanship is realized in elements like custom timber-framed beading, constructed without nails, and hand-finished curved joinery — all of which speak to our deep commitment to precision.
Elevated Everyday:
Every material and detail in this space was selected to complement — never compete. Dekton’s “Reverie”, used across benchtops, splash backs, and shelves, introduces a subtle depth with its marble-like veining, bringing quiet drama to the neutral palette.
Our Belief:
This Kitchen is a true embodiment of LA Smith Studio’s belief: that timeless design, expert craftsmanship, and thoughtful restraint can create spaces that elevate daily living. More than just a kitchen — it’s a handcrafted expression of calm, character, and enduring style.
