We brought Hollywood Industrial style to life in this bespoke Cork build, crafted entirely for serious entertaining. The striking main kitchen features a show-stopping XTONE Orobico Dark stone island and modern poured resin flooring – supported by a hidden professional prep kitchen for cooking behind the scenes. It brings together high-performance design and the moody, luxurious feel of a boutique hotel.

The Brief

The clients asked for ‘Hollywood Industrial’. They wanted a space that felt moody, atmospheric, and built for serious entertaining. Think private members’ club, but comfortable enough to actually live in.

Dual Functionality

The main kitchen looks pristine because it’s allowed to be. We hid a fully stainless-steel commercial Prep Kitchen behind the main cabinetry. It means you can sear steaks in the back, while the open-plan lounge stays looking perfect (and smelling of Jo Malone candles).

The Details

The island is sexy. It seats ten people and is clad in XTONE Orobico Dark. The veins are pattern-matched across the stone to ensure the join is virtually invisible. If you’re going to do stone, you have to do it right.

The Flooring

To keep things seamless, the client opted for a poured resin floor. With zero grout lines to break the eye – the heavy, dark cabinetry looks like it’s floating on air.

Questions About This Kitchen

It was the clients’ brief: a moody, atmospheric space built for serious entertaining. Think private members’ club, but comfortable enough to actually live in.

A fully stainless-steel commercial prep kitchen is hidden behind the main cabinetry, so the cooking happens out of sight while the open-plan lounge stays looking perfect.

With no grout lines to break the eye, the floor is seamless, and the heavy, dark cabinetry looks as if it is floating.
