A Welcoming Family Home Radiates Out to the Neighborhood in Melbourne

9 of 19

A hardworking pantry was essential for the family. "They’re also very keen cooks," said the firm. "They preserve fruit, make kombucha, keep bees, and grow a lot of herbs and vegetables. The open walk-in pantry, plenty of bench space, and storage are all approaches that allow for lots of food to be produced." Pantry inserts are made from Maxi Film birch plywood in black, so that the pantry space recedes.
