It was the kitchen of a boarding−house, and you can imagine what a disagreeable place it was — full of unpleasant smells, and usually piled high with dirty dishes which the scullery−maid must wash. It was dark, it was greasy, the cook had a bad temper, and the chimney smoked. You would have thought the little scullery−maid would have been glad to get out of it the instant her work was done, even though the only place to which she could go was one corner of an attic on the top floor. But, oddly enough, she often left her attic room and slipped back down to the kitchen after every one had gone. For, much as she hated the kitchen, there was one thing about it she loved. It overhung a rippling little river, which ran down from the mountains above the city, and which was always talking to itself and to any one else who would listen. All day long it talked, but then its voice was drowned in the rattle of pots and pans and the angry commands of the bad−tempered cook. The scullery−maid sometimes went out on a little platform, directly over the water, where she sat and peeled a mountain of potatoes.

  • Picture-Perfect Kitchens
    INTERIORS BY DARREN JAMES PICTUre-PerFECT KITCHENS sPeciaLists in Design, manUFactUre anD Project management the owners of the featured kitchen were looking for the ‘wow’ factor. With the work room (scullery) positioned behind the main kitchen, the concept was to create a kitchen showpiece that would act as a backdrop to the open-plan living space, creating a ‘picture frame’ effect. clean, crisp, minimal lines give the kitchen a sleek and contemporary appearance. Design symmetry, balance of tone and a minimalistic aesthetic enhance the kitchen’s individuality and presence. all working spaces, including the scullery, laundry and office are cleverly hidden behind the kitchen, ensuring it remains the working hub of the home. the white-on-white colour scheme has been created with the use of resene ‘Black White’ cabinetry and ‘aspen glacier’ staron benchtops. their combined use gives the kitchen a crisp, seamless look. resene ‘wet cement’ gloss lacqer was used to create the picture frame effect, and is backlit with LeD lights. the scullery – which houses the fridges, food, bulk appliances such as the toaster and coffee machine, extra sink and Zip water filter, features a combination of materials – amerind Legno architectural panels in Driftwood cresto, caesarstone ‘organic White’ benchtops and a mirrormax splashback. the pantry ‘hides the mess’ and ensures the public face of the kitchen remains smart, clean and tidy. 2 Kitchen + Bathroom Design CONTACT Interiors by Darren James Brisbane tel: (07) 3801 2566 Fax: (07) 3806 2583 email: [email protected] Website: www.interiorsbydarrenjames.com.au a seamless staron breakfast bar is cleverly positioned and tucked away enough as not to detract from the overall design while still providing a functional designated meals area for the clients’ young children.

  • ADVISORY NOTICE 04/18 BUILDING Advisory Notices Are Issued to Assist in the Interpretation of the Development Act 1993 September 2018
    ADVISORY NOTICE 04/18 BUILDING Advisory Notices are issued to assist in the interpretation of the Development Act 1993 September 2018 TECHNICAL: Laundry facilities in residential buildings This Advisory Notice provides information about installing clothes washing facilities in kitchen areas of Class 1, 2 and 4 buildings. BACKGROUND Recent trends in residential developments have lead to limited space being available for separate clothes washing facilities in many houses and apartments. As a result, facilities for clothes washing that do not meet legislative requirements are frequently being installed in kitchen or bathroom areas, rather than being provided in a separate laundry room or space. This raises health concerns because often the required laundry washtub is not being provided and the relevant waterproofing and plumbing standards are not being adhered to. DISCUSSION The relevant performance requirements for health and amenity in the National Construction Code (NCC) require the following for Class 1, 2 and 4 buildings- laundry facilities or space for laundry facilities and the means for sanitary disposal of waste water from those facilities to be provided in a convenient location within or associated with the building to enable occupants to carry out laundering; and food preparation facilities that include a means for food rinsing, utensil washing and the sanitary disposal of associated waste water; a means of cooking food; and a space for food preparation; and protection for wet areas of bathrooms, laundries and kitchens to prevent- o water penetrating behind fittings and linings or into concealed spaces which could cause damage to building elements or create unhealthy conditions; and o accidental water overflow penetrating adjoining rooms or spaces; and o water accumulating on floors of laundries and bathrooms that could cause unhealthy or dangerous conditions.
