Keshaw McArthur co-founder Xuan McArthur Nguyen sees ‘space’ as a medium they work with to provide definition and direct flow – an approach explored in the Valley House kitchen. “Instead of approaching the kitchen as a moment within the home that looks to show off or stand out, we were interested in how it could have an understated character, yet still possess a quiet beauty,” Xuan says. A rethinking of fundamental parts, Keshaw McArthur challenged formality and dissolved boundaries between the kitchen and scullery to create a space formed on ‘pure function’.
