In the vibrant, character-filled suburb of Petrie Terrace, this kitchen renovation blends refined Italian porcelain with a playful curation of original artworks, including Custom Cabinetry painted by Kris Cush. Designed and installed by Align Kitchens, the space is as unique as its location — a celebration of colour, creativity, and the timeless beauty of “Alibrandi” Arabescato 4D porcelain.
Why Alibrandi Arabescato 4D Is the Perfect Anchor
The cool ivory base and intricate grey veining of Alibrandi Arabescato 4D bring balance to a home alive with personality. In a kitchen surrounded by bold, original paintings and textured finishes, the porcelain’s classical marble-inspired design grounds the aesthetic while allowing the art and cabinetry to shine. Kiln-fired in Italy and full-bodied throughout, it delivers the durability this high-traffic space demands, from morning coffee to late-night dinner parties.
Its full-body composition means the veining continues right through the slab, allowing seamless mitred edges and the ability for a sleek polished 12mm edge. For fabricators, this is a dream to work with; for designers, it opens up creative possibilities without compromise.
A Kitchen That Reflects Brisbane’s Lifestyle
This Petrie Terrace home embraces light, openness, and flow. Large windows and an airy layout mean the Alibrandi porcelain surface reflects natural light across the room, enhancing the sense of space. The soft cashmere finish keeps the atmosphere warm and inviting, perfectly complementing the home’s dark timber floors, crisp white cabinetry, and striking black accents.
Where many kitchens lean towards a single aesthetic, this one confidently mixes the refined with the eclectic — proving that premium surfaces can be both timeless and full of character.
Loved by Designers, Valued by Fabricators, Enjoyed by Homeowners
Designers choose Alibrandi Arabescato 4D for its ability to adapt to different styles — from minimalist to maximalist. Fabricators appreciate its consistent structure and edge strength. And homeowners love that it delivers the elegance of marble without the maintenance, making it as practical as it is beautiful.
