A Kitchen inspired by place, material and craftmanship.
EDIT is our new Kitchen System, designed as a meeting place. EDIT captures refined materials, in a finely balanced palette array, inspired by the unique character of our Australian landscape.
In a unique partnership with Cosh Living, EDIT has been designed in collaboration with KETT. Through a design process epitomized by the ebb and flow of a tide, an exploration of possibility and reduction repeats to create refinement.
The city dwelling of a freshly retired couple; who are now kindling their love of rural rolling plains and fruit trees during the week, prefaced the project as ‘the weekender’ to enjoy friends, family and our city’s bounty.
A ‘grown up’ Northcote renovation for a nature-loving family of four assembled a sustainability-focused dream team to collaborate on evolving habitats, indoors and out, that would delight the senses of not only the human inhabitants but their feathered, furry, flying and flowering friends.
A true example of our ethos of design for longevity, our K2 Palette Series focuses on material durability, sustainability and life span. In the development of this Series, we undertook a rigorous and thorough investigation into the materials available. The K2 Palette Series brings together the results of this testing, showcasing our selection of materials in a range of colour palettes, sourced from a collection of high quality, sustainably focused supply partners.
Liam Wallis of HIP V. HYPE, and architects Vicki McLean, and Ben Callery share strategies for sustainability and explain how Cantilever supports their responsible design practice.
Florian Carlton’s approach to food resonates with us, it’s friendly, uncomplicated, hyper-local and earnest in every way. Having recently hosted Dom Gattemayr from Florian in the EDIT Kitchen to prepare Florian's signature focaccia and to create their highly coveted and delicious grazing spread for our Saturday InDesign event, we’re thrilled to share Dom’s top tips for Summer Entertaining.
During the renovation process, we commonly see appliances left as an afterthought in a flood of decisions rushed at the last moment.
When it comes to the quality of a renovation, a well-designed kitchen is instrumental, and the appliances we select to go with it are just as important. This is not only for the longevity of the joinery but our enjoyment and health too!
It goes without saying, Cantilever loves to make good, honest kitchens. What you didn’t know is that we've experienced some serious food cravings along the way! Today we're introducing a much-anticipated Kitchen Stories segment on cooking; featuring recipes with clients in Cantilever Kitchens.
This beautiful Cape Schanck home is poised above the escarpment of Gunnamatta Beach, with sweeping views along the farm and coast line, punctuated by the floating distant CBD appearing to hover on the horizon sky. Settled into the surrounds by native tea tree, striking against the dynamic light of the everchanging sky, the beauty of the location became a muse for the project.
The styling direction for each of our projects starts with flowers. For Creative Director Kylie Forbes, flowers provide the foundation for the palette and mood of each shoot and environment, and are a vital component to communicate the feeling of each of our projects.

Each room in your home has its own purpose and atmosphere, yet a harmonious home considers how they feel collectively. Mark and Lyn, the owners of this South Yarra apartment, have achieved this harmony, through restrained use of colour, tactile finishes, a Japanese style influence, and a preference for Australian materials and craftmanship.
This spacious, architecturally designed apartment was brimming with potential, located in the inner-Melbourne neighbourhood of Carlton, with the city, restaurants and of course, excellent coffee at its doorstep. All the apartment needed was a new owner to bring the space to life. That’s where Lucy came into the picture.
For a celebrity chef who honed his craft at Noma and Rockpool and now helms Vue de monde, one of Australia’s most inventive fine diners, Hugh Allen is unexpectedly easy going and low-key. So much so that when Cantilever Director Travis Dean first met him in the Brunswick showroom for a laconic chat about the compact kitchen he was renovating, he had no idea Hugh was one of the country’s most exciting young chefs.
Matt and Peter didn’t expect to settle into the northern suburb of Coburg, nor did they expect to grow so fond of it. However, it was their search for the ultimate ‘renovators delight’, liveable but with plenty of future potential and of course, a nice size backyard for Frankie, the French bulldog, that led them to this eclectic, vibrant, community that they now love and feel a strong bond to.
Personality, colour and functionality were key reference points for this clever, within footprint, renovation. The result is a vibrant, considered and comfortable home, designed to effortlessly adapt to family life and entertaining. Our clients, Melissa and Johnny, couldn’t be happier with the outcome.
Longwood House resides on acreage of what is now operating as a Broodmare farm in the valley of the Strathbogie Ranges. Located in Longwood, the home was originally part of a Stallion Studfarm designed by an American architect and built by local craftsman using locally sourced stone.
A collection inspired by the practice of a life lived local, where the bounty hidden at your doorstep is revealed, should you seek it. In homage to K3 Kitchen System, we have created a palette series featuring locally sourced coloured concrete benchtops by Hatch Concrete, Stainless Steel and SoftTouch with Ply tones to inspire moments foraged and found.
Designing more sustainable solutions for joinery has long been an interest and priority of Cantilever’s product development. The early days of Cantilever saw us hone our trade in a more traditional sense, by making joinery for projects designed by architects. Immersed in the progressive inner north construction ilk, the furniture making traditions of the team led our interest and ability to test and explore materials, the catalyst of our product design journey.
This warm, family home brings a softness in palette and materiality, creating an inviting home equipped to partake in the rituals of daily life. Working within the existing footprint of the home, this relatively small renovation has made a big impact, revitalising the interior, encouraging a free flow of movement and creating a home equipped to handle the ongoing demands of family life now and into the future.
The K1 Kitchen System was born in 2010, our origin product. It has been nurtured, reviewed and adjusted as the years have gone by, but remains a robust, family friendly product at a value based price point.
Considered, open and light filled, Cynthia and Stephen’s renovation is brought to life with a thoughtful mix of colour and texture. The couple and their young son, Lenny are now enjoying living in the home they created. Designed by Cynthia’s architect father, Seng Leong, the project was close to their hearts and a tribute to his memory.
Space can be found in even the tiniest of townhouses, if only one makes use of built in joinery – the renovation of this Little Gold Street warehouse conversion is a case in point.
Cantilever's K1 Palette Series is a collection of colour, texture and tone, extending our K1 Kitchen System palette group. Featuring monochromatic subtlety, timber accent or rich colour pops, this series is a feast for colour lovers be you subtle, strong or sensible.
Akin to the concept of design beyond trends, our brand history in furniture design has influenced our desire and belief in design for longevity, of the value of a design classic, and its possibility. David and Anouk’s project epitomises this idea, spirited by Anouk’s own European heritage, and appreciation of design legacy.
A Kitchen to keep company and life, for memories.

The play of light is the expression of Architect Vieri Nembrini in this personal project. K2 Kitchen palette is explored, connecting to heritage materials, in a sense, reminiscing through design.
