It’s especially suitable for Hong Kong residential flats, opening up infinite possibilities in an otherwise finite space.”

He founded Make It Works to offer all-in-one design solutions, including consultancy, engineering and project management. From retail stores to residential flats, all the projects Shum undertook are designed on the principle of function and form: a bestof-both-world approach that underscores simplicity and practicality; geometric patterns and lines are some of his favourite features.
CLASSIC STAINLESS STEEL: BEST MATCH FOR DARK GREY AND BLACK KITCHEN

Bosch Series 8 has a square contour and comes with a circular Control Ring. All the gadgets are intentionally low-key so that they can blend even more discreetly into the kitchen, regardless of their interior styles. Given all these inherent merits, it’s one of the best kitchen ranges that Shum recommends to his clients.
Among the Bosch Series 8 highlights is the black glass door embellished by classic stainless steel: a chic fit for kitchen with dark grey or all-black as the main colour tone. The strong contrast between silver and black brings just the right amount of punches to ground up the design, elevating visual hierarchy across the cooking zone.
“Black is a colour that brings heavier weight than others and it works well in larger-sized kitchens. If you want to infuse a sense of hierarchy into an all-black kitchen, a contrasting feature wall and Bosch Series 8 stainless steel built-in steam oven are like a match made in heaven.”

With a light-weighted texture, the arctic white wall-mounted range hood barely takes up any space.
