Rimba Terrace Kitchen

Architectural Joinery Case Study

Terrace Transformation

L-shaped wet + dry kitchen. Standard STKRJ/RPN terrace house layout, upgraded with precision-built cabinetry and climate-appropriate materials.

The Challenge

Builder-Grade Replacement

The homeowner had recently moved into a standard terrace house in the Rimba area. The existing kitchen was builder-grade—basic melamine cabinets with no under-sink protection and exposed chipboard edges, highly susceptible to swelling in Brunei's humidity.

Location

STKRJ Rimba / RPN Lugu

Layout

Compact L-Shaped

Requirement

Separate Wet/Dry Zones
