I want to share a few kitchens that have inspired me recently. Most of them are ones that you might never see in a design magazine – definitely not in a kitchen design magazine that is out to sell cabinets and products. These kind of kitchens have clearly evolved from time: time spent cooking and cleaning in them, eating in them and thinking in them. Is there a common thread other than the fact that I keep coming back to take another look? Yes, I think they all have a uniqueness of character – someone lives here.
