I hate marble countertops.

You're right, I didn't even miss the marble! The wood looks warmer and more inviting!

Exactly. This is an actual kitchen! I can almost taste a marvelous range of delicious meals that can be prepared from such excellent preparation and arrangement of tools, equipment and space. I enjoy cooking, honoring food and preparation knowledge. This kitchen inspires the senses.

Funny, but when I first saw it, I thought it was the "before" shot of a kitchen make over. Lol. Mostly, I guess because of the hex shape and the "beam me up Scotty" thingy overhead. I do like the open shelving with easy access to goods... and the color is cool. It's a take off of "Monica's kitchen." Nice that he has what works for him. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Linda Matulevicz, That is because the design ideas came from a chef instead of an interior decorator with a kitchen design software package. david

Yes certainly. Trying to remodel our kitchen in india where modular kitchen is the norm lately. I was looking for a free standing kitchen happy to see the corners well used with stainless steel sink area and so on.As if I saw my dream in front of my eyes.

I'm a kitchen designer and this has blown my mind !!💣😎👏

TheNicoliyah Now you're going to be a better kitchen designer! :)

Exactly! 😀

HI WHEN DID FOOD NETWORK SIGN MICHAEL SMITH

Mikey Savelli : he is only in Canadian Food Network not in the States.. unfortunately

@Naomi Frederick of course I love food and spices 😍

always thought of him as the unknown brother

Now I know why he sounded funny. Maybe they grew up in the same area.

Achuchu Bam I'm best friends with his son! He goes to my school

EEN63 he is a chef. He works fast. Dont worry about dust because pro chefs clean up very often. Open pantry just let him think n not miss out any ingredient when cooking. Its cluttery but it works. Why not right? :)

*EEN63:* I know what you mean by dust getting in and on everything - and besides dust, just the grease in the air from cooking coats everything too! Sometimes even if things are in a cupboard they get dust and grease on them, so I guess there's not much you can do about it. Maybe he's just learned to live with it, because he's so busy, I can't imagine him having time to wipe everything down every day - unless he as a cleaning staff come in.

Clutter is having each nook and cranny stuffed with randomness. Having things out where you always need them isn't clutter, it's adapting your environment to your needs. F.e.: I'm vegan, don't like preprocessed 'food', limit fat, and have a bad back. This means I play a lot with texture, ways of cooking, make everything from scratch, make a lot of smoothies and soup to take with me... So my contact grill, foodprocessor and vitamix are constantly out on my counters, but my microwave isn't even in the kitchen. My favourite skillet and wok hang on the wall, my cast iron pot always sits on the stove, and half my backsplash is covered by shelves full of spices. It's far from minimalistic, but it's efficient and actually very organised, not cluttered.
