No Visible Means of Support

01.30.2010 · Posted in Kitchens, Oh, really?

OK, I can see it’s cantilevered. But I can’t help feeling it would look better if it did have some other visible means of support. Design that appears to flout the laws of physics can be eye-catching, arresting, thought-provoking. But in the kitchen, how would it be once the novelty has worn off? I think I’d find it constantly uncomfortable (via).

It certainly provoked my thoughts, anyway. What do you think?

  1. Paul, Cheryl – yeah, no controversy here. A case of trying too hard to be different.

  2. Francois, you get the Gold Medal – just mind your head on the bounce

  3. yep, with you guys on this one …love to argue…but can’t here…sometimes “cool” factor can be taken too far…just like overdone kitchens! LOL!

  4. That bothers me out of the gate and would continue to bother me for a long time. I love a clever cantilever, but that’s just too much. Maybe if it had chairs around it…

  5. Boing! Boing! I’m going for the double summersault with pike.
