Unfortunate fenestration
Sometimes I wonder, did someone really design that? I hope they weren’t paid too highly. What do you think about these little windows?
The perpetrators shall remain anonymous
They’re fine, aren’t they, in a kitchen where there’s no room for a real window, as a way to let light in between upper cabinets and the counter. But why would you use one behind the sink like this, where there are no uppers? A great way to become closely acquainted with your mosaic tile, unless you are very petite indeed?
What worries me even more, especially after yesterday’s post on the comforting qualities of symmetry, is the off-center placement of the window relative to the cabinets. It’s nice that the doors of the uppers are all approximately the same width – but that good work is all undone by the unequal spacing around that window. And no, sorry, the plant doesn’t disguise anything.
I won’t mention the microwave (really), you already know what I think about that. I do like the dramatic mosaic tile – I’ve just completed a kitchen that uses something very similar, and it’s yummy. But, please, that little bit of granite above the range? I’ve never been fond of the matching 3 or 4 inch granite splash, either, especially with tile, and this is one backsplash that doesn’t need any more chopping up, after those windows.
Nice barstools, though – and those apples look good!
