Color in Decoration, 1990

Osvaldo Borsani, Villa Borsani, 1945

Welcome to the "Lumberjack Chic" kitchen, where we’ve successfully brought the entire forest indoors just to toast a bagel. It’s the perfect aesthetic for someone who wants to feel like they’re living in a luxury treehouse but still needs a dishwasher to clean their avocado-green stoneware. I particularly enjoy the log pillars; they’re great for structural support and for when you need to scratch your back like a grizzly bear mid-recipe.

Jean Brusselmans has transformed the intimate scene of a woman in the kitchen into a stylized composition of planes and lines. Through the austere forms and their intense simplification he has reduced all the elements of the painting to their essence. The bright touches of red and white add an element of freshness to the rather sombre surroundings in which Brusselmans painted his wife. Her attitude is one of resignation and her face expresses very little emotion. Around her we see the attributes of a simple life, objects which are often depicted in Brusselmans’ still-lifes. In his search for the right form the artist always found new inspiration in his everyday surroundings.

It's taken 11 years to fully renovate our apartment. Worth every minute and every dime. It's 730 sqft of love and effort. Milanote has been invaluable in helping me put together the design and organize these projects. (I figure I gotta give 'em a plug since I'm under their FREE account.) This is our small alcove that leads into our kitchen. The kitchen is almost done. All that's left is the countertops, sink, and backsplash...
