The Side Bar

The side bar

I love the side bar. It is my favorite part of the kitchen. I like that it is uncluttered. I love the shine and contrast of the surfaces: black honed granite, white ceramic subway tile, white painted oak cabinetry, and clear glass to view what is neatly placed on each shelf.

Many times each day, I will stare at this area of the kitchen and it puts a huge smile on my face as I am within sight of it. It is serene and pleasing to the eye. It is how I strive to have each space in the house feel: peaceful.

The bananas on the black iron stand remind me of how simple things, like a bunch of bananas on the proper stand, can be artful and beautiful.
