Why are we all in love with the kitchen featured within the movie "It's Complicated?"

Is it because we love Meryl Streep? Maybe.

Is it because we love Steve Martin? Maybe.

Is it because we love that a mature woman is getting to have what she wants in life? I’m liking that one ;-)

Or is it the ambience?

The feeling you get when you look at that kitchen.

Just thinking about living and cooking there can bring a smile to your face.

Gazing out the window to your herb garden to see what looks good to clip today?

Maybe waving at the neighbor?

Using all those wonderfully simple bowls, plates and wooden spoons.

Can't you just feel them in your hands?

The coolness of the white marble under your freshly made dough?

With a cup of coffee steaming under your nose?

Can’t you smell it?

I can ;-)

Here's a link to a design plan I created for a young couple who found this kitchen as the inspiration for their home's remodel.
