Nature-Inspired Kitchen: Edible Plants and Earthy Scents

A biophilic designed kitchen. In front of the window, there is a row of built-in planters integrated into the countertop, planted with basil, mint, rosemary, and lettuce, showing dark soil, with leaves that can be easily picked, some already trimmed. The window is large and openable, looking out onto fruit trees in the garden. The countertop is natural stone, and the cabinets are unpainted solid wood, revealing wood grain and knots. The walls are tiled with handmade ceramic tiles, varying in color depth. Open shelves hold handmade ceramic bowls and glass jars filled with grains and dried goods, their contents visible. The floor is natural stone slabs. Lighting is primarily natural light. Avoid: using artificial plants and plastic faux wood cabinets, planting plants in inaccessible locations, allowing professional stainless steel equipment to dominate, adding cold white lighting.

一間親自然設計的廚房。窗前有一整排嵌入檯面的植栽槽,種著羅勒、薄荷、迷迭香與生菜,看得見深色的土壤,葉片可以隨手摘取,有些已經被剪過。窗是大面且可開啟的,外面是庭院的果樹。檯面是天然石材,櫃體是未上漆的實木,可以看見木紋與節疤。牆面貼著手工燒製的陶磚,顏色深淺不一。開放層板上放著手作的陶碗與玻璃罐,裡面裝著穀物與乾貨,看得見內容物。地面是天然石板。光線以自然光為主。避免:使用人造植物與塑膠仿木櫃體、把植物種在無法伸手的位置、使用不鏽鋼的專業設備主導、加入冷白的照明。
