Retro French Kitchen: Marble Countertops and Open Shelving

A vintage French kitchen. Cabinets have simple wooden door panels, painted in soft white or light grey-green, with small brass spherical handles. The countertop is a single slab of grey-white marble, showing water stains and subtle scratches from use. The walls are white small square tiles or directly painted. There are no wall cabinets, only two wooden shelves holding mismatched white porcelain plates and glass cups. A few copper pots hang above the stove. The floor is old tiles or herringbone wood. Avoid: using matching modern modular kitchen units, adding a full row of wall cabinets and stainless steel appliances, using glossy laminate and artificial stone, placing multiple appliances on the countertop.

一間復古法式廚房。櫃體是簡單的木製門片,漆成柔和的白或淺灰綠,把手是小顆的黃銅圓球。檯面是一整片灰白大理石,有使用的水漬與細微刻痕。牆面是白色的小方磚或直接塗料。沒有吊櫃,只有兩道木層板放著不成套的白瓷盤與玻璃杯。爐台上方掛著幾支銅鍋。地面是老磁磚或魚骨木地板。避免:使用成套的現代系統廚具、加入整排吊櫃與不鏽鋼家電、使用亮面的美耐板與人造石、在檯面上放置多台電器。
