As someone who hates clutter the simplicity of this kitchen really appeals to me. I love the handleless cupboards and the monolithic island - the clean lines really stand out against the rough texture of the wall behind. This image sums up the wabi sabi aesthetic of 'the fullness of emptiness'. As first glance it looks pretty bare but when you look closely there's quite a lot happening: four different materials, four different surfaces, contrast and harmony all in one. Sometimes less really is more.
