An extreme eclectic kitchen. “Simple” works wonders. It allows a very few special pieces, or groups, viewed as one block, to communicate the style message.

A bit of a fussy industrial look, its style, different than the uber traditional and sleek modern of the other elements, does not work for me. It seems to be trying to be a bridge between the two styles.  Image from Bo Bedre.
