La Cuisine De Christiane

Back to Christiane's amazing cuisine (kitchen) in Anglet. It was designed by a Bordeaux cuisiniste at a Boutique Bulthaup named “Futur Intérieur”.
This is some sort of built-in pressure cooker !? No microwave I'm sorry to report. The “cuisiniste” does not approve. So I had to heat my morning chocolat chaud in an old fashioned pot on top of the stove :( In this blurry photo note the plastic-protected photos over the stove. What a hoot :)
Again the light (lumiere) in France can not be topped.
Everything looks like a Vermeer still life to me. Yet to be painted...

    This super-high-tech kitchen looks to have stepped right out of Jacques Tati's, Mon Oncle -it's a '50s film but still the shoe fits. Try http://www.tativille.com/

    C’est SUPER, MAGNIFIQUE !!!
    J’ai envoyé la nouvelle version à Monsieur Vincent Grelier, le cuisiniste de Bordeaux, qui est un esthète.

  7. It must be a french thing. My friends kitchen is so similar, and the light (textures) through the window is living art.

    She said " Here in Paris you don't need much to have much"

    She is right.. :o)
