kitchen in a sixteen million dollar house!
Comments (30)There's no question in my mind that the kitchen simply doesn't match the grandeur of the rest of the house. And the rest of the house really is grand! Stately and gorgeous. The kitchen is so blah! As others above have stated some design flaws such as lack of counter space, ovens, burners, etc. I'll state the more shallow view. Where's the WOW factor? On a home tour I took a couple of years ago there was one house we visited, maybe in the $3-4 million range, which had the most incredible LOOKING kitchen I've ever seen. They took a beautiful granite with a lot of color and movement and made it the theme of the kitchen. It was not just on the counters and backsplash, but on the back side of the island so that it faced into the family room. I wish I'd taken pictures of it but it just gave that whole part of the house a touch of class and panache. The kitchen was a real work of art, and that really fit well with how the rest of the house was outfitted. Admittedly, that granite was to a specific taste and I'm sure there are plenty of people who wouldn't like it. But boy did it make a statement. The kitchen you're showing is just as dull as, well, dishwater, considering the thought and attention to detail that clearly went into the rest of the house. The funny thing is, I'm usually the one who walks into one of these kitchens and says, yeah, it's beautiful but is it functional? The answer usually being, NO. But let's face it, when you pay $16 million for a house, you ought to be able to get both....See MoreMillion Dollar Pond

Comments (17)I have forced air, I would prefer floor radiant. I really wish whole hse air cleaners were more common place w/forced air. The one downside of radiators, you get no air movement, I can remember being at my sister's apt who had radiators and she was a smoker... you could see the smoke floating in the air forever. The only way to remedy was open a window or use a fan. The fan just moved the smoke around....See MoreMillion Dollar Drapery Question: Ceiling Mount or Wall Mount
Comments (8)Good question for M Miller or Patricia Colwell Consulting "Is it possible or preferable to install the track before finishing the ceiling in new construction or does the window contract install this into the drywall? " Seems like before finishing is logical, but I don't know for sure....See Moreanoriginal
