A black-and-white movie kitchen that went from stage-set to trend-setting
The quintessential black and white movie kitchen that created a sensation in magazines and on the internet in 2003 wasn’t actually real. The film’s set designer Beth A. Rubino create a pastiche of a prototypical upscale East Hampton, Long Island kitchen. But the look gave rise to so many detailed questions about cabinets and appliance brands from those who wanted to recreate it in their own homes that it became the subject of several articles. A Wolf range and SubZero refrigerator are mainstays used on the set. Counters were faux but either soapstone or granite can produce the same look. White cabinets with bin pulls, and lights in the style of Urban Archaeology’s iconic cargo pendants sum it up.
