Shielded by tempered glass, the oil painting behind the hood is rendered on wallpaper canvas and can be removed if the client wants to replace it. The other pieces are similarly protected.

A bright blue on the side of the peninsula frames the kitchen from the dining room, and the turquoise and muted yellow walls also recall Addis’ work.

Katsioulla-Beall chose 4-in., recessed LED lights with 2700K color temperature light bulbs, which simulate museum lighting with warmer tones.
