Charcoal slate flooring furthers the sense of elegance, while polished chrome cabinet and drawer pulls modeled after bamboo bring a nature-inspired touch. The clients embraced the veining and character of Carrara marble for the countertops, even with its tendency to patina over time, as this is reflective of the French country \u201cbeauty in imperfection\u201d philosophy.<br><br>The obvious star of the kitchen is another French motif symbolizing luck, the rooster mural on the backsplash behind the Bertazzoni range \u2013 dubbed \u201cReginald\u201d \u2013 which was hand painted by a local artist.<br><br>The pantry, no longer shut away behind a door but featured beneath an arched entryway, also received a radical facelift.
