The kitchen hearth was the center of daily activity in the home. It boasts an assortment of 18th century "appliances," including an iron pot on a swinging hook, a beehive oven, a rotisserie, and a toaster.
Built under orders by Kitchener to supply the British Army in the war against the Mahdi in the late 19th century, when I visited the area between Wadi Haifa and Station 10 (where the Sudanese railroad branches), the railroad was disused. An employee, proud in his uniform, told me that trains would start again the next day. Given how many of the tracks were still covered by sand, I was not optimistic: however, the railroad did start again (months rather than hours later) in 2013.

Det tok nesten eit år, men no er ALT ferdig på denne delen av kjøkkenet. (Ja, vi har jo som kjent to-i-eit-kjøkken)
One ambient shot, three flash pops, blended. The ambient was exposed for the room. I use one flash camera mounted, bouncing off ceiling, or wall joint behind the camera, the other flash off camera. Here, the OCF was placed in the far room, and on each side of the island. I shot this one with the lights off so I didn't have to deal with color issues on the cabinets.

Not my kitchen.
You know how they say the kitchen is the best place to eavesdrop on household gossip?
It's true...
by the way... we have a logo (finally)... check it out on our tumblr!!!

Been looking forward to a new kitchen for years and the time has finally arrived! Day 1 and the old one is gone!
Ruabon red/black quarry tiles. Rooms were tiled with a year inbetween (and from different ends) hence the patterns that don't line up! One room slightly higher than the other so the bar of plain reds were sloped to compensate
1 shot SB-600 OC blended with 2 ambient exposures- Stager spent 3 days at this house - I wasn't about to move a thing!
This kitchen has been a couple of months in the making. The kitchen unit and fridge are "Gloria" and were bright pink. Just about everything has been re-painted and a bit of re-ment added. I still have a few more things to change, let me know if you think any changes are needed! Need feedback! :)
At the right of this photo you can see the second prep sink, an invaluable feature for any large party. The door leads to a dramatic powder room.
GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN - This is a vintage cabinet which we restored and re-painted in one of our fave color combos. It sold before we could really photograph it. The only solution to disappointments like this is for you to come shop here more often.

When I was small, a very, very LONG time ago, my Mum had these hanging wire baskets in our kitchen. She hung them right over the sink & I remember thinking they were the coolest concept ever. I believe I might have been about four & whilst most children my age were playing with dolls, I was contemplating how those baskets were made.
FAST FORWARD TO ADULTHOOD--->
When I moved back to the U.S., I came with two suitcases. I'd left behind not only a career, a partner & his dear children, but a beautiful place in Sydney that I'd worked years making into a home. So, here I was in NYC, starting all over again - for the tenth time in nearly as many years.
Starting from scratch is never easy, but it doesn't have to be complicated either. I think it's just human nature to make simple things complicated. Sure, it's akin to a death/rebirth & can be an extremely humbling, yet also an empowering experience. Anyone whose ever had to do so can attest to this fact.
So, on one of my first thrift store excursions - on the LES - I stumbled across...you guessed it, my Mum's 1970's vintage wire baskets! Logic will tell you they weren't actually my Mum's, but I took it as a sign anyway. After all, what good is logic in a life of illogical sequence? I'd spent months contemplating on just how I'd arrived @ this juncture in my life and when I spotted the lovingly worn baskets, suddenly everything became clear!
I was EXACTLY where I was supposed to be. And, even though I didn't have an apartment to hang them in, I purchased the baskets (.50cents). Call me nostalgic. Call me hopeful. In the time since, they've hung in the kitchen of my very first NYC apartment & now hang in my loft.
Like me, they've taken a beating. The chains broke so many times, I had to rig them with galvanised wire & loose-leaf paper rings, but they've stood the true designer's test of time. As much as I'm around & source fancy wares, new gadgets & expensive products, one might think these cheap baskets would pale, in comparison. Instead, they remain one of my most favourite utilitarian kitchen items (they hold a lot of heavy stuff).
To me, they're more than Chinatown baskets, for they remind me of a more simple time and place. More importantly, they serve as a reminder that good design is simple & pure & that it doesn't have to be fancy & expensive to be good. It's like Dwell magazine's fruit bowl manifesto, in visual representation, except in triplicate & in hangable form.
Thanks Mum, for constantly helping me to remember the KISS theory - each and every time I re-enter my space after a harried day in a very complicated place. Happy 2008!

Compared to the rest of the rectory, the kitchen appeared quite modern. It looks to have been renovated at some point in the late 1990s, after the church had closed but while the rectory still housed permanent residents.
