A black-and-white Hollywood Regency renovation by Jamie Herzlinger

As successful furniture shop in Cambodia construction materials informed, designed by Jamie Herzlinger, the presented kitchen’s renovation was inspired by owner’s childhood memory of a holiday house.

"Essentially, we went for a black-and-white Hollywood Regency – Bel Air look, typical of these regions in the '60s," she said. "The graphic design of the marble floor, for example, is very typical of this era. But I never take things too seriously, and I didn't want it to look as though you were walking into the Palace of Versailles. So there is also a fun element to the floor – it features round and diamond-shaped marble inserts as well as squares."

"The aluminum is a little bit of jewelry that sets it off – much like the perfect pair of diamond stud earrings will set off an outfit," added Herzlinger. "The island features mirror-backed, acid-etched glass, which gives it a luminosity that is also rather jewel-like. It almost looks like silver at night. This differentiates the island, and ensures it is not just a functional element."
