Seeing Green(16)

At one end of the kitchen, Bill tucked in an upholstered banquette with a space-saving half-round table. Floor-to-ceiling pantries on either side provide ample storage space within steps of the dining room. An oil painting that hangs above the banquette was a perfect discovery. “It looks like I did the whole room around the painting, but I saw it in a gallery after I had finished the room,” Bill says. “It has the lime green and the orange, so I had to take it home.”
