There is a conventional way to lighten a white kitchen – you know, hang up a few gourmet works of art, paint an accent wall and maybe add some colorful chairs that hang on the table. And then there is the Diane Keatonart to turn a kitchen colorful, and everything without painting the walls or hanging up works of art: fiest goods. The vintage tableware pattern, which came onto the market in the mid-1930s, is like the colorful ceramic equivalent of peppers and blueberry hell, alive and oh so colorful. The original colors of fiestware were green, red, cobalt blue, yellow, ivory and finally turquoise, which was added to the line -up in 1937.
If you want to decorate your kitchen nowadays with fiesta, like the actor Diane Keaton, you have to browse through real estate sales, second-hand shops and auction houses to find enough parts to exclude your cupboards. In Keaton's residence there are plenty of quantities of fiestatware interlocks of the white walls, which she hugs in your kitchen. The kitchen explodes with color between the numerous plates, serving shells, cups, cups and plant pots as well as the colorful Mexican tiles, which she shows on her worktops.
This works for several reasons. Initially, Keaton's kitchen has many glass centers and open shelves with which she can present her collection. Second, the big color pops overwhelm the eye thanks to the neutral negative rooms – the walls, the cladding on the cupboards and the like – that were kept white. Even prisoners of wooden grains, with the kind permission of the bar chairs, contribute to the effect. They are the dark side by side to the bright shadow of the walls.
