In many ways, our homes are the sum of our lives. They contain the items we've collected throughout the years, and reflect how our tastes have changed over time. In Whoopi Goldberg's New Jersey kitchen, this connection is more explicit.
A 2011 photoshoot captured the comedian in her home, surrounded by glass shelves stacked high with her ceramics collection. Kitchen shelving has always been an avenue for adding color and warmth to the home, but Whoopi's stacked-high shelving takes the technique to the next level. Her pieces are full of personality, ranging from Lalique glass to Roseville pottery, and whimsical, artistic pieces. It includes high-end decorative works by designers like Ferdinand Parpan and Charles Catteau, and a Lucia Friedericy Cheshire cat. They add brilliance to her white and glass kitchen idea.
