Minimalism may have once ruled in the style stakes (particularly in the early 2000s), but today the most interesting rooms are defined by layers of material and contrast. Anne Hathaway’s minimalist kitchen, designed by Studio Shamshiri, shows how it’s done.
Warm wood paneling and floors set the tone, while turquoise cabinets with brass hardware and a crisp white tile backsplash bring character. Most striking is the pairing of surfaces, with soapstone counters alongside a wood-topped island, a mix that feels both practical and elegant.
