Media personality Paris Hilton shared a glimpse of her mom, Cathy Hilton’s kitchen — a haven for those who love classic, neutral spaces — with the inevitable luxury twist.
paris f The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Star Kathy Hilton was photographed making cookies in the traditional white kitchen, complete with herringbone-patterned tiles and glass-fronted cabinets displaying the socialite’s crockery and glassware. The kitchen provides a source of design inspiration for those looking to create a timeless space that is as practical as it looks beautiful.
While Kathy’s cabinets and marble kitchen countertop are easy to admire, we admit that one accessory is Kettle faucet (seen on the tiled wall above the oven) is our favorite feature.
Kettle faucets, also known as pot fillers, are certainly not a new phenomenon, but they have enjoyed a surge in recent years as their practical benefits have become increasingly known.
Everyone, from Kathy to kitchen stylists to Kendall Jenner (yes, really), can’t get enough of this timeless feature—and we understand its appeal.
“In these days of open plans and ever-expanding professionals like home kitchens, I’m seeing pot fillers making a comeback,” says Faith Blakeney, a Los Angeles-based designer. (Opens in a new tab).
Besides their practical reasons (eliminating any space between the stove and the faucet), Faith adds that kettle taps provide ‘a great excuse to add stylish fixtures’ to the minimalist space behind the stove—just as Kathy Hilton explains.
In the spirit of combining style with practicality, Kathy Hilton’s video (above) showcases another functional kitchen trend—the prep sink hidden in its marble island. Much like kettle taps, the prep sink makes cooking remarkably smooth—delivering water exactly where it’s needed.
Both practical and luxurious marble countertops, such as Cathy’s, are especially impressive when combined with a functional prep sink that will surely stand the test of time.
And of course, we also couldn’t help but spot Paris Hilton’s kitchenware line (which you can shop below) in her mom’s kitchen. These pink accent pieces add a pocket of color to an all-white space without requiring a lot of attention. So, if you’re looking for a touch of fun while maintaining a neutral aesthetic, these cookware could be the answer.
