The chef and jury of Master chef Samantha Vallejo Najera does not need much introduction but today we sneak into your family apartment in Madrid, to discover some details of his comfortable and practical house in which yes, The kitchen is the nerve center of the house.
If you are one of those who, like me, believe that houses are a true reflection of their owners, I confirm that Samantha’s house meets expectations. Her house (like her way of dressing) is colorful and vital and, just as she wears funny large earrings, in her house she also surrounds herself with objects with a lot of strength and color.
In his social network profile, he shows us many details of his house and confesses that the one in the image above is one of his favorite corners. It is a kitchen shelf that mixes everything from kitchenware to decorative accessories that have color in common.
The large kitchen with island that welcomes you when you enter
Upon entering Samantha’s house you are greeted by a large kitchen islandin which you cook, eat and live, in short. kitchen furniture have an elegant light green shade with “T” handles. A timeless and fresh base to receive the large appliances (pay attention to the size of your fridge) that are located on the sides of the island. The granite countertop island houses a large gas stove and the continuous bar in a large wooden island for informal meals or better yet, not to miss a detail of the chef’s cooking.
On one side of the kitchen, in front of the appliances, open shelves hold everything you need to cook.
The industrial touch is given by the signature installations of ceiling spotlights and the air conditioning pipe that crosses the kitchen from side to side.
The color note put all the accessories, jars, vases and of course the color that put their cocottes Le Creuset cast iron.
On the other side of the front door is the large dining room. With a large capacity to receive family and friends, on one side there is a large green bench facing the wooden chairs of colonial style to result in a warm and very functional dining room.
In addition to the green of the furniture, the green of the plants also floods the dining room with a leafy Kentia.
The living room with ethnic touches and many cushions to sit on
At Samantha’s house a nice decorative trick (She is the stepdaughter of interior designer Paco Muñoz for a reason). On a very neutral base color is added through textiles and decorative objects but, devoid of these elements, the flat could star in a Zara Home editorial of those beige on beige, raw walls (without plastering) included. Added to these neutral walls is a beautiful herringbone parquet floor with matte varnish.
Attention to the center tables. They practice a very decorative maximalism but they seem to be the mythical Ikea Lack tables.
Behind so much color hides two white sofas and some fun red mats to sit around the coffee tables.
Two large natural fiber screens have been chosen for the ceiling, and cushions and blankets with ethnic touches are presented in this space and others, such as the bedroom.
