By my definition, a summertime kitchen is neither too casual as to be grungy nor too styled or structured to be stuffy or formal. This room, well-appointed but not overdone, is just right. Its focus on people rather than performance suits the season especially well. My one question: Can the single dishwasher handle all those plates?
