One of our all time favorite projects at Remodelista is the Setagaya Tokyo Apartment, designed by Naruse Inokuma Architects. The deconstructed industrial kitchen is made from concrete blocks, larch plywood, and stainless steel and outfitted with an eclectic mix of Japanese kitchenware. Here, we?ve dissected the dining room/kitchen for a list to borrow from.

Above: The apartment is characterized by accidental beauty: After stripping wallpaper the architects discovered the gray wall marking but left the patina as a feature rather than covering it up.

Above: A larch plywood countertop and open shelves surround the stainless steel sink. On the far end of the kitchen sits a cooktop, vent, and undercounter refrigerators from a restaurant supply store.

Above: A few small appliances and Japanese ceramic dishes fill the open shelving.
