Celebrity-Designer Designed Galley??
I was wondering if anyone out there in the yachting community has ever
heard of the celebrity kitchen designer Stephen Rabinowitz?? I was looking on eBay for something to give my husband who is a chef and wants to get our home kitchen redone and maybe our future yacht galley redone. He always talks about how kitchens are poorly designed and how you can't just have Home Depot design your kitchen on a computer video game and expect to get a well thought-out design.... I am skeptical to bid. Although at $300 for hand-drafted design, it seems like I shoud jump on it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=23646430 64 That designer evidently designed one of Frank Sinatra's kitchens and gives speeches about "ill conceived kitchen designs." It looks like he will design one person's kitchen in a while as he is in his 60s now (he studied Frank Lloyd Wright and Aero Saarinan in the 1950s and onward at Yale I think) and has attained a level of success. Any thoughts?? |

That would be Eero Saarinen, who designed, among other buildings, the Yale hockey rink in New Haven. Upon visitng the Yale campus once, Wright was asked where he'd like to stay. "In Harkness Tower," he reportedly said, referring to the gothic tower on the old campus. Why? "So I don't have to look at it when I wake up in the morning." -- Email sent to is never read. |

If money is no object...why not.
I wouldn't have Home Depot or any other hardware/building supply store do mine either. When we did our kitchen this year, my wife invited a couple of the better known and respected companies come over and submit plans. She picked the best design although it was a bit more expensive. We were able to keep the cost below $20KCdn by doing a lot of the tearout/construction work ourselves. note: the price included a new fridge and a glasstop convection/selfcleaning oven range.

Any thoughts?? Yes, I think this is spam. Either is not a very good designer or is spam. My daughter is one of the top interior designers for model homes in Calif and she would surely charge a lot more than $300. |

I have since talked to someone who spent $8,500 on a design from
Rabinowitz to go in to a penthouse apartment on 5th avenue in manhattan. That was just the design! The rest of the kitchen was in excess of $100,000... "Calif Bill" wrote in message link.net...

Hey Foad Carlton. I feel sorry for you. I've just taken the step of
reporting you to Google Groups for policy violation....NOT! You didn't violate any policy by what you said, and guess what....(DRUM ROLL)...either did I! I'll bet you have really thick, plastic rimmed glasses and you're a total nerd. Give people a break who are trying to get some advice from usenet groups. Michelle (Carlton) wrote in message . com... (Michelle) wrote in message . com... Which part is spam? The part I wrote?? Michelle Even worse, a top posting spammer. As you didn't take the hint first time around, I have just reported you to ebay for policy violation. Foad Carlton Any thoughts?? Yes, I think this is spam. |
