A kitchen without color can be as effective as a rainbow scheme. Designer Everett Brown, A.I.D., saw his kitchen as a neutral background to be spiced by the colors of food and the presence of people (his family includes two children, many pets). All-white cabinets, equipment, ceramic tile floor, countertops, plastic topped table and plastic-upholstered chairs are smooth-surfaced and easy to clean. Decorative elements are the largescale geometric wallpaper in white, black and gray and floor-to-ceiling open shelving. 4" deep, which keeps glasses and cups accessible between cooking and dining areas. The dining area overlooks a walled garden of simple flowers geraniums, marguerites.
