City kitchen, country bloom
This Manhattan apartment kitchen, designed by Robert Caigan Associates, was the epitome of sophisticated living in 1968. “The strong solids of white, walnut, sun yellows are given buoyancy and a delicate linkage by the wallpaper, its flowers colored to order,” according to House Beautiful. “A room in praise of the fact that city dwellers need not sacrifice space and sunniness in the happy pursuit of sophisticated life.”
and a social security death date. Hmm...
This is the beginning of an adventure. Somewhere between play, curiosity, possibility, outrage and a daughter's thought of 'what if?'

This kitchen is a trip. It's so classic, and it's funny how the article describes the wallpaper as "delicate." It's funny to think that was the "height of sophistication" back then and looks so dated now.
