Kitchen Metal Counters Marble Backsplashes Design Photos and Ideas

Two of chef André Chiang’s restaurants have appeared on the annual World’s 50 Best Restaurants list.

To outfit it, André worked with Vipp, the maker of everything from the black steel island and stainless-steel countertops to the faucets, cabinets, shelves, pendant light fixtures—even the tea kettle and trash bin.
