Gillian Segal designs a space that is just as glamourous as it is laid-back.
“Laid-back glamour” doesn’t have to be an oxymoron, as this chic Palm Beach kitchen from Vancouver-based interior designer Gillian Segal proves. “We wanted to create a space that was transitional from the intimate day-to-day of raising kids to hosting, connecting and entertaining,” says Segal.
This warm, welcoming space features plenty of California luxury—like the swaggy glass-chain Trueing Studio fixture, the luxe asymmetrical waterfall marble countertop and the crisply tailored leather Thomas Hayes stools—but, at its heart, it’s also intensely family friendly. Hardwearing materials like leather and stone will weather gracefully through big parties and kid messes, and the streamlined palette of warm camels, golds and whites keep the room from feeling fussy.
