    [2018 article about the backsplash](https://www.domino.com/content/mosaic-kitchen-backsplash-williamsburg-renovation/). [More pics and information](https://www.apartmenttherapy.com/a-bold-brooklyn-rental-features-one-of-the-coolest-diy-tile-backsplashes-weve-ever-seen-37074850), including interview with the tenant. [Article showing the renovation process](https://www.thekitchn.com/renovation-diaries-christine-han-23303246). Apparently, the backsplash was inspired by the [1988 Seoul Olympics logo](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d6/1988_Summer_Olympics_logo.svg) according to the first article, but I don’t know if the resemblance is there. According to the third article, the cabinet color was inspired by [Goryeo ware](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goryeo_ware), which seems more tenable.

    It’s very cute. I wonder how there is no venting for the stove. Is it built into the range? I’m also amazed at how many kitchens eliminate upper cabinets.

    Wonderful kitchen but a bit pre-k school looking with that backsplash

    I came here to say that backsplash is unreal. Then I read the first line.

    I love everything about this. Well done for real

    The refrigerator door hinges need to be swapped so the hinges are on the left side. That way you can grab stuff while cooking without having to step around the open door.

    All that shit above the stove will be covered in grease if they use the range often.

    Am I missing something? This kitchen is extremely unappealing and counterintuitive.
