I’m usually not much for chandeliers, they seem too grandiose for any kind of residential setting but ironically I love them in a pair in this kitchen. The feeling of this house is certainly an ornate one but somehow it also feels very much like a home. It looks like a place where in some distant past there might be servants working but now it seems sure to be inhabited by a caring homemaker.
I agree, this house is elegant but not pretentious. I think the lighting is a good example of this, the aforementioned kitchen chandeliers reflect natural light from a wide comfortable garden window. The dual character of French and Californian living is executed perfectly.
