I have always loved the metal cabinets from the 30's to 50's but finding them was not easy. When I renovated my prewar 1930's New York apartment I wanted desperately to do a retro kitchen to go with my art deco furnishings. I didn't have the time nor the energy to really research the kitchen cabinets and finally ended up spending a fortune on a gorgeous St. Charles kitchen. I am currently looking for another apartment in Manhattan and want to definitely find the cabinets I have always wanted. You posted on this page an article in the NYT I believe April 11, 2008 on Geneva steel cabinets. I went onto the NYT website but couldn't find the article. I am hoping you may have a copy and can perhaps post it on your site or send me a copy. Now that I have the time to do my research on the cabinets and retro appliances I will be on your site quite often. Thank you for any help you can give me. Alida Hi:

If Alice is switching out the wallpaper, that's another great recommendation. Yes, Kimberly — I agree that yellow cabinets with a red floor makes for a great color combination.

It's quite a nice mix that works well to update the look without losing it's vintage feel entirely. I like the red floor and vintage chair with the yellow steel cabinets and stainless appliances.
