Ina Garten’s Old-World Kitchen Art Is 2027’s Coziest Trend

A kitchen wall might not be the first place that comes to mind when you think of hanging oil paintings in gilded frames – especially when it is a chef’s kitchen, as in Ina Garten’s case. Yet in her East Hampton home, a small grid of fruit still lifes hangs behind the island, bringing a traditional note to the otherwise practical space.

Set against neutral walls and stainless steel, the antiqued-gold frames give the kitchen a sense of history without competing with its more utilitarian details. It’s an old-school way of decorating – one that elevates how we see kitchen artwork as we look into the year ahead.
