A SINGLE GENTLEMAN WHO HAD RECENTLY MOVED into a cookie-cutter retirement community wanted a home that reflected his masculine taste and love of entertaining. He is also a huge Harley Davidson fan and wanted that theme artfully displayed in his new kitchen. The homeowner specifically sought out Nar Bustamante of Sacremento, Calif.-based Nar Design Group because he had seen photos of a Prince-themed kitchen he had done and knew he was the designer for the job. "Part of an extensive home remodel, this kitchen design was born of one man's love of all things Harley Davidson, and he wanted it to be classy - not cheesy," said Bustamante. "Color inspiration came from the client's own cherished bike, which is a stunning combination of matte black and brushed steel." Although the previous builder-grade kitchen was a good size, it was oddly U-shaped with two angled peninsulas and a small island that divided the dysfunctional space. Besides encapsulating the biker theme, the client also wanted a large kitchen in which to entertain that was easy to clean and had a lot of attitude.
