BEJEWELLED KITCHENS The kitchen has long since become the heart of the home, and now designers are dressing it up accordingly. Kelly Wearstler and  Stephen Gambrel  are fitting out kitchens with elaborate custom cabinetry painted in rich gemstone colours, and accented with gleaming brass or chrome, all lit by unusual lighting fixtures.
