A clean kitchen is a triumph of the modern era. Show this to a caveman or a renaissance era scholar and claim two middle-age adults with at least one child and a dog accomplished it in less than an hour. They will praise it as a miracle.

Im sure the caveman would be impressed, probably more by the knives than any organizational aspect, but i feel like scholars in the renaissance had plenty of experience this keeping things organized. This picture of an alchemy workshop is like organizational goals for me. Its full but not cluttered and it looks cozy as fuck. 
Its full but not cluttered and it looks cozy as fuck.
I guess we're operating on different definitions of "cluttered". Although, I'll happily cede it looks cozy, I would be afraid to swing my elbows without knocking over something extremely rare and expensive.
If space was at a premium, sure, but I'd hate to have this in our kitchen.
Unless that window has a view of a brick wall I agree. Also butcher block with a drying rack dripping on it isn't gonna last long.
Um but wtf is all the water draining to? The work surfaces?
Also imagine knocking this over. Fml.
Most of the stuff that needs draining should flow mostly into the sink, but I do agree it looks like one could get where you don't want.
As for knocking it over, the "feet" look relatively sturdy, so ideally that would be difficult to do.
Those knives would get absolutely backsplashed by bacteria.
They'd also be very difficult to place and remove.

Why you gotta attack me personally‽
A mix of jealousy and be being an awful person
Lol! Love you homie!
Love you more!
Doubtful, but willing to be proven wrong.

I prefer the Dutch cabinet (I think that’s what they’re called) is what I want. It’s basically that except it’s in a cabinet.
I just have a dishwasher so this would be a bit overkill.
So, the art is a bit deceiving. We have a few things that can't go in the dishwasher - the espresso pot which would be ruined in the machine, a few bigger pots and serving bowls that don't fit neatly, some of my son's high chair components that get gunked between meals, our nice set of enameled chopsticks that need to be hand-washed - and this works great to keep them out of the sink while we're doing the rest of the kitchen.
But I agree, there's no reason 90% of the image art stuff can't just go in the dishwasher normally.
Looks neat and space efficient, but I have questions about why someone keeps fruit next to the dishes.

I have one of these and it's pretty cool. The knife holder thing sucks ass though, idk who thought that was a good idea.
