    It depends on who these people are and what, if any, relationship you want to maintain.

    Is that the kitchen in, well, a "house of ill repute"? Or a strip club?

    I guess I'd smile wide and ask where he's going to install the dance pole.

    My old dentist's office had a restroom that got similar comments. Apparently he'd done a bunch of dental work for a contractor and the patient paid off his fee "in trade", with the stipulation that he could use materials left over from a previous job. Black marble tile on the floor, dark mirrored tile on the walls and ceiling, gold-plated fixtures...I always expected to see a razor blade and powder residue on the counter.
    Yoga class makes me feel like a total stud, mostly because I'm about as flexible as a 2x4.
    "Design"? Possibly. "Intelligent"? Sure doesn't look like it from this angle.

    It makes a small galley style kitchen look big.

    It looks like a kitchen for a pimpmobile.

    I would just say it looks great. Costs you nothing, hurts no one. It just validates your friend on work he probably cannot undo anyway.

    Every baby, prom picture, and kitchen of a friend is just gorgeous to me.

    I just remembered that when I was a kid the custom car magazines were full of “diamond tufted “ car seats. Everybody liked them.
