Remodelista

I have to admit that when I walked onto the set of the Martha Stewart Show a couple of weeks ago, I was a bit star struck—not just by Martha, but also by her set kitchen, which is modeled after the one in her Bedford, New York, house. Here are a few ideas for accessorizing the look (for appliance, cookware, and countertop resources listings, go to Martha Stewart).

Above: We like the open shelving, the vintage pitchers used for utentsil storage, the vintage rolling pins as decor, and the understated simple cabinet knobs. The cabinet paint is Mourning Dove Gray (MS 151) and the wall paint is Evening Moth (MS 173), both from the Martha Stewart Colors line, which will be sold through Home Depot beginning in March of 2010.

Above: Simple Baldwin Round Cabinet Knob in satin nickel finish; $6 for 1-inch diameter knob at Designer Hardware. 

Above: Martha Stewart's porcelain Large Whiteware Pitcher is $32 at Macy's. See 10 Easy Pieces: Basic Kitchen Pitchers for more ideas.

Above: Vintage Rolling Pins; collected from antiques and vintage stores across the US; $49 each at Napa Style.

Above: White marble mortar and pestle by Magnus Lundstrum; $60 at the Cooper Hewitt Shop.

Above: Martha's sink is a custom double-width marble sink outfitted with a pair of Czech & Speake Edwardian Cross Top Two-Hole Sink Bridge Mixers. The curved spout is pivotable for ease of use; available in chrome, platinum, platinum matte, or Durabrass finishes; £550 for the 8-inch-spread chrome faucet at Czech & Speake.

Above: Porcelain Soap Dish; $12 at Brook Farm General.

Above: We're converts to the Martha Stewart Clean Home line, which features products that are 99 percent plant- and mineral-based, with no added fragrances or coloring. We especially like the Martha Stewart Clean Dish/Hand Soap with peel-off label, and the unscented Martha Stewart Clean ishwasher Detergent. Available through Amazon and Home Depot.

Above We like the Limmaren Bottles for dispensing dishwashing liquid; $7.99 for a set of three bottles at Ikea. For more ideas see Domestic Science: Sink Accessory Roundup.

Santa Ana, California, might not have the same cachet as Murano, Italy, but it's where RISD grad and glass maker Caleb Siemon has made his home. Siemon, who studied in Murano under the famous glass sculptor Pino Signoretto, is renowned for his glass vases and bowls. We are particularly taken with his line of lighting,  especially the Happy Kiss Lights (shown below), which emit a glowing, refracted light. Available through Lightopia.

Above: Happy Kiss Light in sargasso, $500.

   Above: Happy Kiss Light in lime, $500.

Above: Thick Clear Barnacle Pendant, $1,000.

Above: Thick Clear Beehive Pendant, $1,000. 

Admirers of Kerry Cassill's clothing line may not be aware that her signature Indian prints are also available in a bedding line produced under the Paisley Label, available online. Southern Californians can also visit her store, Lala, in Laguna Beach.

Above L: King Duvet from $365. Above R: Queen King Flatsheet, $128.

Amenity is an LA–based collaboration between two graphic designers, Nicole Chiala and Kristina de Corpo, who aspire to merge nature and modern design. We are currently admiring (and coveting) Amenity's Arroyo collection of tabletop accessories, crafted and hewn by hand from FSC-certified walnut and hand-oiled to enhance the beauty of the wood grain. If you are in Los Angeles, the designers welcome visitors to the Amenity Studio Mondays through Thursdays.

In today's Architect Visit: From the Desk of Lola, we admired the 16-inch Round Felt Cushions from Canvas (an offshoot of Ochre, one of our favorite lines). The Nepalese 100 percent wool cushions are $150 each and are available through Ochre in New York (for a square pillow alternative, consider FilzFelt's Square Felt Pillows, starting at $60).
