What looks at first glance to be a custom kitchen in London turns out to be a clever amalgamation of off-the-shelf Ikea components. Recreate the look using the elements below:
Below: Farrow & Ball Vert de Terre paint.
Below: Low-cost Arctic White subway tiles from Daltiles or authentic glossy tile from Subway Ceramics.
Below L: Polished aluminum Deja-Vu Counter Stool from Magis; $450 at Nova 68. Below R: Emeco Counter Stools from Design Within Reach; $305 to $760 depending on finish. (Also, investigate our 10 Easy Pieces: Counter Stools post.)
Below: Ikea’s Varde Base Cabinet in birch and white laminate, with stainless leg caps and nickel handles; $329.
Below: Ikea’s Varde Glass Door Wall Cabinet; $169.

We confess we’re not always fond of wall decals, but we love the whimsical graphic stickers from French company Harmonie Interieur. Prices start at €22 for a 60 by 35 centimer decal (US shoppers can use PayPal or credit cards); peruse the line at Harmonie Interieure.

Legendary British designer Celia Birtwell is having a second moment (her first was as a clothing designer in the swinging sixties outfitting the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and Twiggy) as a fabric and textile designer; she has operated an interior design showroom in Notting Hill since the eighties. Her Beasties and Little Animals fabric and wallpaper has us in raptures. Available at Suzan Fellman Showroom in Los Angeles and Lucy Rose in Chicago. The fabric is also available at UK website Fabrics and Papers for £50 a meter; the wallpaper is £55 per roll. View her entire line at Celia Birtwell, where you can also buy the fabric directly (don’t miss the Sale Bin, where Beasties 100 percent cotton fabric in pink can currently be found for £24 a meter).

From Janet:
Land of Nod’s new In Bloom Crib Bedding is so reminiscent of the famed Orla Keily Stem pattern that it could be called a knock-off. You certainly can call it a nice look for a baby room that leaves cutesy behind. $220 for the crib set at Land of Nod.
Below: Pay a visit to Orla Keily’s new website, which offers a good introduction to her designs (wildly popular in the UK). Weary parents can sip coffee from coordinated Orla Keily Mugs, £10 at Orla Keily.
