Kitchen: Storage to Go

From Julie:

Last week we posted a kitchen on wheels by French architects Karine Chartier and Thomas Corbasson, which got us thinking about portable storage for the most used room in the house. Improbably, Chef’s Catalog has some of the best pieces we’ve seen, made of solid oak and recycled steel. Streamlined proportions, too. And currently on sale.

Below: SoMa Kitchen Pantry Shelf 48 inches wide, 79 inches high; $699 (on sale from $1,500).

Steal This Look: Mirrored Bath

From Julie:

We love the mix of mod (streamlined built-in marble sink, sleek oval bath) and trad (cloth-cord pendant lamp, vintage mirrors) in this all-white bath.
