Accessories: Leather-Handled Bucket from Casamidy
From Julie:
Jorge Alameda from Casamidy, based in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, sent us photos of his latest design: A utilitarian galvanized metal bucket made luxurious with finely crafted leather handles. “I use the pail as a trashcan in my office; the strap is doubled leather so it’s very rigid and luxe,” he says. The Casamidy Bucket is available directly from Casamidy; the 11-inch high bucket is $60, the 10-inch high bucket is $50, the 8-inch high is $35, and the 7-inch high is $30.

Kitchen: Henrybuilt Workspace Component System
From Janet:
Seattle-based Henrybuilt, maker of our favorite kitchen systems, has introduced an array of functional and aesthetically pleasing kitchen workspace components, including a cutting board, colander, and knife holder. Made of high-density plastic or wood, the pieces are designed to integrate with the backsplash system and countertop area around the sink. Henrybuilt tells us that additional components will be introduced later in 2009. For more information, contact Henrybuilt or visit their Seattle or New York showrooms.
Above: The workspace components attach to the backsplash via small buttons; designed with ease of installation in mind, the system’s modular backsplash panels hang via a cleat bracket system.

Kitchen: Concealed Toaster Niche
From Sarah:
If you favor uncluttered countertops but want easy accessibility to modern conveniences, take a cue from this San Francisco kitchen by Hulburd Design. The toaster is cleverly concealed on a pull-out tray behind a custom panel door.
