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.

Is it the approach of summer that has us thinking about watery green glass as an interior accent?
