“I had never worked with a blue palette before,” says Glenn Ban, a designer better known for neutrals and organic pieces. But, inspired by the blues and whites in Tiina Laakkonen’s (now closed) shop in Amagansett, New York, he decided to branch out and try ocean hues for his cottage in Provincetown, Massachusetts.
Sourcing from P-Town shops, antique dealers, and Ikea, Ban created the perfect blue, white, and breezy kitchen.
Above: The Ikea kitchen features wood Karlby countertops and a Grundtal stainless steel rack, now discontinued. (Scroll down for an alternative.) Above: Ban stashes the Ikea table, along with a few other pieces, over the winter in a storage locker. The Danish midcentury chairs came from Beall & Bell on the North Fork. Above: The vintage midcentury Danish and German pottery vases are from Ruby Beets. The James Keating work on the left was a gift, and the abstract work on the right is by Jen Bradley from the Schoolhouse Gallery in Provincetown.
Furniture
Above: The Ikea dining table Ban selected is no longer sold at Ikeas in the US. For a similar look, try the Voxlöv Dining Table; $400. Above: Hans Wegner’s CH37 Armchair is $1,470 at Lekker Home.
Above: Ban bought his white Spherical Paper Lantern ($9.50 for the 24-inch size) at Pearl River Mart in NYC, but it’s currently out of stock. Instead, try Ikea’s smaller Regolit lantern; $4.99. Above: The Ashfield Table Lamp is $399 at Schoolhouse.
Details
Above: Ban has several blue serving bowls on display. Similar: cobalt blue bowls by Terrafirma Ceramics. Above: Ikea’s 365+ kitchen basics line features some attractive cork options, including coasters, water bottles, and this glass Pitcher with Lid; $9.99. Above: The Verso Table Vase is $135 from Ferm Living. Above: Ikea’s Rinnig Dish Towels are $4.99 for a pack of four.
Above: John Derian carries a good number of stylish blue pillows; browse here.
