Steal This Look: A Botanical Stylist’s Creative Kitchen Remodel in London

May 12, 2020

Leave it to a botanical stylist to come up with a kitchen like this one: serene and bright, with an installation of dried and living botanical displays. It’s the kitchen of Yasuyo Harvey, who got her start in London working with designer Faye Toogood. Yasuyo and her husband, Phil, remodeled the kitchen of their 1930s house in Worcester Park with the help of friend Ryuta Hirayama, who works with architects Jonathan Tuckey Design. The plans included an extension, custom maple plywood cabinetry, and white composite countertop. Here’s a list of the key elements along with sources for glassware and baskets:

The faucet is made from plumbing parts for a budget, DIY option (for more see Trend Alert: 10 DIY Faucets Made from Plumbing Parts).
