DIY: Watercolor Japanese Lantern

To be filed under "Do try this at home": watercolor-splashed Japanese paper lanterns, courtesy of Danish textile and product designer Ditte Maigaard, who runs the Ditte Maigaard Studio.


To see more DIY products from this inventive Dane, go to Made by Maigaard.


Regolit Pendant Lamp Shades


Above: Maigaard bought a trio of "anonymous, cheap" Regolit Pendant Lamp Shades from Ikea ($4.99 each) and created a hanging lamp "made much more interesting with watercolor paint."



Above: A detail shot of Maigaard's handiwork.


Faber Castle's Watercolor Paint Set


Above: Maigaard used standard-issue watercolors; for something similar, consider Faber Castle's Watercolor Paint Set, $8.99 from Amazon.



Above: The lanterns installed over Maigaard's dining table.


Here at Remodelista, we have a weakness for inexpensive paper lanterns. See DIY: Ombre Pink Paper Lamp Shade and Five Favorites: Paper Lantern DIYs.

Design Sleuth: 5 Bathroom Mirrors with Shelves

How useful: bathroom mirrors with a shelf for assorted sundries. We especially like the vintage-looking 1930s French models, but here are a few modern options as well.

Above: A pair of midcentury modern vanities are a perfect foil for this contemporary bath in Australia by Wonder.


Astoria Mirror Restoration Hardware/Remodelista


Above: The Astoria Mirror with Tray is available in two sizes (the small is 28 inches high and the large is 36 inches high) and four finishes; prices range from $415 to $635 at Restoration Hardware.


Ben Pentreath Mirror with Shelf/Remodelista


Above: The Bathroom Mirror with Shelf is £70 at Ben Pentreath.


Bobrick Bath MIrror/Remodelista


Above: The institutional-grade Bobrick Welded Frame Mirror with Shelf is $207.95 from Global Industries.


Fullen Ikea Mirror/Remodelista

Steal This Look: Ace Hotel in LA Bathroom

Whenever a new Ace Hotel opens, we always seem to gravitate to the bathroom design. The just-finished Ace in LA, with interiors by Commune, is no exception. We'd happily copy the bathrooms in our own homes. You, too? Here's how:


Photos via Ace Hotel.


Ace Hotel Los Angeles Bathroom/Remodelista


Above: The black and white palette of the bath is reminiscent of the early days of cinema (note the thumbnail photo of Louise Brooks).


Ace Hotel Los Angeles Steal This Look/Remodelista


Above: Commune used metal factory windows to delineate the bathrooms from the bedrooms; for inspiration, see 10 Glamorous Baths, Metal Factory Window Edition.


Ace Hotel Bathroom Los Angeles/Remodelista


Above: Exposed concrete walls keep the space from looking too "done."


Bradley Wall Sconce Robert Abbey/Remodelista


Above: The Robert Abbey Bradley Bronze Wall Sconce measures 15.25 inches wide and can be hung vertically or horizontally; $297.91 from Lamps Plus.


Happy D Sink Duravit/Remodelista


Above: Designed by Philippe Starck for Duravit, the Happy D Washbasin Console is a modern classic; $522.90 from Quality Bath.


Tara Dornbracht Black Faucet/Remodelista


Above: Dornbracht's Wall-Mounted Basin Mixer in matte black is $1,760 from Decorative Plumbing.


Schoolhouse Electric Pushbutton Light Switch/Remodelista


Above L: The Schoolhouse Electric Push Button One Gang Coverplate is $18. Above R: The Schoolhouse Electric push button Three-Way Dimmer Switch is $49.


Pearl Soap Ace Hotel/Remodelista


Above: Pearl+ Detox Soaps, handmade in Portland, OR, contain crushed natural pearl, charcoal powder, and a blend of oils; a pair of Large Peal+ Detox Soap Bars is $12; a set of four Small Peal+ Detox Soap Bars is also $12.


Michael Verheyden Niez Black Leather Tissue Box/Remodelista


Above: The Niez Tissue Box Cover by Michael Verheyden is made of hand-sewn saddle leather (also available in white); CA $160 at Espace D.


Rudys Barbershop Soap Trio/Remodelista


Above: Simplify your bathing routing with a trio of products developed for Davines for Rudy's Barbershop: a 16 oz bottle of #1 Shampoo is $20, a 16 oz bottle of #2 Conditioner is $24, and a 16 oz bottle of #3 Body Wash is $20. Looking for a wall-mounted bottle caddy for your shower? Consider a Soap & Lotion Caddy ($15.95) from Williams-Sonoma.


Louise Brooks Tile Coaster/Remodelista


Above: Did you notice the mini photo of Louise Brooks reflected in the bath mirror? For something similar, consider the porcelain Louise Brooks Tile Coaster; $12.50 from Cafe Presse.


Remodelista's Steal This Look column runs every Monday. Have a look at our past Steal This Looks, including A Black and White Bathroom with a Gothic Edge and our previous Ace Hotel Bath.

DIY: Ceiling Medallion from The Brick House

At our recent holiday market in LA, Sarah and I finally got a chance to meet one of our blogosphere friends, Morgan Satterfield of The Brick House (she was one of our vendors, selling her Camp line of clever DIY wares, which include leather cabinet pulls, beaded lights, and her own Simple Light fixtures). We've been following The Brick House forever, taking inspiration from Morgan's clever upgrades to her mid-century house near Palm Springs. So it was a thrill to finally meet and talk shop and see her wares in person.


Our latest DIY obsession? Morgan's minimalist ceiling medallion; for step-by-step instructions, go to The Brick House.

Office Visit: Evernote in Redwood CIty, CA

Enhanced productivity through plants? Designed by San Francisco-based O + A, the Silicon Valley offices of Evernote feature an exuberant explosion of tillandsias against a white wall. That plus a work environment "attuned to informal collaboration, with a large communal dining room and plenty of spaces to promote casual interactions." We're guessing productivity is soaring.


Photos by Jasper Sanidad via O + A.



Above: In the reception area, tillandsias are arraying in a starburst formation against a white wall



Above: Up close, you can see that individual tillandsias are mounted on metal plant holders. Each thigmotrope holds a single tillandsia. A steel plant hook that screws into a wall, a set of three Thigmotrope Satellites is $40 from Flora Grubb.


Evernote Silicon Valley Living Wall/Remodelista


Above: "The strict budget and swift pace of construction helped determine the direction of the design," according to the designers. "In lieu of expensive interior branding, Evernote hired chalk artist Dana Tanamachi to draft a wall-sized representation of the company's identity."


Evernote Silicon Valley/Remodelista


Above: The designers clad the reception are in Douglas fir plywood: "the texture and grain of which provide their own graphic patterns."


Evernote Silicon Valley/Remodelista


Above: "Adding to the informality is our placement of a coffee bar at the reception station."

The Whale Wins: A Seattle Restaurant Inspired by the Sea

A 2013 James Beard finalist for Best New Restaurant, the Whale Wins is the latest venture from chef Renee Erickson of the (similarly) whimsically named Walrus and the Carpenter. Located in a converted warehouse space, the restaurant's interiors were designed by Heliotrope Architects and feature an airy, casual feel. (Oh, and about the name: Erickson was inspired by a painting by American folk artist Mary Maguire depicting a whaling scene.)

DIY: Dramatic Floor Stencils

Spotted (and admired) in the showroom of Chairloom in Philadelphia: rough-hewn factory floors embellished with dramatic stencils. Read on to discover how to achieve a similar look.


Chairloom founders Tracy Jenkins and Molly Andrews believe in second chances. If it works for their furniture (they specialize in resuscitating old pieces), it also seems to work for the beat-up floor they found in their new showroom space. Rather than sanding the character out of the floor, they took an additive approach and asked their friend Ilene Pearlman to come in and cover the 1,000-square-foot space with dramatic stencils, proving that everything deserves a second chance.

Above: Pearlman created a stencil out of large piece of corrugated cardboard which she found in a dumpster. Pearlman spent three days designing the stencil and preparing it by cutting it out and laminating the entire stencil with tape to keep it from absorbing moisture from the paint. From point to point, the stencil measures 5 feet.

Above: Pearlman uses a roller to apply the paint while her mother holds the stencil in place. Rather than prime the area first and then paint over it, she saved a step by just using primer. A protective coat of polyurethane was applied on top of the stencils. Painting the stencils took her two days.
