•What a Kitchen Pro Knows: "This modern kitchen made my heart skip a beat. I love the Macassar wood, the roll out dining table, and the embedded basin sink. Check out the photos and the kitchen tips too -- they're really insightful." (Thanks for the tip, Janice!) •Cul de Sac: Robot plates from a Vancouver ceramic studio. •Halloween placemats: Make it a tasteful holiday. •Faber-Castell: "Talking of color! I assume this is part of the Faber Castell coloring pencil factory in Germany. I wonder if they'll turn the utility pole into a giant pencil?" (Thanks for the color tip, Peter!)
