THE LOOK / KITCHEN + BATH

WHITE OUT It’s a tall order to make a place once the stomping grounds of Frank Sinatra and Winston Churchill even more fabulous than it was before. In his reimagining of the historic Surf Club Hotel and Residences in Miami, though, architect Richard Meier does just that, thanks in part to the project’s high-style kitchens with their custom Boffi cabinetry and white marble islands that give the spaces a feeling as fresh as salt air. thesurfclub.com

Part of the luxury of a hotel room snooze is what happens when it’s over—that next morning when you wake up to breakfast being rolled in on a room-service cart. In addition to fresh fruit and pain au chocolat, a resort-worthy meal typically includes a steaming beaker of French press coffee. This vessel from Bodum features a decorative copper frame, which protects the glass container and adds a splash of eye candy to your kitchen countertop. bodum.com

When artists parlay their talents into new creative outlets, the results are often fascinating. So, when English painter Rebecca Thompson tried her hand at decorating a series of boutique villas on the island of Grenada, it’s no surprise the final product was beautiful. Here, vaulted lightwood ceilings and white wicker barstools add an effortlessly bohemian vibe, while stainlesssteel European appliances and modern light fi xtures keep the shabby-chic factor at bay. Painted blue cabinets reflective of the sky and sea add a playful pop of color. macabana.com
