• A Seat at the Table: The New Dining Chair from Ochre
• Current Obsessions: Giving Thanks
• Living in Style—with Kids: 7 Get-Real Solutions

London chef, stylist, and vegetarian cookbook author Anna Jones wants to change the way we eat. And if my steak-loving teenage sons—who recently ate a week’s worth of her recipes without missing meat—are anything to go by, she's on a fast track to success. In her recently published first cookbook, A Modern Way to Eat, Jones, one of Jamie Oliver’s original apprentices at his restaurant Fifteen, offers nourishing, tasty, and quick recipes for people with busy lifestyles. “I believe that eating should be joyful, but as soon as rules, pressure, and diets are linked with eating, we lose track of that joy,” she says.

We recently stopped by to visit Jones in the semi-detached Victorian that she shares with her boyfriend John Dale in East London. "Two Swedish friends used a lovely Swedish expression to describe my house," she says. "They translated it as having the feeling of clean air and freshness—like having all the windows open. If I can make people feel that way in my home and with my food, I'll be a very happy girl." Come take the tour.

Photography by Jonathan Gooch for Remodelista.

Above: Anna Jones in the spot where she spends most of her time. "A Modern Way to Eat was shot in my kitchen and all over the house," she says. "We chased the best light as it changed throughout the day; we even ended up shooting on the spare bed a couple of times."

Above: "I like to think that the way I work with flavor is reflected in how I put my house together," Jones says. "I begin with a calm canvas and then add layers of color and texture." In the front sitting room, Jones selected the Bluebell Sofa and Chair from Sofa.com for their deep seats and high backs—"I like a sofa that can be curled up on." The mirror on the wall by East End designer Daniel Heath is an antique piece that has been renewed with a hand-etched inscription and illustrations of birds.

Above: Jones layers the room with textiles and patterns. She purchased the vintage blanket from Welsh Blankets, a source she discovered at an antiques market. On the windows, she applied a frosted window sticker from Window Film. "This is an easy solution that lets the light come in while still giving us some privacy from the street," she says. "What I love the most about this particular design is how the light comes through in the morning, casting star patterns and shapes on the walls." For complete privacy, large panels of painted MDF with brass piano hinges can be pulled across the window like shutters. In Design Sleuth, Julie discusses the allure of the piano hinge.

Above: "In the winter we use our woodburning stove every day; it's one of my favorite things in the house," says Jones. "The steel bucket is full of wood and old newspapers for building fires, something my boyfriend takes very seriously."

Above: Artist/designer (and across-the-street neighbor) Russell Bamber built much of the cabinetry in Jones's house, including the interior shutters and the kitchen cabinets. In a niche in the living room, he devised a clever shelving system that is held in place by the force of gravity only. "No screws or fixings at all," Jones says, "they are completely adaptable and portable as we change and grow in our house."

Above: Jones's music corner is situated in what was formerly the rear sitting room. The wall between the front and rear sitting rooms was removed to create one large living room. "Music is really important to me," Jones says. "My brother Owen is an amazing guitar player and I love to hear him play when he comes to visit." The lace curtain shields a bathroom on the other side.

Above: A portable Crosley record player sits on a yellow Formica-topped desk from the Ardingly Antiques Fair, one of Jones's favorite places for sourcing props. "My dad recently gave me all of his old records—old soul and Motown, the O'Jays, Muddy Waters, and a lot of Beatles—that we've been playing and dancing to a lot," says Jones. "In the summer we often have dinners in the garden and we move the Crosley outside."

Above: A panel of striped frosted glass replaced a door; it draws light from the hallway into the living room.

Above: In the entry hall, Jones created a pegboard radiator cover. Julia Child would approve.

Above: Plywood cabinets by Russell Bamber lend the kitchen a casual and organic feel. "I love the cutout handles," Jones says. "They're such a simple and clean little design tweak." The vintage French glass pendant light is from Two Columbia Road.

Above: A set of knives are stored on a magnetic rack next to the sink for easy access.

Above: The wood dining table can seat as many as 15; it came from the Ardingly Antiques Fair. The Circus Pendant from the Conran Shop provides a warm glow over the table.

Above: "Most days, the table doubles as my desk while I try out new recipes," Jones says. A Modern Way to Eat, published by Fourth Estate and with photography by Brian Ferry, is shown here open to one of her favorite holiday recipes, Seeded Pistachio and Squash Galette. Now on its third print run since its launch in June, the book is available in the US through Amazon.com for $22.40 and in the UK through Amazon.co.uk for £17.

Above: The ground floor bathroom's curtain is lace that Jones purchased from Chappelle Rouge and dyed herself.

Above: In the bedroom, plywood shelves on wood brackets are built into a niche (note the Remodelista book on the second shelf).

Above: The French bed frame was an end-of-the day bargain from the Ardingly Antiques Fair. "The romantic headboard works in contrast to the calm of our room," Jones says. A simple radiator cover provides bench seating in the bay window.

Above: "I like keeping my clothes on show," Jones says. "I think in color, so seeing them lined up by shade makes it easier for me to put together an outfit."

Above: "I am a big fan of mixing pre-loved furniture with new things," says Jones of her flea market dresser. "It's much more affordable too."

Above: In the office upstairs, Jones looks out onto the the courtyard of a converted Victorian school. "Our house was orginally the caretaker's house," she says.

Above: Anna Jones's Victorian is similar to many of the houses in the East End of London.

If you're planning a trip to London, be sure to consult our London City Guides. Remodelista friend Heidi Swanson of 101 Cookbooks is a big fan of Anna Jones; check out Heidi Swanson's Travel Kit in our Style Council post.

Ochre’s new Sable Chair is a crowd-pleaser. With its elegant proportions and slim metal frame clad head to toe in leather (the kind that gets better with age), this is the chair that will always let you squeeze in just one more with effortless style.

Above: A group of Sable Chairs gathered around the Whippet Table. "An elegant dining table needs elegant chairs," says Harriet Maxwell Macdonald, a founding partner of Ochre, which has shops in London and New York City. "We wanted to create a discreet dining chair to match the delicately proportioned legs of our Whippet Table."

Above: The metal-frame chairs are wrapped in hand-dyed Italian saddle leather and have hand-sewn seams and scalloped corners.

Above: The chairs are available in seven colors, which range, says Maxwell Macdonald, from "natural rich browns and distant gray to a glamorous chili red." Beet is shown here.

Above: The corner detail of the Whippet Table shows how its fumed limed-oak top is inset into delicate metal legs. "The final result has a touch of ballet about it," says Maxwell Macdonald. Contact Ochre for pricing information on the Sable Chair and Whippet Table.

I've come to treat cookbook purchases the way I approach shopping for clothes: I only buy what I know I'll put to use and want to have around for a long time. No impulse purchases. I feel the same way about giving books. I want them to be read and used. Here are five that will resonate with a variety of palates and cooks.

Please note that we're fans of local bookstores, but for the sake of convenience, we've linked to Amazon here. 

Above: Back in 2009, Karen Mordechai was one of the first bloggers to start documenting her communal suppers in Brooklyn using food as a way to bring people together. Her cookbook Sunday Suppers: Recipes + Gatherings celebrates these get-togethers. Rather than being locked to a season or a style, the collection is categorized by time of day: morning, noon, afternoon, and evening. It's the sort of cookbook you can pick up and flip through until you find a recipe that resonates—perfect for days when you're short on culinary inspiration and looking for something easy and delicious to whip up. Sunday Suppers: Recipes + Gatherings is $23 from Amazon.

Above: I Know How to Cook by Ginette Mathiot is for someone looking to learn the basics of French cuisine from France's own Julia Child counterpart. (The original French title, Je Sais Cuisiner, sounds so much better; it was first published in 1932.) Mathiot wrote some 30 books in her lifetime—she died in 1998—and this one, now available for the first time in English, is her magnum opus. With over 1,400 recipes—most of them more about French home cooking than grand cuisine—it's a great resource. I Know How to Cook is $35 from Amazon.

Above: I am an ardent fan of Yotam Ottolenghi, the London-based Israeli chef who has just published Plenty More, which is yet another book on my wish list. A related title to consider is Honey & Co: Food from the Middle East by Sarit Packer and Itamar Srulovich. The couple are both Ottolenghi alums and in the summer, we wrote about Honey & Co., their tiny restaurant, which is one of our favorite London hangouts. Their recipes are easy to make but exotic enough to require tracking down a spice or two. The book also includes the best pistachio cake recipe I've ever made—you know, the one everyone wants the recipe for once they try it. Honey & Co: Food from the Middle East is $26 from Amazon.

Above: Last year's cookbook du jour was the award-winning Noma restaurant chef's book, Rene Redzipi: A Work in Progress. This year another Copenhagen restaurant is stealing the limelight: Relae: A Book of Ideas by Christian F. Puglisi. Based in Denmark, the Italian chef aims to serve grand food without the accompanying stuffiness—at Relae, he focuses on accessibility and humility in the food he serves and the same can be said of his book. Half is devoted to Puglisi's ideas and theories and the rest to recipes. Typically, I avoid prose-packed cookbooks, but this one has drawn me in and I love the cross-referencing of ingredient descriptions with recipes. Better still, unlike most books of this genre, many of the recipes are not too complicated for me to try. This book will resonate with the foodie and/or design aesthete (because it looks good on display). Relae: A Book of Ideas is $35 from Amazon.

Above: Anyone who follows Mimi Thorisson's blog, Manger, will no doubt have been seduced by her seemingly effortless French country life. In her farmhouse in the Medoc, children and dogs (in equal score) hover over tables abundant with fresh ingredients and just-baked tarts. In contrast to Ginette Mathiot's book (listed above), which presents classic French cuisine à la Julia, Thorisson's A Kitchen in France: A Year of Cooking in My Farmhouse is a slow seduction, equal parts rich lifestyle imagery and recipes. This one is definitely for the Francophile. A Kitchen in France: A Year of Cooking in My Farmhouse is $25 from Amazon.

The concept for new Vancouver restaurant Pidgin is East meets West. It's the latest from young star chef Makoto Ono, who was born to Japanese parents in Winnipeg (his father owned a celebrated sushi restaurant), and after winning the Canadian Culinary Championships in 2007, traveled the world with cooking knives in tow. 

Pidgin is Ono's third restaurant—but his first in Canada. Ono trained in Vancouver before working with Jean-Georges Vongerichten, then opening his own establishments in Beijing and Hong Kong. His East/West concept is prominent in food and drink: Starters include potatoes with spicy cod roe and seaweed butter, and in addition to generous choices for tea and sake, there's both single malt and Japanese whisky.

For the design, Ono teamed with Craig Stanghetta of Ste. Marie, who transformed disparate ingredients into a bright, minimal whole. To add spice to his signature white walls and subway tile, Stanghetta featured the work of Mexican-born Vancouver artist Ricky Alvarez, including a trio of taxidermy quails and a single goose wing jutting from one wall. It all adds up to a subtly edgy combination.

Above: Stanghetta combined two neighboring restaurant spaces into an 1,808-square-foot whole. 

Pidgin's East/West theme extends to its Gastown locale: It sits across from its namesake, Pigeon Park, a gritty locale that connects the east and west sides of the city. The restaurant, which made its debut last winter, was greeted by enthusiastic reviews, but initial protests from locals who perceived it as gentrifying the neighborhood. 

Above: Pidgin's chef Makoto Ono (right) with pastry chef Amanda Cheng.

Above: Three taxidermied California quails perch in alcoves above the chef's table.

Above: Stanghetta used simple panel moulding at counters and commissioned modern black lighting from Ste. Marie offshoot Good Animal Lamps. “I certainly like to evoke a sense of atmosphere," he told The Vancouver Sun of his approach to restaurants. "After that, I like the style to be able to drift in and out of schools of design thought.”

Above: Pidgin serves sake on tap; the curious ceramic handles with gilded claws are the work of local Espiritu Design Studio. 

Above: A goose wing extends from an orange block in a piece by artist Ricky Alvarez.

Above: The Japanese-inspired tables and bench seating are made with joinery. Like the look? See Built to Last: Joinery Kitchens by KitoBito of Japan.

With Thanksgiving—and the whole holiday season—suddenly upon us, it's time to think about stocking up on party essentials.

We work hard to source our food locally, but what about the tools we use to prepare it? Here's our collection of all-American accessories that deserve a place in your kitchen. 

Above: Despite all the advancements in kitchen equipment, the classic American-style wood rolling pin is still the baker's staple. We like hand-turned designs, such as the simple Shaker Rolling Pin (right), from Vermont Rolling Pins; $75 in maple. 

Above: Another classic for bakers, the Jacob Bromwell All-American Flour Sifter offers tried-and-true sifting technology; $84.99. See more Pioneer Kitchenware from Jacob Bromwell—all made by hand in Indiana using old-fashioned metalworking techniques.

Above: If you inherited a whisk from your childhood kitchen, chances are that it came from Oregon's Best Manufacturing. Best Manufacturing's whips, as they call them, come with a lifetime warranty. They're made in an array of sizes and with wooden or stainless steel handles. The Best Manufacturing Professional 10-Inch Wood-Handled Balloon Whisk is $11.95 at Sur la Table. 

Above: Our favorite purveyor of classic cast-iron pans is Lodge (it's the oldest family-run foundry in America), founded in the Appalachian Mountains of Tennessee by Joseph Lodge. Read Object Lessons: Lodge Cast Iron for the full story. Seasoned and ready to use, the Lodge Logic 10-Inch Skillet is $15.92 through Amazon.

Above: Made in Iowa, the Rada Cutlery Stainless Steel Pizza Cutter has an aluminum handle (hand-wash only) and a super sharp and strong blade that cuts through the toughest of crusts (as well as pasta, cookies, and dough). It has a lifetime warranty; $10.95 from Kaufmann Mercantile.

Above: John Boos & Co. has been manufacturing high-quality wood cutting boards, butcher blocks, and countertops in Effingham, Illinois, since 1887. The John Boos 20-by-15-Inch Reversible Maple Cutting Board is a longtime best seller; $70.56 at Amazon. To extend the life of your board, give it a good oiling every three to four weeks with Food-Grade Mineral Oil from Brooklyn Slate Co.; $7.

Above: A great culinary tool borrowed from the wood shop: the made-in-Arkansas Microplane Classic Zester Grater is as ideal for zesting a lemon as it is for grating Parmesan cheese. Mine is in use daily; $12.49 from Amazon.

Above: Invented in the US in 1941 by a German immigrant, the simple Chemex Coffeemaker is made from nonporous borosilicate glass and fastened with a wood collar and tie. It's beloved by purists because it brews coffee without imparting any flavors of its own; $48 for the eight-cup model (the Chemex One-Cup Coffeemaker is $42) at Schoolhouse Electric. 

Above: Jacob Bromwell (makers of the sifter shown above) has been manufacturing kitchenware since this country was a mere 22 states, it's the 34th-oldest owned-and-operated company in US. Pricey but meticulously made, the stainless steel Jacob Bromwell Legendary Colander costs $199.99.

Above: The stainless steel Zim-Ade-O-Matic Two-Purpose Baster, a Thanksgiving essential with its own cleaning brush and injector attachment, is made in Chicago. It's $18.50 on Amazon.

Above: An American ice cream parlor fixture since its creation in the mid-1930s, the ingenious Zeroll Ice Cream Scoop is made in Ohio of corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy, which draws on the natural warmth of the hand to ease the scooping; $19.95 at Williams-Sonoma.

Above: Synonymous with door-to-door sales, the Fuller Brush Company is still around (but no longer knocking). They've released a new collection of vintage-style brushes, including the Fuller Dish Brush with a wooden handle and stiff memory bristles; $14 at Restoration Hardware.

Above: A never-fail classic, the manual EZ Duz-It Can Opener of heavy-gauge chromed steel with carbon steel cutting blades is $9.95 at Williams-Sonoma.

Above: Singled out in the Remodelista 100, the Eena Work Apron by Beckel Canvas Products of Portland, Oregon, is a hardworking basic that hides stains; $38 at Canoe.

Above: An American kitchen-counter icon, the Kitchen-Aid Artisan Series Five-Quart Mixer is made in Greenville, Ohio; $324 from Amazon.

Photographer Julia Spiess of the blog Dinners with Friends is German and, like me—a Northern California Brit—is not fully vested in the whole tradition of Thanksgiving. We make good guests and bring great side dishes, but the idea of cooking a turkey in November just seems wrong (to me, that's strictly a Christmas day affair). Looking for inspiration for a more laid-back approach to the day, we turned to Brit expat Maxine Gilbert, owner with her surfer/chef husband, John Gilbert, of the Parkside Cafe at Stinson Beach, half an hour north of SF (and accessed via a somewhat death-defying, winding panoramic road). The Parkside Cafe sits a stone's throw from the beach and includes a bakery, cafe, and snack bar, which John and Maxine have been running for the past 18 years. The restaurant is open on Thanksgiving, but the couple also manage to stage their own celebration. It's all about family, friends, and good food, just a little more casual than most.

So if you're looking for a change of pace, here are tips for a nontraditional celebration, courtesy of Maxine and John.

Photography by Julia Spiess for Dinners with Friends.

Above: An Italian wood-burning stove anchors the dining room at the Parkside Cafe. It was installed by a couple of builders from nearby Bolinas. In lieu of traditional tiles, Maxine opted for a clean cement finish.

1. Entice the senses. John notes that the cafe, with its wood-burning stove, becomes all about “hearing, seeing, and smelling what’s going on in the hearth.” Even without a wood-burning stove, some sort of fire adds atmosphere to a room.

2. Keep the backdrop simple. Maxine explains, “Everything is either black or white, even the pots are all black. I wanted no artwork or color, just the food and bread to be the art.” The table is made from a slab of sycamore and positioned at the center of the room. The couple sourced the wood from Arborica, in West Marin; Maxine likes the dark streaks that run through it.

Above: Maxine carries appetlizers—Dungeness crab on flatbread with fresh persimmon, celery, and shallot vinaigrette, and a tray of Point Reyes oysters.

3. Work with whatever is available. The couple are lucky to have great pickings in their area: "We get fish from a couple of guys in Bolinas before they head into the city to sell their catch. The greens are from Star Route or Gospel Flat, and we serve wine from Bolinas-based Sean Thackery. 

4. Consider two napkins. Layered napkins provide good contrast on the table, and if you're eating multiple courses, it's a nice luxury to have more than one. The Gilberts' napkins are shown here with Provençal flatware by David Mellor. 

Above: Maxine and John set their table with black ceramics from Heath's Coupe line and inexpensive Duralex tumblers, a longstanding bistro favorite.

5. Use black dinnerware. Food shows really well on dark plates.

6. Pour wine and water into glass tumblers. The Gilberts stick with classic Duralex bistroware from France. In addition to being nearly unbreakable and well-priced, these glasses are not as obtrusive on the table as traditional stemware (and their size keeps quantities sensible). For sources, see Object Lessons: Iconic Cafeware from Duralex.

Above: Levain fresh from the Parkside bakery.

7. Serve bread on a tea towel. John explains. "Linen is good for wrapping bread and keeping it warm and absorbing the heat moisture. Plus, it holds all the crumbs and looks so nice."

Above: Food is set out on the counter beside the oven.

8. Serve food buffet style. It's communal, celebratory, and familial.

9. Clink a glass between courses. Taking a pause to toast and chat about the food creates a sense of occasion.

Above: Chestnuts and one of Louesa Roebuck's signature foraged arrangements.

10. Roast chestnuts. The crackle in the fire adds to the atmosphere. John uses an old recipe that calls for the chestnuts to be scored with an X at the top. He then boils them in salted water for 6 to 10 minutes until there's foam on top. He lets the chestnuts cool down, adds oil, salt, and pepper, and then puts them on the fire using a roaster with side air vents. 

Above: In the oven, a pot of red curry squash puree sits ready to be served. The squash is from Gospel Flat Farm, in Bolinas.

Above L: The accompaniment to the soup: seeded levain Gruèyere toast. Above R: Another staple of the Gilberts' dinners: olives warmed in the oven, served with unsalted butter sprinkled with a pinch of Maldon salt. Maxine concedes, "I know it's not local, but it really is the best salt."

Above: Maxine enlisted Stinson local Louesa Roebuck to create the floral elements. Everything was foraged up the coast in West Marin; as Louesa explains, "The persimmon were the most glorious thing happening now and they provided the bone structure. I mixed autumnal hydrangea with pale, delicate lavender hydrangea, then added some clematis gone to seed that introduced a theatrical, fluffy, sensual note."

In my house, the broom serves a dual-purpose: a standard sweeping assistant and a noise-canceling device (used to bang on the ceiling during our neighbors' wild parties). For the latter purpose, a wood handle is important to get the right resonance, but the real issue for me is: In a small, urban apartment where can I hide said broom? For those of us lacking a proper broom closet, utilitarian goods end up front and center. Often they're in the kitchen or hanging on a wall hook, so they'd better look good. Here, five well-made brooms that you won't be ashamed to display.

Above: From Andrée Jardin, one of our favorite broom-making studios, the Full Shovel + Brush is designed by French bloggers Mr. & Mrs. Clynk. The set is available in Fig, Mustard, Fake Black, or Light Gray and comes with the warning, "Caution! This object can quickly become essential"; €79 ($98.20) from Andrée Jardin.

Above: The Laundress's attractive and easily accessible Horsehair Broom is made in Germany and sells for $60.

Above: From dip-dye specialists Lostine in Pennsylvania (remember their color-block cutting boards?) come these all-purpose household Barn Brooms available in black, "tipped," or natural; $60 each.

Above: A closer look at the trio and its variations. Go to Object Lessons: The Autumnal Broom to learn about the history of the straw broom and source more examples.

Above: Another model from Andrée Jardin, the Broom Design by Mr. & Mrs. Clynk comes in two 1970s-inspired colors, hot orange or teal blue; €41 ($50.96) at Andrée Jardin. The Dustpan and Brush are sold separately for €24 ($29.83) each. 

Above: From Swedish company Iris Hantwerk, which employs visually impaired craftspeople, the Swedish Broom has a birch handle and palmyra fiber brush; £18.50 ($23) at Objects of Use.

After a day spent obsessing about color, texture, and ornament, what would you want to come home to? For fashion designer Michael Kors, the answer is an apartment that's "clean, spare, and simple, but the pieces have presence and quality, which is the same approach I take to designing clothes."

Kors and husband, Lance LePere, collaborated on their 2,200-square-foot New York City penthouse with interior designer Glenn Gissler, a member of the Remodelista Architect/Designer Directory. "Michael is very specific; he likes things to be understated and very edited, using a limited number of materials and colors," says Gissler.

Gissler describes the look as "classic modern seen through a 21st-century filter," by which he means iconic furniture by Florence Knoll, Mies van der Rohe, and George Nelson set in a chic, custom-tailored shell. Anyone who follows Kors's designs knows that updated American sportswear is his bread and butter, but he's equally inclined to take on glamour and whimsy. To that end, the apartment's decor gives a nod to the seventies, when, according to Kors, "New York was really fun!”

Gissler and Kors's friendship goes back nearly that far: "Michael used to get his hair cut by my first wife in our loft in Soho," says Gissler. That's when Kors took note of Gissler's talent: "Little has changed from our conversations 27 years ago," says Gissler. "This is a full reflection of Michael’s dream apartment."

Above: Throughout the apartment, Gissler zeroed in on a palette of black and white, set off by wood and metal accents. "I often hear about incredibly long days of back-to-back design meetings," says Gissler. "At home, Michael and Lance are seeking visual calm."

Above: Lance, a creative director at Michael Kors (the two met at the office), already owned the Florence Knoll sofa and side tables, as well as several stone-based lamps, and Gissler helped fill in the blanks. In the living area, Kors's favorite reading material lines the bookcases: "I love books on photography and design, and I love biographies, whether historical or of the trashy celebrity variety."

Above: A view of the airy living and dining areas. Kors, who is known for going sockless, prefers rug-free living in the main rooms.

The penthouse has two bathrooms, but no office. Says Gissler, "Michael and Lance have a team of people who provide backup for anything and everything to help manage their overscheduled lives."

Above: A Barcelona chair and stool by Mies van der Rohe. 

Asked about his favorite part of the design, Gissler responded: "The most important piece of the equation for me is that Michael has someone to share his life with; this apartment was a joint effort and designed with and for both of them. They make a great couple, and that is the thing I like most."

Above: The sectional sofa and large black coffee table are Gissler designs inspired by the Kors aesthetic: "tailored, classic, understated, and chic."

Above: A Barcelona daybed by Mies van der Rohe. Of Kors's approach to room design and fashion, Gissler said: "Edit, edit, edit. Only the essential elements remain."

Above: The kitchen's custom cabinets are made of white Corian, with counters and backsplash of honed absolute black granite. "Both materials are simple, monolithic, and easy to maintain," says Gissler. 

Above: A George Nelson pendant hovers over a custom table. Though the dining room is perfect for parties, Kors and LePere rarely entertain. "They both work incredibly hard and travel so much that their home is a quiet escape," says Gissler.

Above: In the serene bedroom, Pyrex industrial glass lamps designed in 1971 by John Saladino stand on custom bedside cabinets. White canvas curtain panels cover the windows and a Florence Knoll bench sits at end of bed.

Above: A pair of fur throw pillows on the bedroom lounge chairs is reminiscent of Kors's designs. Says Gissler, "It seems to me that Michael's fundamental design credo hasn't really changed in the nearly three decades that I have known him. He is very consistent."

Above: The master bath is clad in Calacatta Vision Marble from Stone Source, in New York, and has stainless steel Timpani Vessel sinks by Kohler. "Michael specifically requested an all-white bath," says Gissler. "He spends so much time in hotels around the world, he wanted to create his version of the ultimate luxury bath—simplicity, space, and piles of thick white towels."
