Yesterday we featured the Lake Huron cabin of Juli and John Baker, owners of Toronto housewares shop Mjölk. The kitchen, designed with architects Studio Junction, is a harmonious blend of pine, soapstone, brass, and Scandi kitchen accessories. Here, Juli and John have kindly shared their sources?from the floor finish to the vintage tea kettle.
The Kitchen

Above: Studio Junction designed the cabinets and countertops with Carolina Pine finished in a lye wash and beeswax coating.

Above: Like Juli and John’s Toronto kitchen, their key kitchen tools hang from a long rail under the open shelving.

Above: Poul Henningsen pendants hang above a dining set by Ilse Crawford.

Above: A wall-mounted dish rack holds just-washed dishes to drip dry above the soapstone sink. Materials

Above: John and Juli painted the walls and floors in Benjamin Moore Cloud White (eggshell on the walls, glossy on the floors); $69.99 for a gallon of Aura Interior Paint.

Above: John and Juli worked with The Metal Peddler to design a custom brass rail and set of hooks. An alternate option is Oji Masanori’s Large Brass Towel Hanger (shown, $95 at Nalata Nalata) mounted on the underside of a shelf.

Above: Coordinating Brass S-Shaped Hooks from Futagami are $24 each, also at Nalata Nalata.

Above: A custom shelf by Peter Henderson Furniture features slots for storing plates. Go to Peter Henderson for more information. See more in our post 10 Easy Pieces: Wall-Mounted Plate Racks.
