Our sister sites celebrated Independence Day with a week of design, American style. Here’s what caught our eye.
Above: Design powerhouse Roman & Williams nailed New England nautical-chic with its work on Greydon House, a newish (it opened last summer) hotel in Nantucket. This vintage wooden coat rack is a perfect emblem of the style—full of character, history, and patina. See Greydon House: A Seafarer’s Inn (with Maritime Finds) on Old Nantucket.

Above: Julie’s latest obsession is a stainless steel portable water filter made by a Colorado-based company and sold by a general store operating out of Amish country in Ohio. See Object of Desire: Good-Looking Berkey Water Filters. Above: OK, admittedly, La Minervetta isn’t in the US. The eclectic hotel is in Sorrento, Italy, but its red-white-and-blue interiors feel distinctly American. Here at The Organized Home, we zeroed in on (after first being mesmerized by the awesomely graphic tiles) the double-layer towel rack. It’s a great look and, in tight quarters, a smart space-saving strategy. See Stars and Stripes, Italian Style: La Minervetta in Italy.
