When we moved into our rental cottage, there was a row of cabinets with heavy, dark, wooden doors, and a short, narrow counter attached underneath. I removed the cabinet doors to open up the small kitchen (as per #marthastewart ), and my landlord removed the counter at my request. I replaced it with a free-standing #butcherblock counter that I got for $15 from a yard sale, two old stools salvaged from my parents basement, and a short press-board bookshelf on wheels that I painted white and topped with a scrap of butcher block from my parents house. We now have storage in metal bins and baskets in the bookshelf/rolling island, and extra counter space for cooling racks or volunteer choppers, seating for hanging out in the kitchen ( #inevitable ), and plenty of space to functionally display our dishes. #DIY #yardsale #secondhand #upcycle #cubbies #openshelving #kitchenideas #tinyhouse #storagesolutions #counterspace #prettykitchen #vintagekitchen
The kitchen is sadly devoid of counterspace and bottom cabinets. To compensate, I ordered a kitchen island. Someday I plan to redo the kitchen cabinet doors in glossy white, and paint the body of this island (leaving the top as is) the same color.
Just call me Ainsley...
This is what I call a "gourmet express" lunch. I used the remaining pizza dough from yesterday and rolled it very thinly. (It's an herbed crust: seasonings, garlic, oregano) I topped it with hvitost, mozzarella, parmasean, torn serano ham slices, black olives, and pesto. It should be noted that this time I used a jar of leftover tomato sauce and "death" pesto from a jar because it was much more convenient.
With probably a current working counterspace of 30cm x 30cm I rolled this out carefully, topped it with ready items (I could not justify making my own pesto and tomato sauce for such a tiny pizza), and baked it at 225C for maximum crisping. (This is especially key when using a thin crust.)

The "island" on the galley side provides support for the cook on port tack and more counter space. Inside there is a fold-out seat that allows two more people to sit at the dining table and room for a pop-up TV.

Inside the Serpentine Pavilion
The 20th Serpentine Pavilion is designed by Johannesburg-based practice Counterspace, directed by Sumayya Vally. A TIME100 Next List honouree, Vally is the youngest architect to be commissioned for this internationally renowned architecture programme.
The Pavilion’s design is based on past and present places of meeting, organising and belonging across several London neighbourhoods significant to diasporic and cross-cultural communities, including Brixton, Hoxton, Tower Hamlets, Edgware Road, Barking and Dagenham and Peckham, among others. Responding to the historical erasure and scarcity of informal community spaces across the city, the Pavilion references and pays homage to existing and erased places that have held communities over time and continue to do so today. Among them are: some of the first mosques built in the city, such as Fazl Mosque and East London Mosque, cooperative bookshops including Centerprise, Hackney; entertainment and cultural sites including The Four Aces Club on Dalston Lane, The Mangrove restaurant and the Notting Hill Carnival. The forms in the Pavilion are a result of abstracting, superimposing and splicing elements from architectures that vary in scales of intimacy, translating the shapes of London into the Pavilion structure in Kensington Gardens. Where these forms meet, they create a new place for gathering in the Pavilion.
The Pavilion is built of reclaimed steel, cork and timber covered with micro-cement. The varying textures, hues of pink and brown are drawn directly from the architecture of London and reference changes in quality of light.
For the first time in the history of this commission, four Fragments of the Pavilion are placed in partner organisations whose work has inspired the design of the Pavilion: one of the first Black publishers and booksellers in the UK New Beacon Books in Finsbury Park, a multi-purpose venue and community centre The Tabernacle in Notting Hill, arts centre the Albany in Deptford and the new Becontree Forever Arts and Culture Hub at Valence Library in Barking and Dagenham, which was established this year to commemorate the centenary of the UK’s largest council housing estate. These Fragments support the everyday operations of these organisations while enabling and honouring gatherings of local communities that they have supported for years. A gesture of decentralising architecture to include a multitude of voices, the Fragments extend out into the city the principals on which the Pavilion was designed.

Faded sign for Nestle Success as shot through the Comcast parking lot fence.
Given it's western-facing direction and the fact that it's considerably less dilapidated than the surrounding corrugated metal I'm wondering if this is "fake old". However, I couldn't find a lot on this specific ad/campaign so I'm unsure at this point.
You'll look better and love it!

Where these forms meet, they create a new place for gathering in the Pavilion.
The Pavilion is built of reclaimed steel, cork and timber covered with micro-cement. The varying textures, hues of pink and brown are drawn directly from the architecture of London and reference changes in quality of light.
For the first time in the history of this commission, four Fragments of the Pavilion are placed in partner organisations whose work has inspired the design of the Pavilion: one of the first Black publishers and booksellers in the UK New Beacon Books in Finsbury Park, a multi-purpose venue and community centre The Tabernacle in Notting Hill, arts centre the Albany in Deptford and the new Becontree Forever Arts and Culture Hub at Valence Library in Barking and Dagenham, which was established this year to commemorate the centenary of the UK’s largest council housing estate. These Fragments support the everyday operations of these organisations while enabling and honouring gatherings of local communities that they have supported for years. A gesture of decentralising architecture to include a multitude of voices, the Fragments extend out into the city the principals on which the Pavilion was designed.

Inside the Serpentine Pavilion
The 20th Serpentine Pavilion is designed by Johannesburg-based practice Counterspace, directed by Sumayya Vally. A TIME100 Next List honouree, Vally is the youngest architect to be commissioned for this internationally renowned architecture programme.
The Pavilion’s design is based on past and present places of meeting, organising and belonging across several London neighbourhoods significant to diasporic and cross-cultural communities, including Brixton, Hoxton, Tower Hamlets, Edgware Road, Barking and Dagenham and Peckham, among others. Responding to the historical erasure and scarcity of informal community spaces across the city, the Pavilion references and pays homage to existing and erased places that have held communities over time and continue to do so today. Among them are: some of the first mosques built in the city, such as Fazl Mosque and East London Mosque, cooperative bookshops including Centerprise, Hackney; entertainment and cultural sites including The Four Aces Club on Dalston Lane, The Mangrove restaurant and the Notting Hill Carnival. The forms in the Pavilion are a result of abstracting, superimposing and splicing elements from architectures that vary in scales of intimacy, translating the shapes of London into the Pavilion structure in Kensington Gardens. Where these forms meet, they create a new place for gathering in the Pavilion.

As the United States faces rising geopolitical threats in outer space—and countries like China and Russia advance their own so-called “counterspace” programs—the US is considering adding a sixth military branch, its first since the Air Force in 1947. The Washington Ideas Roundtable Series featured Capitol Hill’s two most vocal leaders on space issues, discussing the modern threat environment and the Pentagon’s approach to the next frontier.
