Bedrooms With Julie Carlson
Guest bedroom decor simplified: Aquarelle-printed summer sheets (and matching art) evocative of the sea and the land, from Crisp Sheets, a new Amsterdam bedding company. "We started with a question," the owners say: "Why should we pay so much attention to our interiors and give the bedroom short shrift? We spend a quarter of our lives in bed, so we wanted to create a safe haven, a little comfort zone."
The sheets are woven with a special technique that insures that they stay crisp, "as if you just made your bed," according to the company.
The Sea
Above: The 100 percent cotton Weekend Lover line is "inspired by the five oceans and their beautiful array of blues." Prices range from €109 to €119 ($120 to $131). Only one side is printed, so you can flip to an all-white scheme if desired.
Above: The Ocean Poster is printed on uncoated Munken Lynx paper, measures 11.7 by 16.7 inches, and is €19.95 ($22.04).
The Land
Above: The World Is Yours bedding (the name is inspired by a line from the movie Scarface) has a hand-painted watercolor design that's digitally edited; pricing ranges from €109 to €119 ($120 to $131).
Above: The World Is Yours poster is printed on uncoated Munken Lynx paper, measures 11.7 by 16.7 inches, and is €19.95 ($22.04).

Bedrooms With Alexa Hotz
A while back we featured the Satyagraha House, a guesthouse on the property of what was Mohandas "Mahatma" Gandhi's house in Johannesburg, South Africa, a century ago. Since many of us at Remodelista are city or near-city dwellers with countless distractions and noise pollution, we were especially drawn to the calm, light-filled bedrooms.
To re-create the look, we sourced the essentials of the monastic Satyagraha bedroom. See the rest of the property in our post Serenity Now: A Guesthouse that Channels the Spirit of Gandhi.

The 222 model is available directly from Lampe Gras. The smaller Lampe Gras Model 304 Sconce Lamp is $360 at Design Within Reach.
Above: The Lampe Gras Model 205 Task Lamp has a cast steel frame that's made without screws or welded joints and has a 40W candelabra base; $475 from Design Within Reach.
