I nspired by his Orange Hill Farm in Ojai, California, Mark Sikes brings his all-American design sensibility to a sunny new collaboration with Pottery Barn. The collection includes table linens, dinnerware, wallpaper, lamp shades, decorative accessories, and bedding centered on three distinctive designs — Citrus, Lilac, and Blue & White — and features hand-painted ceramics, embroidered and crochet trims, and layered patterns. Citrus draws from the orange groves surrounding Ojai, with hand-painted fruit motifs and cobalt accents on table linens and dinnerware. Lilac's delicate floral wallpaper and bedding are paired with classic ticking stripes. And Blue & White — arguably the most quintessentially "Mark" — reimagines his signature palette in geometrics and stripes for table linens, lamp shades, wallpaper, and decorative accessories. Sikes, one of the most recognized names in interior design, is a regular on the Architectural Digest AD100 and Elle Decor A-List. His projects span coast to coast and have included the White House and Blair House, and, surely, we'll visit Orange Hill Farm in an upcoming book. Mark D. Sikes for Pottery Barn, at potterybarn.com.
