Cottage Chic Living Room & Entry
The homeowner wanted to convert a modern home into a rustic farmhouse. The large, stark beams were wrapped with distressed wood and the ceiling was clad in wood planks. Large faux stone was added to the fireplace and a hand-hewn wood beam was used as the mantle. Bright, fresh colors of orange and teal offset the ivory and natural wood furnishings. The tall windows had an odd shape, but custom plaid drapery panels give height and a country flair. The entry was converted into a reading and homework nook with a modern rocker and bold relaxed Roman Shades. Odd niches above a powder bath received faux iron scrollwork and were backlit with LED lighting.
