Country Cottage

Project:

This country cottage design was all about giving an existing home an aesthetic facelift to bring it out of the ‘80s. Rather than modernizing the home, we added-in 1940’s charm and character to give it greater depth and a historic cottage feel.

Inspiration:

Bed & Breakfast inns and the simplicity of country living.

The Client:

Empty-nesters who love a clean and simple feel. They love it when their kids, and even more so their grandbabies come to visit.

What we love:

  • The antique milk-paint dresser in the master bedroom
  • The old fashioned schoolhouse lights above the kitchen island
  • The polished nickel bridge faucet and Venatino marble countertop
  • A wreckless use of white & restraint…not Summer’s typical aesthetic
  • The soft-pine floorboards which age with every step
  • The fresh-cut flowers from the homeowners shade garden that she brings-in to add color to the space

What we did:

  • Kitchen remodel, design and sourcing
  • Master suite design and remodel
  • Paint, trim, and furniture selections for guest bedrooms, family room and porch
  • Architectural trim detailing throughout the home
