In a historic farmhouse, textures, fabrics and soft seating all create a sense of deep comfort, inviting long talks, family gatherings and afternoons of reading. The furniture and accessories span years and continents, sharing a sense of whimsy and ease. Walls are dressed in ebullient floral wallpapers, bringing nature indoors even on winter days. New and vintage fabrics are layered to reinforce the power of history. Throughout, the interiors speak to the passage of time and the gift of being together with family and friends.
Sixpenny Neva
The coziness of the Sixpenny Neva L-shape sectional cannot be beat. It invites you into its soft embrace and the next thing you know, hours have gone by napping, reading, daydreaming.
Cole & Son Strawberry Tree
We love this dense and vibrant Cole & Son wallpaper pattern that wraps the low-ceilinged snug. Its twining foliage and berries in surprisingly accommodating shades of khaki, green and pink, make the walls disappear.
Milton Simple Ballet
We love Milton’s selection of prints and weaves. The fabric collections are inspired by artists and designed with a painterly love of color, pattern, and texture. They glow in a room.
Benjamin Moore Dove Wing
The Benjamin Moore Off White Collection is full of gems: paint colors that lend just the right amounts of tone and softness. Often hard to describe. Is it greige? Cream? Pink? No matter, we have never failed to find a perfect color for a space from the OC series.
