How to walk in your house and escape the pressure of life



What ever happened to the country/cottage look? Well, it grew up in a manner of speaking. The country style has become the lodge look. A getaway, a retreat. Something slightly primitive but infinitely welcoming. Textures, materials and styles that are simple yet strong and rugged.


Cottage? Hmm, maybe, but picture this cottage in Nantucket or Malibu!  White washed by the sea spray. Crisp soft cottons and smooth time worn pieces that speak to a refined sense of style, but with all stuffiness removed.

 
We need this in our lives. We are so scheduled, so busy. Not only adults but even our kids. The ability to walk into our home and instantly get the sensation of escaping that pressure we live with each day. Our safe place, where we can unwind and just be ourselves.

Let's talk about it,
