Cooking in the country

Country cooking comes to life in this kitchen, with its casual, relaxed environment. A light green wall paint brings a natural feel to the kitchen, complementing the white fixtures.

Country Cottage Style

Friendly, feminine, and inviting, the Country Cottage style keeps it casual, mixing up family heirlooms, cast-offs, vintage furniture, and mismatched dishes, blankets, shawls, and throws for a comfortable, "lived-in" look.

Country Cottage Paint Palettes

Paint palettes of white, green and lavender and cream inform this cozy style inspired by the English countryside. Furniture and wooden floors are painted with colour wash or deliberately distressed with a faux finish.
