This reading corner is full of subdued color and layer upon layer of texture. This is simple. This is anything but boring.

Style Secret: Gentle WeatheringIn a style that's intended to reflect longevity and tradition, spanking-new furnishings and accents stick out. Instead, French country calls for a little rust and dust. Painted pieces should feel distressed, as if they've withstood years of wear and use. Bypass shiny metals in favor of wrought iron, burnished bronze or pewter, preferably with a few dings and scuffs. You can even get away with a slightly frayed coverlet or a threadbare spot on a pillow.New-world chic: This inviting seating vignette feels as though there's a story behind every piece in it — it's like the most stylish collection of hand-me-downs possible. Even the new items whisper of age. The faded colors of the fabrics feel perfectly in step with the patina of the woods.

Love the fabrics

Just like the furnishings, French country fabrics create an artful, engaging potpourri. Toile is the quintessential print for this style, but toss in a few notes of gingham, stripes, florals and solids for a pleasing pastiche. Textural fabrics, such as linen, tapestry and matelassé, lend the tactile interest that the look demands. Stay away from formal textiles such as damask, which can feel too prim. New-world chic: Two different toiles combine with oversize gingham checks in this airy bedroom, unified by the lavender palette (a nice nod to the lavender that blooms across French fields). The soft, swooping canopy adds just the right touch of drama and elegance.
