Breezy Coastal-Inspired Hearth Room Sustainable, natural, wholly engaging, and a showcase for their cultural pieces and art was the concept for this home. The couple wanted to use sustainable and environmentally friendly products throughout their home as much as possible. Being from both California and Florida, they wanted a coastal influence that didn’t look contrived or over-stylized in a Midwestern home. Also, they desired a serene, peaceful space where all senses were engaged. Incorporating the Feng Shui elements of wood, fire, earth, metal and water in color, texture and product choice was used in this design. A problem area with the original room was a large, blocky oak fireplace. The top half was removed and the hearth was painted white, opening up the space considerably. The back wall was painted a serene blue as an accent. An overall neutral palette of taupe, blues and grey balanced the wood tones found in the flooring and teak accents the couple acquired on their travels. We recovered their existing love seat with taupe diamond-stripe cotton in a slipcover style, adding to the casual atmosphere of a beach house. Organic cotton, hand-blocked pillows with red cherry blossoms provide a pop of color to the seating. A swivel rocker gives flexibility to multiple focal points and conversation. The 100% hemp rug has a turquoise oversized damask print and is a plush anchor to the hearth setting. A long grey-washed rattan bench serves as a cocktail table and woven Roman shades provide needed contrast to the back wall. A distressed, reclaimed bench sits below bold art as a bright accent area to an overall neutral space. The centerpiece of the room is a large cerulean blue buffet with fretwork & glass doors. A large Buddha head serves as a meditative focal point with Asian-inspired art and lighting. Julie Austin Photography

Cozy meets classic in the perfect corner to curl up and read. A richly textured pillow nestles along the track arm of a linden green love seat near the soft glow of a table lamp. Inspired by the natural twists in driftwood, the silver base of the lamp is complemented by organic free form shapes in the candle lantern. The knotted hemp rope along the side of the table adds some nautical interest. photo credit: Proclaim Interactive

The dining room best showcases the use of organic and handcrafted elements. Sliding doors open to a cascading rock water feature, while a large interior window offers views of the gallery and a distinctive woodblock buffet. The walls are covered in Philip Jeffries ” Studs and Stripes Bronze on Elephant Hemp” and the ceiling sparkles in “ Granite Stone.” Topping off the custom colored Moroccan rug and the muscular table from Woodland Furniture is a dazzling black walnut mobile-style chandelier created in collaboration with Matt Downer Designs. A polished Precambrian quartz stone—retrieved from an abandoned mine—suspends from a hand forged iron hook, acting as a counterweight to raise and lower the fixture.
