How to Achieve that Rare Combination of Rustic and Refined
We started with a rustic backdrop—a home in Hamilton NY. We stripped it down to its “bones”, eliminated non-essential details and layered in a variety of furniture, art and objects from around the globe to give it personality and warmth. Historic pieces sit next to sleek, modern items; well-worn wood adds texture and color. The result is sophisticated, warm, and inviting.
At 11HamiltonHome we offer an array of specialty items which, when artfully place, can add variety and individuality to your home.
Modern and sleek accessories make the classic farmhouse design aesthetic easy to elevate. Metallic silver accents and cool blue-tinted glassware pair perfectly with traditional farmhouse decor. Hand-painted classic ceramic pieces, carved gold frames paired with contemporary art, and stoneware flower vases tie together any look to combine rustic ruggedness with a sophisticated modern appeal.
Warm Details
Wooden artwork, kitchenware, sculptures, and furniture can warm up your room instilling a sense of coziness while remaining timeless and elegant. Each and every piece of natural wood has its own distinct grain, pattern, hue, and, ultimately, its own character. Once again, rustic meets refined as inviting materials and streamlined shapes combine.
Cool Accents
Jewel-toned colors pair perfectly with all tones and textures of wood, offering an element of serenity and calmness. Happy and bright turquoise juxtaposed against the dark and rustic patina of a dresser’s exterior is an example of how high-contrast pairings can produce an extremely sophisticated and multidimensional look. To make a smaller, yet just as impactful style statement, look for colorful accessories like glassware, pottery, and ceramics to brighten up dark corners.
Design in your home is about self-expression and personal style. Mixing different color palettes, materials, and styles can yield unexpected results that lead to wonder and a sense of individualism.
