| Interior Design Inspiration: Modern Swedish farmhouse |
This 1905 Dutch Colonial Revival home in DC's
Cleveland Park neighborhood was transformed into
a Swedish farmhouse style beauty by architect
Ann Decker and designer Nestor Santa-Cruz.
The designer describes the mix as
European sophistication with American casual.
What gives it a Scandinavian airy vibe?
Gallery white walls
(Benjamin Moore White Dove)
Abundant natural light
White kitchen cabinets
Walnut kitchen island
Open shelving
Re-editions of Danish modern furniture
Swedish antiques
Speaking of Swedish antiques,
a great source for them is one of
Hello Lovely's very own kind sponsors,
Swede Collection, a shop carrying
incredible pieces such as this early
18th century Rococco cabinet.
And this 1780 country table with original paint!
But I think my favorite piece is this 1790
Gustavian chest...isn't it divine?
Okay, we're thoroughly primed to
tour this gorgeous renovated Nordic gem, oui?

ReplyDeleteLove the light floors throughout the house, even in the kitchen. They look like bleached Oak.
