Rustic Modern Vintage Chic Home Tour

I stumbled on this this rustic, modern, vintage chic
1910 New York apartment via Remodelista,
and its imaginative loveliness hails from
Anthony D'Argenzio of the creative agency
Zio & Sons!

One of the details which drew me in
were the warm rustic wood doors
paired with snowy white walls
which is what we did here at
the fixer upper with knotty alder.

Here are some of the secret ingredients within
this apartment home which oozes with character
and sings with rustic modern slow living wonder:

Beadboard Ceilings
White Walls (Benjamin Moore Simply White)
Painted Trim (Benjamin Moore Harwood Putty CW-5)
Reclaimed barn wood shelving
Natural linen upholstery
Locally Sourced Furnishings
Handmade & Handcrafted Objects
Custom Blue-Gray Venetian Plaster
(Master of Plaster)
White Terracotta Glazed Tile Backsplash
(Cle Tiles)
Country Farm Sink (Zaborksi's)
Vintage White Range
Vintage Sink Consoles
Vintage Brass Bed
Vintage Pendant Lights
Vintage Clawfoot Tub
(painted pink!)

One of my favorite parts of deconstructing
a creatively designed apartment is that
there are always lessons in small space
decorating to be learned, and this
project is no exception.

D'Argenzio commissioned a small
rustic wood sectional with upholstered
cushions for this little reading nook,
and well, I think it's a stroke of genius.

 The white glazed terracotta tiles...I meaaaaaaan.
If you are neutralfreaky like moi,
I know you are just dying and maybe
dreaming about traveling to Morocco.

And isn't the tender blue hue of the plaster
some kind of wonderful too?

Who says you can't have a vanity area
in a tiny bedroom?
Reclaimed barn wood to the rescue.

 The touches of dusty muted rose make me smile.

The next time you see a vintage
wood medicine cabinet at the
fleamarket, maybe think:
"oooooooh...custom vanity base."
