Miles Redd is one designer who’s style and taste in decor never disappoints. This dreamy country home situated in sunny California makes for the perfect family nesting spot.

A big part of what makes a home so great is not only in the interior decor, but also in the exterior. Focusing on outdoor living is a big part of making the most of your home. Miles likes to focus on simplicity outdoors, so the sleek lounge chairs and country-style landscaping was a must for this traditionally styled home.

The solarium or sunroom is the perfect spot for kicking back and reading a good book, all while enjoying an impeccable view of the nature outdoors.

In the library, white oak panel walls and intricate detailing all throughout the accessories and furniture really make this tiny but dramatic space stand out! My favorite part of this whole room is the opulent wood burning stove which makes it the perfect spot to cozy up on a chilly day.

The dining room is a showstopper and focal point of the house with floor length windows, an amazing view, and a charming interior. The curtains are silk taffeta, the chandelier is antique Florian Papp and the chair seats are reupholstered in Chelsea Editions fabric. Blue and white chinoiserie vases add an oriental touch and an exotic-ness to the room’s overall decor.

Who says you can’t do stripes from top to bottom? This little girls’ room proves you can make a bold statement using a little imagination and simple color palette of just three colors. The paint used for the stripes is from Benjamin Moore and the fabric covering the chairs, ottoman and bench is from Alan Campbell.

Snapdragon Home Décor was founded by Suzanne Lillie, a small town gal from Kingston, Massachusetts with a lot of style! Suzanne used to be a religious mail order shopper but transitioned early on to online shopping and loves it! Her passion for décor, design, and online shopping all led to start her own online home décor boutique.

Suzanne’s overall style is super comfy, and homey which translates to a lot of the products she features in her shop. This lovely living room featured in Architectural Digest really shows off the kind of style Snapdragon portrays. Just an overall relaxed, timeless look that’s perfect for a family environment.

Here’s a great way to incorporate a homey, cozy feel into your home this spring – lots of plants, warm colors, and a natural color scheme of beige, taupe, green, and violet!

Suzanne has a lot of experience in making a new house, home! She’s moved at least ten times since leaving her parent’s home and each time managed to turn an empty room into a cozy, family home. She loves filling her home with décor accents, and accessories that create and cherish family memories.

This living room has a coastal, beach-y vibe that I’m obsessed with! Snapdragon Home Decor has a lot of products that perfectly mimic this style!

Remember that the key to a comfortable home is by decorating with things you LOVE and that have meaning to you. Unique finds like this indigo paisley bowl from Snapdragon, and this metal cookbook holder are perfect to give your kitchen a family atmosphere.

When we think of rustic design and home décor, we usually picture a small log cabin, tucked away deep in the forest or perched on a mountain hill. However, your roof doesn’t need to be covered with moss and your windows don’t need to be looking out on a glacial lake to consider adopting the trendy rustic style in your home.

Even if you have a modern style home you can mix in rustic and primitive décor with your smooth walls or polished wood and STILL manage to recreate the romantic atmosphere of a mountain retreat or a barn. These clever combinations of rustic style décor and luxury elements will give your home a whole new vibe for 2015:

The Artisan Fireplace

Nothing screams rustic or luxury louder than a fireplace, which we traditionally associate with both. To improve on the wood-fed conventional rustic fireplace, consider a gas-fueled artisan alternative that is still designed with rustic elements, such as rocks and rough wood.

The River-Stone Bathtub

Rather than going for traditional tile or smooth surface, think about dressing your bathtub in rough river stone or granite pieces to complement a wooden wall, ceiling or vanity top. This will give your bathroom a whole new rustic look that’s tied in with nature and the wilderness.

The Alternative Kitchen Countertop!

There is a lot you can do to play with rustic décor in your kitchen, such as replacing the sink with a copper one as well as installing a large stone slab in place of a regular counter top. For a full luxury rustic finish, add a weathered metal faucet, complete with a stone backsplash.

The Rustic Canopy Bed

Bring the warm and cozy feeling of a wooden cabin bedroom with a natural wood canopy bed. The canopy bed has long been a staple of luxury décor, but you can surely maintain its status by picking high-quality ornamental wood in artistic natural shapes for its crown. This designer stuck to a more sleek shape to seamlessly blend in with the dark, rustic wall panels.

The Natural Color Textures

Rich, soft wools, authentic rugs and organic textured draperies in warm earthy tones will momentarily increase the level of comfort and coziness. A lacquered tree trunk with a glass top makes a wonderful coffee table and perfectly mixes in rustic with luxury. Also consider natural shapes, materials and colors when picking out the art for the living space as well.

The Effective Chandelier

Just like with the canopy bed, we are accustomed to thinking about luxury décor when we picture chandeliers. As long as you stick to nature’s elements, you will have an element of extravagance that perfectly fits your rustic design concept. What’s super popular is antlers turned into chandeliers or even a big wagon wheel wrapped with twinkle lights makes the perfect lighting fixture.

With these key rustic elements you can easily bring in a dash of rural style to your home without sacrificing luxury and comfort. If you already have conceptual interior design at home that leans towards modern luxury, but you would like to tie in a few rustic details, you can always rely on rough wood, organic shapes, a rich earthy palette and distressed metals to achieve the effect.
