A "Belgian" rustic cottage with modern elegance

I'm not sure what "Belgian Rustic" means, but whatever it is I like it!
The dark wood timbers mixed with lighter neutrals is a palette I've always liked, and the nod to nature and a rustic "tied-to-the-earth" aesthetic is relaxing and homey.







Great sculpture!




Love this wooden armoire.

Check out my friend Van's house in World of Interiors

Van's home was featured in the November 2004 issue of World of Interiors! She was kind enough to share it with me and let me post it on Decorology. Van is one cool lady who has lived and worked all over the world and is known as the "Zing Girl," and is a branding and design guru. As you can tell from these photos - her husband's (a sculptor) studio is also their home. Pretty cool!


oh Brooklyn - how I miss you so!




Loving this little nook and the salon style wall.
