Dining Room

RUSTIC MODERN DINING ROOM!

October 17, 2012

What a great dining room!  I like all of the varying textures, the natural neutral color palette, the liberal use of all things wood and all the while maintaining an air of sleek modern.  I call this style rustic modern.  All of those elements that technically would be used in rustic style decor but that have been fashioned in a clean line modern way.  Understand what I mean?

Wood paneled walls and wood slatted ceilings work in this space (painted wood slats on walls always look good in my view) to create a cozy feel to the space.  The clean lines and subtle curves Danish furniture add a vintage mid century modern vibe to this eating area as well.  Light colored wood floors blend in with the walls.  I love the lighting too…large glass and wire grid pendant lights too.

I like.  Take a look.

I absolutely love the French doors with the trellis pattern detail. (above)

What do you think of this dining room?  Would you call it rustic modern or something else?  What do you like?  What don’t you like?  Please advise in the comments below!

Happy Wednesday!

P.S.  Had a mini Presidential debate watching “thing” at my house last night.  Served some nice cold white wine (it is so hot here in Los Angeles), put out a nice fruit and cheese plate, and ordered in pizza and salad from one of my favorite restaurants…Cheebo. Had a great time watching the debate and then laughing about the news commentary on CNN after!

P.P.S. Later this week, I’m going to a very small private cocktail event here in Los Angeles where I get to meet a big huge name in the fashion industry – from here on out “The Icon”.  I was invited so I could be introduced to “The Icon”.  The cocktail party is oh so small.  “The Icon” is a huge commercial success in fashion and I’ve read about how he got started as inspiration when I was starting my home furnishings collection.  “The Icon’s” team wants to introduce me to him because of the COCOCOZY textiles collection.  I’m not supposed to talk about any of the specifics I don’t think…so I’ll keep very quiet now as to who “he” is.  Don’t know what to wear though.  Yikes! There will be a handful of famous people there too.  Oy va voy. I have a cute leather top (but might be too hot)…I also have an adorable navy and black sparkling mini skirt  (but it looks better with opaque black tights and it is too hot for that)…I think the weather is going to thwart my stylish wardrobe plans.  Please have the weather drop to 60 degrees overnight so that I can wear my cute fall outfits!  Please.

P.P.P.S.  Happy Wednesday again!

    LOVE this look! Rustic elegance is definitely my favorite mix, and I feel that this rustic dining room has lots of elegant touches, like the fur covers on a few of the chairs.

    Overall, I love this room. I’m not crazy about the fur covers because I love the sleek, mid-century modern chairs design they are on. I’d be happier seeing the fur as pillows placed here and there within this room.

    What an incredible dining room. The mixing and matching of all those textured chairs with the long table is just fabulous. Makes me want to throw out all my chairs and start from scratch!!

    … perhaps “Retroistic”…or “Urbangrunge”… Interesting space, but the fur lost me.

    LOVE to know who “The ICON” is and how the meeting went. 🙂

    All the best

    Oh how funny…
    I’ve enjoyed reading your blog for a while. I’m an interior designer in Chico, CA and have gotten some good ideas from you. But I used to live in LA and my good friend is the manager/part owner of Cheebo. Reading that you ordered from there brought back memories. Thanks! Sage ([email protected])

Ever wondered what it feels like to have the Eiffe Ever wondered what it feels like to have the Eiffel Tower as your view? These 7 Paris spaces answer that — some hotel suites, some private residences, and each one framing it completely differently. 🫶
A gilded suite where it peers through silk drapes. A terrace set for breakfast with the Tower straight ahead. Contemporary apartments where open French doors bring it almost into the room. Classic Haussmannian grandeur on one end, sculptural modern interiors on the other; same iconic backdrop, seven entirely different ways to live with it.
→ Save this for your next Paris trip or renovation inspo.

This Haussmannian apartment sits directly facing N This Haussmannian apartment sits directly facing Notre-Dame on the Left Bank, and @double_g_interior_design designed the interior to match that setting without competing with it. ✨
The approach was deliberate restraint: restored cornices kept intact, stained oak floors, limestone tones, a mix of vintage furniture and contemporary silhouettes. Every choice earning its place. The light does the rest. Bouncing off mirrors, moving through the neutral walls across the day. 🔅
→ Save this if you’re working with a Haussmannian space and want to let the architecture lead.

This six-floor Paris mansion sat untouched for ove This six-floor Paris mansion sat untouched for over 15 years. @hugotoro_ took it on and designed every single thing inside it himself, from the custom furniture down to the napkin rings and staff uniforms.
That level of control is what makes the result so specific. Rich materials, sculptural forms, cinematic lighting but nothing feels decorative for its own sake. Every detail was considered as part of one complete vision, and you feel it in every room. ✨

Natural light is the one thing every room has in c Natural light is the one thing every room has in common here, but the window shape, wall material, and time of day make each one feel like an entirely different experience. ☀️
It’s a reminder that light isn’t just a condition in a room. It’s a design decision.
→ Save this if you’re thinking about how light works in your own space.

I visited a new friend Amy, founder of Keur-Amy LaI visited a new friend Amy, founder of Keur-Amy Langseth @keuramylangseth at her chic Paris studio in the Marais and left completely obsessed! Every bag she makes is intentional, considered, and honestly unliIke anything I’ve seen. The kind of craftsmanship you don’t stumble upon easily.
She’s still under the radar. For now. 😌
