The trick is not only in using white paint and light textiles - here the proportions are also calculated skillfully. An open rack with floor-to-ceiling shelves adds height to the walls, and a high-positioned curtain rod to the window. The front door opens directly into the living room,therefore, there is nothing superfluous here. To store umbrellas and walking sticks, they use an element characteristic of the "rustic" styles - a voluminous milk can, and as a chest of drawers - an old-fashioned spacious Louis Vuitton suitcase.

Several pillows of different sizes and colors are not only an aesthetically pleasing detail, but also very cozy. Light gray bathroom with window White bathroom with grayelements - steel plumbing, pearl-colored curtains and matte wood countertops - does not seem cold at all. There is a lot of sunlight from a small window - enough for a living plant in the corner to feel great.

Additional room:spectacular veranda Designers treated the design with the same responsibility with which they decorated the interior of the house. The seating corner is separated from the entrance area by a carved screen. Soft sofas, decorated with decorative pillows with different, but harmoniously combined patterns, also look great.
