Provincial Home Living

Thursday, January 7th, 2010

There is something about the word “provincial” that makes me think of French design and lifestyle ~ “Come and stay the weekend at my French provincial home anyone?” It evokes imagery of pride, passion, escape, warmth, history and tradition where time slips by unnoticed so it was with surprise that I discovered a store recently called Provincial Home Living that provided such design aesthetics.

As I am currently designing a house with thoughts running through my mind ~ French Living ~ I explored this store for inspiration. Although the products aren’t genuine antiques, it provides enough of a muse with excellent design and feel to evoke the provincial environment and ideal.

I also ended up finding items that I absolutely LOVE. The black and white theme is in these days; at least for my bedroom.

The black mirror has a brushed, rough aesthetic which would work well in a bedroom.

I love the black ladder. It could work as a towel rack in the bathroom.

The “Alcase” bedside table ~ 2 drawer ($219 AUD) and “Antique” white washed frames: sml $9.95  (AUD), lge $12.95 (AUD), square $14.95 (AUD). All about the washed black and white look.
