New England Calm


Luminous. Serene. Relaxing. Elegant but informal. Sophisticated but youthful. Understated. All words used to describe this wonderful home. The designer is Victoria Hagan. Using a pallette of white, blue and brown she has created a calm and elegant atmosphere. The mixture of eclectic pieces adds to the uniqueness of this home.

  3. I want to cook in the kitchen, bathe in the bath tub and go for a long, leisurely swim in the pool. The first two rooms I'd furnish differently. but those last ones... wow.

  6. So beautiful. I'm continually drawn back to what I usually call Scandinavian simplicity (although I've latterly realised that 'New England' also fits the bill). Although I do also love the pattern and chintz florals of English country houses I think to live with them long-term would probably drive me nuts. This New England look is just so beautifully calming.

  7. Hello SITS friend! such lovely dream houses, but this one in particular makes me long for one of those elegant old New England beach cottages.
    (my family is from NH, Massachusetts and Maine, so I have a weakness for New England)
