this is what i would call cozy modern. eclectic spaces that while definitely have a very vintage vibe, don’t swing in the direction of ‘country’ and instead are a little more modern. and they get that way with the addition of contemporary lighting and artwork, bringing in the latest on-trend greenery, and are much more a mixed bag and less matchy-matchy. it’s as if you perhaps inherited a family heirloom, like your grandmother’s windsor chairs but then paired them with a burl wood countertop you made from scratch (like you see below). lesson? don’t be afraid to mix and match what’s old and new, and just keep what you love. because what you love will ultimately make for a very happy, cozy modern home.

Loving the whole urban jungle wave that is increasingly rising! You can’t beat over sized greenery!

Every one of these images make me feel very, very happy. Need to buy more hanging plants this year. Memo to self.
Hello,
I’m obsessed with the print shown in the 1st image. Any idea on where to find it?
P.S. I adore your site!
Thanks,
Kara
Thanks, Kara! I’m not sure, but you could check with the site it’s from Jeska at Lobster & Swan:

I love the white wall paint that’s in many of these photos; for example the pic with two emerald green industrial ceiling/pendant lights. Do you know what the color/brand is?
Thank you –
Hmmm, I am not sure, but for a nice bright white I like Benjamin Moore’s Oxford White. I use it everywhere in my house.
