RH Introduces Furnishings Inspired By Colorado’s High Country

This article features the insights of Alexandra Gove, co-owner of Hygge Life, on where to find unique home decor in Colorado's High Country. Gove and her husband, Koen van Renswoude, established Hygge Life five years ago, introducing a Scandinavian-inspired design aesthetic to the Vail Valley. Their boutique, known for handcrafted ceramics, shearling, candles, and classic Scandinavian design, has recently expanded to include more furnishings, lighting, and home decor, along with interior-styling services. The physical space of Hygge Life in Avon is designed to emulate a serene residential home, characterized by plaster walls, soft lighting, and constant candlelight, embodying Gove's vision of a retail store as an artist's personal curation. The article highlights three specific high-country home goods boutiques recommended by Gove, offering diverse styles and product selections. The first recommendation is Vintage Magnolia, located in Riverwalk at Edwards. Gove describes it as an "eye candy" experience, emphasizing its blend of a popular floral studio with a warm, bohemian home decor and gift assortment. She particularly appreciates the shop's unique and artistic offerings, which stand out from commonly repeated products seen on social media. The store features a wide array of pillows, blankets, planters, and various textures, alongside floral designs that exhibit a loose, organic style. A notable aspect is the visible worktable where florists assemble arrangements, contributing to the shop's transparent and engaging atmosphere. The second featured destination is Collective Design + Furnishings in Frisco, described as a hub for "mountain-modern" design. Gove notes a growing trend away from traditional mountain aesthetics, and Collective is presented as a resource for those seeking a fresher yet still inviting look. The showroom is characterized by its spaciousness and beautifully arranged furnishings and accessories for every room. Additionally, it offers a full-service design team to assist customers in bringing their design visions to life. The article implies that this store caters to a clientele looking for contemporary and sophisticated design solutions for their mountain homes. Finally, Gove recommends R|D Home in Steamboat Springs, an establishment affiliated with the local design firm Rumor Design + ReDesign. Her discovery of this shop during a stroll impressed her with its size and beauty, including a chic coffee bar and a communal table, encouraging visitors to linger and appreciate the space. The store offers an extensive collection of furniture, lighting, and decor, featuring many unique and playful items, from sculptural lounge chairs to decorative objects and special upholstery fabrics. Gove specifically mentions finding a roll of Kelly Wearstler wallpaper and an antique dresser there, underscoring the shop's eclectic mix of old and new pieces, which makes for an engaging shopping experience and allows customers to find distinctive items. #HomeDecor #ColoradoDesign #HyggeLife #RetailTherapy #InteriorDesign #MountainModern #ScandinavianDesign #HighCountry

This article showcases four distinct Colorado home design projects, highlighting the collaborative efforts of talented architects and interior designers in bringing homeowners' visions to life. Each project emphasizes unique design philosophies, material selections, and functional considerations tailored to individual needs and the Colorado landscape. First, the 'Longshot Ranch' in Eagle County is presented as a modern rustic barn designed by Forum Phi for a couple with contrasting aesthetic preferences. The husband desired a contemporary, modern aesthetic and a working ranch, while the wife preferred a rustic style and connection to civilization. The resulting 3,763-square-foot, two-bedroom barn, completed in 2021, successfully integrates residential living with agricultural space on a 35-acre plot. It features reclaimed white oak floors, oil-rubbed bronze, natural stone, and stainless steel in its interiors. The exterior utilizes reclaimed barnwood siding and wire-brushed Douglas Fir trim, complemented by a rusted metal roof. Emphasizing sustainability, the design incorporates passive solar gain through southeast orientation and steel solar shades, along with a 12 kW photovoltaic system. This project demonstrates a minimalistic approach to a rustic modern ranch, designed for environmental engagement and longevity. Next, 'Funk It Up' describes a whole-home remodel in Littleton’s Bowmar neighborhood, undertaken by Kimberly Timmons Interiors, Gruber Construction, and Red Pencil Architecture. The homeowners, Julia and Sam Wilder, sought a fun, functional, colorful, and sophisticated space for their three children, reflecting their personality. The original 1970s midcentury-modern ranch, characterized by a choppy floor plan and dated decor, underwent a complete transformation. The main living space was opened up, ceilings were vaulted, and the staircase was reconfigured to create an open and airy feel. The design maintained the home’s midcentury-modern architecture while incorporating bold color pairings like brushed gold accents, moody matte black wall coverings and cabinets, and pops of burnt orange and cool blue. Unique functional built-ins were integrated throughout the 4,000-square-foot, five-bedroom residence. The third project, 'Mountain Modern,' features a 7,500-square-foot Aspen home designed by Chicago-based architect Celeste Robbins of Robbins Architecture. This home is highlighted in her monograph, _The Meaningful Modern Home: Soulful Architecture and Interiors_. The design goal was to create a home that possessed scale, strength, and permanence to harmonize with the mountainous terrain, while also reflecting the quiet elegance of the valley's natural elements. Robbins drew inspiration from the Clyfford Still Museum for the facade, utilizing vertical board-formed concrete to create a textured pattern that complements the snowy peaks. This material is juxtaposed with expansive glass walls, including a 32-foot-wide motorized glass wall in the great room, which blurs the lines between indoor and outdoor spaces. Shawn Henderson curated the interiors, combining custom, vintage, and contemporary pieces to achieve sophisticated yet comfortable living spaces. Finally, 'Buckhorn Ranch' showcases a luxurious, modern-meets-rustic home in Crested Butte, designed by Susie Ver Alvino of Blank Slate & Co. for the Hunter family. Completed in 2022, the 4,000-square-foot, five-bedroom, 5.5-bath home by architect Daniel J. Murphy and builder Ian Mason blends contemporary furnishings with comfortable accents. The interiors feature Sherwin-Williams’ Snowbound paint, Bianco Montcarte marble countertops, and a custom steel hood in the kitchen. Thick wooden beams of locally handcut, raw-knifed, and burned Douglas fir adorn the kitchen and living room. Custom rugs, upholstery, and furniture are used throughout, with matte black painted window interiors to enhance visual impact. Design details include handcrafted marble mosaic bathroom tiles, plush Overland sheepskin rugs, and a 550-pound concrete bathtub in the primary suite. Phillip Jeffries wallcoverings and natural stone elements integrate the home with its Colorado surroundings. The home also incorporates practical amenities like a soaring refrigerated wine wall and features unique artistic touches such as a vintage chairlift seat from Crested Butte’s Teocalli lift on the front porch. #ColoradoHomes #ArchitecturalDesign #InteriorDesign #ModernRustic #SustainableDesign #MidcenturyModernRemodel #LuxuryInteriors #MountainModernArchitecture #ResidentialDesign

This article highlights four high-style vacation destinations in Colorado, offering a blend of adventure and sophisticated design that can inspire fresh ideas for home decor. Each location presents a unique aesthetic, from opulent Western themes to contemporary mountain chic, catering to various design preferences. The first destination, Kessler Canyon, is a 15,000-acre resort featuring five cabins and two guest suites. The design embraces a "more is more" philosophy, showcasing hotel mogul Richard Kessler's personal collection of antique guns and taxidermy. Authentic details, such as bronze-inlaid poker chips on pool tables, prevent the Western theme from becoming kitschy. The expansive wrap-around front porch with handmade rocking chairs is a notable feature. Located in De Beque, Kessler Canyon offers nightly rates ranging from $395 to $895. Dunton River Camp, nestled in the San Juan Mountains along the Dolores River, is the second featured getaway. Owned by art collectors Christoph and Katrin Henkel, this luxury campsite comprises eight tents that reflect a devotion to stylish living. Designer Christina Rossi conceived custom beds that don't sit flush with the wall to create an airier feel. The tents boast en-suite bathrooms and are adorned with cowhide rugs, Bolivian frazadas, and custom bedding from L’aviva Home. The communal 19th-century farmhouse, meticulously renovated in 2013, features quirky accessories like horsehair-stuffed rocking chairs, fish lights made from real fish, and antique milk bottles. Starting at $1,500 per night, Dunton River Camp is located in Dolores. Gateway Canyons Resort & Spa, a 6,000-acre resort, is the third destination, distinguished by its locally inspired style. The design pays homage to the surrounding red-rock canyons and petroglyph-covered slickrock. Owners Maureen and John Hendricks collaborated with designer Suzanne Geibel McCammon to select a color palette that mirrors the Unaweep Canyon backdrop. Accent walls in each suite are painted with real copper and iodized to create a unique patina, while upholstered pieces and accessories feature Southwestern hues of turquoise, deep red, and soft yellow. Detailed wood case goods complement the saturated color scheme. Handcrafted Peruvian-wood barn doors are a prominent design element in the Kayenta and Casitas rooms. Rates range from $400 to $1,700 per night at this Gateway location. Finally, Scarp Ridge Lodge in Crested Butte is a 12,000-square-foot Victorian property that blends history with refined modern style. Originally an 1885 saloon and dance hall, the lodge, owned by Eleven Experience, features a restored 19th-century facade and original wooden double doors. The fully renovated six-bedroom interior exhibits exceptional craftsmanship, including a stair railing and metal chairs forged by local blacksmith Jeff Brethauer. Beams reclaimed from a Tennessee tobacco farm highlight the architecture. The decor maintains a light and chic aesthetic with a neutral palette and layered textural linens, deviating from typical mountain retreat styles. Bluestone flown in from Belgium accentuates the cool hues in the bathrooms and lobby. Summer rates start at $860 per guest per night. #ColoradoTravel #LuxuryGetaways #InteriorDesign #HomeDecorInspiration #VacationRentals #WesternDesign #MountainResorts #BoutiqueHotels

Ralph Lauren Home showcased its Fall 2025 Canyon Road Collection at Milan Design Week, offering a comprehensive look into American living interpreted through the brand's distinctive aesthetic. The presentation, set within a refined Milanese venue, highlighted Ralph Lauren's philosophy of design as an expression of personal identity, drawing on themes of cultural memory, domestic comfort, and cinematic influences. The event provided an immersive experience that connected various lifestyle narratives with the newly introduced collection. The Canyon Road Collection is inspired by the American Southwest's landscape and artisanal traditions, serving as a homage to Ralph Lauren's appreciation for the region. The collection's narrative emphasized natural materials, earth-toned color palettes, and handcrafted elements. A significant feature of this collection was the third Artist in Residence collaboration, which spotlighted the work of Naiomi and Tyler Glasses. Their contributions integrated traditional craft with modern design sensibilities, bringing an authentic regional perspective to the collection. The collection spans furniture, textiles, rugs, and tableware, with each item designed to reflect the layered textures and authentic materials characteristic of the Canyon Road theme. Upholstery and fabric offerings showcased tactile weaves and sun-faded colors, while wooden furniture pieces featured warm finishes and robust forms, aiming to evoke a sense of lived-in comfort and familiarity. The installation at Milan Design Week was structured to present various iconic Ralph Lauren Home lifestyle environments. Each room was designed to transport visitors through different settings, from East Coast estates to rustic desert residences, illustrating the breadth of Ralph Lauren’s home design vocabulary, which encompasses tailored elegance, romanticism, ruggedness, and nostalgia. The meticulous details in furniture and decorative accessories, such as aged leather, polished metals, and hand-finished woods, were instrumental in establishing a tangible sense of place within each scene. Key elements of the Canyon Road Collection included hand-knotted rugs, ceramic serving ware, and bed linens adorned with subtle, repeating patterns that echoed traditional weaving techniques. These cohesive design layers contributed to a unified visual narrative across the product range. The Artist in Residence program, particularly the collaboration with Naiomi and Tyler Glasses, enabled Ralph Lauren Home to explore new design directions. Their work brought a blend of generational craftsmanship and contemporary voice, enriching the Canyon Road collection with depth and local insight. The duo's designs for furniture and fabrics explored themes of nature, ritual, and memory, presenting them in a manner that avoided mere imitation. Their influence was evident in the floor coverings, printed fabrics, and subtle patterns, which referenced traditional Native design while remaining relevant to the modern home, offering both specific cultural grounding and broad appeal. Ultimately, the Milan presentation articulated Ralph Lauren's broader creative vision, portraying the home as both a private sanctuary and a personal stage where aspirations are realized as daily experiences. The thoughtfully designed rooms, textiles, and furnishings collectively conveyed the emotional significance of living spaces, meticulously crafted with precision and purpose. #RalphLaurenHome #CanyonRoadCollection #MilanDesignWeek #InteriorDesign #Furniture #HomeDecor #AmericanSouthwest #ArtisanCollaboration #LifestyleDesign

This article highlights six woodworking studios located in the Hudson Valley, emphasizing their contributions to the contemporary furniture and home goods scene. The region is noted for its high-quality craftspeople, with craft fairs like Field + Supply, The Farmhouse Project, and Woodstock-New Paltz Art & Crafts Fair showcasing their work. The featured woodworkers are recognized for their distinct styles, commitment to sustainability, and use of locally sourced or reclaimed materials. Brian Persico, based in Windham, creates one-of-a-kind furniture and functional objects, drawing inspiration from natural materials and historical craft techniques. He prioritizes locally sourced wood, often from within 20 miles, and utilizes natural finishes and glues, some based on 16th-century recipes. His experience with unusual natural materials in archery bow making, such as horn, bone, and sinew, influences his designs, notably in his Windham series, which incorporates antler pins. Examples of his work include a pine and osage kindling box with hand-cut dovetail joinery and a bent Osage Orange handle, and a walnut cove mirror crafted with an antique architectural molding plane. New York Heartwoods, operating out of Kingston, was founded by Megan Offner in 2010. Her mission stems from her experience as an advertising set designer, where she observed excessive waste of wood materials. The studio reclaims discarded lumber and repurposes Hudson Valley trees felled by natural causes or development. This reclaimed wood is then used in their carpentry studio to create bespoke furniture and products, or sold to architects, designers, and other woodworkers. Noteworthy pieces include the Eclipse Coffee Tables, designed to be nested or used independently, and the Highland Coffee Table, characterized by its faceted corners, butterfly key inlays, and a hand-shaped Mid-Century inspired base. FN Furniture in Stone Ridge, established by Ken Landauer in 2017, focuses on creating well-designed, affordable, and zero-waste furniture. Landauer's designs for indoor and outdoor chairs, benches, and sofas are informed by yogic principles, ensuring comfort and proper alignment. Indoor pieces are made from multi-layered Baltic Birch Plywood using a CNC machine. Following requests for outdoor and office furniture, a line of outdoor pieces was launched in 2020, utilizing marine-grade, high-density plastic. The F2 Rocker, available in vibrant colors like red, yellow, and green, and the F2 Writing Desk with its thoughtful storage nooks, are highlighted examples. Samuel Moyer Furniture, with studios in Staatsburg and Los Angeles, is dedicated to crafting furniture and artwork intended to last for generations, thereby reducing waste. Moyer's handmade, made-to-order cabinets, tables, consoles, chairs, and beds often incorporate brass with unique, sometimes self-milled woods such as locust or American black walnut. His work frequently features unfinished sections that expose the inherent beauty of the wood and the crafting process, with a focus on statement joinery and showcasing raw edges. KHEM Studios in Stanford, founded in 2016 by Kari Britta Lorenson and Erik S. Guzman, emerged from their desire for simple, clean contemporary designs using natural solid hardwoods. Both founders have backgrounds in sculpture, which influences their homeware and furniture collections. They design and produce pieces in their Stanford studio using locally sourced kiln-dried hardwoods. Featured items include the Mega Whale Bone Cutting Board, which combines artistry and functionality with its size and deep channel, and the Unity Bench, praised for its elegant lines and unique angles, suitable for various spaces. Accordance with Nature, located in Accord, is a design and furniture studio established by self-taught furniture makers Patrick Turiello and Leah Fabish. Their backgrounds in sculpture, architecture, and industrial design are evident in their work, which ranges from sculptural side tables to custom wall-mounted shelves and peg rails. Each piece is designed and manufactured by Turiello and finished by Fabish, often utilizing repurposed tools and machinery. The Woven Shelf No. 1 in White Oak is highlighted for its delicate interwoven slats and compact design, and the Peg Rail No. 2 in Ebonized Oak is noted for its stylish organization capabilities in entryways. These six studios collectively represent a commitment to craftsmanship, sustainable practices, and the creation of unique, high-quality furniture and home goods in the Hudson Valley, contributing to a vibrant local design economy. Each studio offers distinct approaches to woodworking, from reclaiming materials to integrating artistic and ergonomic principles, all while focusing on durability and aesthetic appeal. #HudsonValleyWoodworkers #ContemporaryFurniture #HomeGoods #SustainableDesign #HandcraftedFurniture #LocalCraftsmanship #InteriorDesign #Woodworking #ArtisanFurniture

The High Point Market, renowned as the world's largest home furnishings trade show, presented a multitude of innovative and beautifully designed pieces during its Fall 2025 event. Despite the intense schedule of appointments and showroom visits, a dedicated editorial team actively sought out emerging trends, practical home solutions, technological advancements, and aesthetically pleasing items.

Modern country style has emerged as a favored aesthetic, resonating with a broad audience seeking comfort and tradition in their homes, especially in the post-pandemic era. This design philosophy emphasizes traditional furniture forms crafted from robust, unpretentious materials, presenting an uncluttered and unassuming visual appeal. The style's focus on natural textures contributes to a sense of warmth and wholesomeness, offering a soothing antidote to contemporary anxieties. Lucy Uren, co-founder of Rowen & Wren, has championed this style for a decade, defining it by timeless, linear shapes and natural, slightly weathered materials. Her recent designs, influenced by her move to a 17th-century thatched cottage with a modern extension in rural Hampshire, demonstrate how classic and contemporary elements can be harmoniously integrated. This integration involves updating older forms with new finishes, ensuring they complement diverse architectural styles within a single home. Rowen & Wren's recent outdoor collection, featuring tactile materials like rusted iron and hand-woven rattan, exemplifies this philosophy, designed to blend seamlessly with natural environments and appreciate over time, much like the cherished character of aged terracotta pots. The modern country aesthetic incorporates specific elements such as dressers, cupboards, and open shelving that promote a sense of openness and accessibility. Cosy armchairs draped in loose linen covers and old-fashioned bedsteads, often high enough to accommodate storage beneath, contribute to the style's inviting and practical nature. The use of plain linen cushions and knitted throws enhances the tactile experience, while seasonal additions like gingham patterns on tablecloths, curtains, or bed linen introduce a touch of playful charm. These elements collectively create an interior that feels lived-in and comfortable. Timber, particularly oak, is a cornerstone material in modern country design, celebrated for its visual beauty, distinctive grain, and warm color. George Miller, a home designer at Neptune, highlights oak's heritage and its connection to British furniture-making traditions, noting its nostalgic appeal. The post-lockdown period has heightened a yearning for familiarity, prompting many to seek furniture that evokes memories of family heirlooms or ancestral homes. Neptune's Wycombe dining chair, crafted from unstained oak with a rush seat, exemplifies this trend, offering a blend of traditional craftsmanship and enduring design. More affordable alternatives, such as spindle-back chairs from John Lewis and Habitat, make this timeless style accessible to a wider audience. Modern country designs frequently feature traditional shapes reinterpreted in contemporary colors. Neptune, for instance, updates its painted kitchens with a spring/summer 2021 palette of burnt sienna and flax blue. Conversely, designer Jack Trench employs a traditional material palette to create sleek, modern designs, as seen in a barn conversion where a ceiling-high divider of tongue-and-groove paneled weathered oak separates living areas. This intervention, while aesthetically modern with its graphic forms and geometric shapes, respectfully integrates with the historic building's materials, such as the original oak rafters. This thoughtful approach ensures that contemporary elements gain a timeless quality, embodying the comforting and enduring appeal that defines modern country style. #ModernCountryStyle #HomeDecor #InteriorDesign #FurnitureTrends #NaturalMaterials #TimelessDesign #PostPandemicTrends #RuralLiving #DesignPhilosophy

Tailored Home, an upscale design center, has opened its second location in Greenville, Delaware, taking over the space previously occupied by The Enchanted Owl at Two Greenville Crossing. The new store builds upon the legacy of its predecessor, which operated for over half a century, selling fine china and other home accoutrements. Starr Osborne, the founder of Tailored Home, identified a strong market in Chateau Country for her design services and retail offerings, drawing parallels between Greenville's sophisticated clientele and that of her successful first location in Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia. Osborne’s business portfolio also includes Philadelphia’s first home-staging firm and a white-glove relocation service.

The store continues to embrace tradition by offering a bridal registry that combines personalized consultation with a digital platform.

Osborne, an interior designer by profession, emphasizes the importance of setting a beautiful table for any occasion, aiming to create a welcoming atmosphere for guests and encouraging the regular use of quality items. Among the legacy brands carried by Tailored Home are Herend, a porcelain manufacturer favored by royalty such as Queen Victoria and Princess Diana, as well as Simon Pearce and Mottahedeh, all of which were previously staples at The Enchanted Owl. In an expansion of its product range, Tailored Home has also introduced bed and bath products, featuring luxury brands like Abyss & Habidecor, John Robshaw, Matouk, Pigeon and Poodle, and Sferra.

Her philosophy centers on the belief that homes should be both aesthetically pleasing and comfortable, serving as a cherished space for individuals to live and grow.

Designed by Austin's Mark Ashby Design, with architecture by San Antonio firm Ford, Powell & Carson, the family compound emphasizes durability, beauty, and comfort for a family of hunters and outdoor enthusiasts. The design team, led by senior designer Anne Grandinetti, focused on creating elegant and refined interiors that could withstand the rigors of ranch life, including muddy boots, pets, and active grandchildren.

This strategy also highlighted the architectural details of the house without overwhelming them with heavy paints or finishes. A central feature of the ranch house is its 100-foot hallway, described as grand yet welcoming.

A mesquite-topped island is painted in a custom color called “O’Neil Ford,” honoring the architectural firm's founder. The entry features an antique rug from Black Sheep Unique and a vintage bench with the ranch's logo hand-carved into it, reflecting the property's identity. The dining room, with its 15-foot cedar grape stake and Douglas fir beam ceiling, hosts a 15-foot dining table by Kartwheel Studio, specifically designed to facilitate conversation among guests. The living room provides ample comfortable seating, including sofas upholstered in indoor-outdoor fabric and leather recliners, blending elegance with durability. The homeowners' bedroom maintains a neutral palette, with subtle nods to the hunting lodge theme through elements like Springbok hide bolsters and a custom cowhide plaid rug. The accompanying bathroom features a white oak vanity with Ocean Blue travertine, matching the tub surround. Outdoor amenities include a swimming pool with expansive views and a covered porch that spans the length of the single-story structure. A bunk room for grandchildren includes camp-style iron beds, colorful vintage art, and unique bedside lamps made from old drill bit pieces, adding a playful touch. The article concludes by listing the key design and construction collaborators for the project. #RanchStyle #LuxuryInteriors #TexasDesign #HuntingLodge #CustomFurniture #InteriorDesign #ArchitecturalDetails #DurableDesign #SouthTexas
