The Considered COUNTRY HOME
Heart of the matter
HENRIETTE VON STOCKHAUSEN – VSP INTERIORS
A core part of the country house is the kitchen. In my opinion, the first thing to consider when decorating a country kitchen is how you can make it feel like a room and not just a practical space. Treat it like a drawing room or principal bedroom; pay attention to fabrics, lighting and comfort as well as practicality and suitability to lifestyle. By doing this, the kitchen will feel more inviting. I adore incorporating antiques like dressers along with picture lights, fine art and furnishings that one wouldn’t expect to see in a kitchen so that it feels more like a room. Add antique rugs to soften the space and help with unwanted echoes in larger spaces, unless you have young children or dogs, in which case, stay away!
