Cottage Living Style

Modern Mantel Since the living room serves as a high-traffic pass-through to the back of the house, McMillan furnished it only with two large chairs and a tea table “for one-on-one conversations.” She stripped out the predictable colonial mantel flanked by built-in bookshelves and replaced them with a limed oak surround. “I didn’t want lots of stuff cluttering it, so I kept it skinny,” she explains. The Persian rug injects some of the only color into the neutral scheme. Its salmon pink, chocolate, and ivory add softness to the modern room.
