Pegged four-poster bed is handmade from peeled lodge-pole pine logs. The vegetal-dyed floor rug is a new Navajo; the other Navajos date from 1920.

This room made a great beginning for first-time homeowners. Starting with a classic four-poster and soft blue walls and linens, the couple created a casual but romantic getaway on a budget. A framed poster (on an easel) brings color to the corner behind the bed, and a piece of fabric is simply folded up and tacked above the window’s miniblinds.

Dark stained floors, oak beams and some solid oak furniture respond well to light colours and to feminine pattern when the setting is a bedroom and the choice of dark materials and wallpaper could well emphasize the solemnity of the surroundings. Here the solution is a mixture of pattern: rosebuds and flowery garlands all the way, except for the lining of the fourposter drapes which are in a small size print.
