A decade ago, when Hello Lovely was in its infancy, I connected with some of the most engaging decor inspiration bloggers including Desiree of Decor de Provence. At that time, I fell in love with her grand chateau in Utah, which she traded for this much smaller cottage. Her Ethereal European Country Design Style Cottage With Rustic Wood Ceilings is a new build, yet it inspires with its custom craftsmanship and use of antique materials.

Ethereal European Country Design Style Cottage With Rustic Wood Ceilings
I have always loved DdP’s point of view, the designer’s noteworthy restraint, and the unique way wabi sabi sensibilities are interpreted. In Desiree’s collaborations with her husband and with her father, she arrives at interiors and exteriors that feel plucked from the European countryside.
