Rustic decor, luxurious interior design, minimal modern luxe, and Rustic Refined Interior Design reign in this room by Michael Del Piero. #rusticmodern #modernrustic #interiordesign #luxuryminimalism #minimalmodern #modernancient #sophisticateddecor #interiordesigner #michaeldelpiero #hamptons — Interior Design: **Michael Del Piero**; 2016 Hampton Designer Showhouse (photo: **Marco Ricca**). Painting above rustic console: **Francine Turk**. An ivory area rug anchors stunning pieces which include a table draped in a hand-crocheted wool tablecloth. Michael Del Piero envisioned the iron daybed in this rear bedroom as a versatile piece to also double as a sofa. The spacious and luxurious bedroom boasts a seating area with **Jan Ekselius** lounge chairs, a 17th-century armchair, and a marble-topped round concrete coffee table. A rustic wood console makes the perfect pedestal for a tropical planting and African stone beads. The beautiful chaos and impossibly airy salvage metal chandelier illuminates the space as a work of art by **Lucy Sivinski.**

While I have created many black and white modern art pieces over the years…

Black & White Rustic Modern & Vintage Chic Design

To truly succeed with rustic modern and vintage boho, the art of restraint comes into play. Neutrals work like magic. But you also need to mix in plenty of texture, old, and new to add soul.

White Rustic Coastal Cottage Design Style: Atlanta Bartlett & Dave Coote

A white rustic coastal cottage is a vintage chic example of pared down rustic country style. The owners, Atlanta Bartlett & Dave Coote, re-imagined the 1930’s rustic cottage to maximize the lovely light and to ease daily living. A restrained white color palette is a testament as to the magic varying textures can work.

Michele, I want to go into these rooms and touch everything. Then just sit and stare until my eyelids get so heavy that I have to nap surrounded by the loveliness.
