Contemporary Country aspires to be the perfect family home with plenty of authentic, natural materials, real wood, sisal and stone. A colour palette of soft whites, greys and muted pastels is used to warm everything up, along with wood burning stoves and cosy textured linens. Use the treasures that the kids have collected from walks on the beach to accessorise and bring your living spaces to life.
Relaxed and informal is just what a Contemporary Country dining space is all about. Dressed up or down, your table should cater for guests, family brunches and everyday activities while large sideboards, display units and cabinets house everything from crockery and utensils to collected treasures and kids toys.
We've pulled together some of our favourite looks from our recent Contemporary Country photoshoot to show you show you can achieve this style and inspire you to create your own take on it.
Dining alfresco
Rockport is all about relaxing, exactly what our Contemporary Country look stands for. We took our compact Rockport dining set outside for an informal dinner on a lazy summer evening. Accessorised with plenty of lanterns, candles and fresh flowers the Rockport's painted finish is fresh and modern and combined with the rustic table top is the perfect juxtaposition of contemporary and country.
Sunday brunch
A stripped back, comfortable, family dining room is made complete with our large Rockport dining range. Storage for everything from wine bottles to plates and glasses allows you to adapt the look to your own space. We accessoriesed our relaxed Sunday brunch with comfortable cushions in a clean contemporary fabric, perfect for children and adults alike. The rustic table top is big enough for all sorts of treats and can be extended when the rest of the family turn up.
