Reclaimed Rustic

For a warm, rustic feel, the owner of this Connecticut farmhouse chose muted colors and rough hewn textures, like the kitchen s gray blue Shaker style cabinets and honed granite countertops. Ceiling beams reclaimed from an old Canadian barn give the new structure charisma beyond its youthful age. The range hood, made on site from wood leftover from the house s construction, reinforces the simple, homespun feel.
