Bienvenue! Welcome to The Cottage Journal’s special ssue of French Home featuring a collection of charming homes filled with ideas and color schemes seen in French design.
In this issue we explore the idea, “Ma maison est mon château,” meaning, “My home is my castle.” The featured dwellings are packed with personal style that gracefully reflects the homeowners. Many of these French-inspired interiors have a simple color palette and minimal decorating, which leads to a classic, relaxed design. In France, there is a love and appreciation for natural wood, stone, linens, chandeliers, pottery, and generally clean lines. Throughout this special issue, you’ll find homes and gardens that exude this timeless style.
An interesting feature on decorating with architectural remnants on page 17 is the perfect place to start your journey…
