Interiors that embody today's "traditional"

I think the below interiors really capture what I might consider today's "traditional" home. These are all real homes, so they aren't the staged, sometimes unlivable, concepts we see in magazines.

What do you think? How would you describe today's "traditional" home?

Have a beautiful weekend!

We've had a rare few days here in Maryland with little humidity, which makes the 80 degree temperatures and sunshine super pleasant. Hopefully the weather where you are is beautiful too. Have a great weekend!

You can smell spring coming in these photos!

These gorgeous shots are the genius of photographer Debi Treloar. They remind me of hot summers growing up on the Chesapeake Bay. There was a time of day that was so still one couldn't do anything but nap in a shady spot or read in a corner by an open window. I can smell the warm air and almost hear the flower buds opening. *sigh* I need a country garden!

I would have spent so many days in this room reading Anne of Green Gables.





It's hard to imagine days so hot you didn't even want to turn on the lights, but that's what this image reminds me of.

Beautiful Carpeted Rooms!

Carpeted rooms aren't normally featured here on Decorology, as I tend to have a penchant for hardwood floors. However - the folks at Fun on the Floor have lots of pretty and inspirational home carpet ideas. I could see why one would want carpeting in a bedroom, den, or child's playroom, and it looks like they have a lot of modern and chic options. Their photos are really gorgeous too, which scores major points with me! How about you guys? Do you have carpeting around your home?



Love the high white ceilings!






...what a great rug pattern
