Farmhouse is a combination of whites and pastels, used on everything from furniture to linens, and the ambiance is warmed up using weathered woods and rustic finishes like oil-rubbed bronze and copper. It’s a classic and timeless theme, which Parnell décor retailers speak to better than the rest.
The Newport loose covered sofa available from Corso Interiors is a perfect example of this. Accessories in this theme such as the Strand Pendant Lamp from Bauhaus are statement, yet simple. The generously sized boheme vase from forma is uniquely 3D printed with hand finishing, adding magic to any home. The Duke bar cart from Trenzseater adds a touch of depth and darkness to this theme, or for lighter earthy tones look to the elegant lines of the Bok Dining Table from Cuchi or Elle Maison Director’s Chair, hand crafted from natural rattan. Bring in the textural element of wallpaper Resene FJ41108 to offset the off-white surroundings of Resene White Thunder and include the slightly deeper contrast of Resene Innocence.
Complete the feeling of serenity with an Archival Pigment Print (‘Harmony’) by Jane Crisp from Parnell Gallery, and a Cosy Throw in Mastice from Alfresco Intexterior Living.

Ralph Lauren Duke Bar Cart
Exquisitely constructed from solid hardwood, the Duke bar cart is inspired by 1930s-era styles and accented with polished stainless steel hardware, including casters for easy movement. Three shelves and an eight-bottle rack provide ample room for glassware and spirits.

Strand Pendant Lamp
The Strand Pendant Lamp is designed with soft, playful forms for a modern expression. The design provides both diffused lighting and direct lighting, the latter through its top and bottom opening. The design is made in a sprayed cocoon material that consists of tiny strands for a complex, intriguing structure that, paired with its modern form, gives the Strand Pendant Lamp an almost cloud-like appearance.
