Steal This Look: An Eclectic Bedroom in Somerset, England

December 1, 2015

Julie and I have been obsessing (again) over the Durslade Farmhouse, the home and arts center of Iwan Wirth and Manuela Hauser, the couple behind Hauser & Wirth, in Somerset, England. This bedroom in particular has us both reassessing our opinions on floral needlepoint. Here we’ve detailed the key elements required to re-create the eclectic look–pairing antiques with clean linens and tea rose with navy.

N.B.: For a Steal This Look on a bathroom in another guest bedroom at Durslade, see Durslade Farmhouse in Somerset: The New Bloomsbury?
