How would a French costumier style her own stately country house? With quiet, rosy hues, cinematic hints of silver, and linens she sews herself. Take a look inside the redone maison of French stylist and costumier Céline Sathal, where she lives in a tiny village outside of Tolouse.

The living area has generous windows, pale-pink walls, vintage lamps, and an ingenious solution: an Ikea sofa that Sathal split in two.

“The pastel painted walls were already there and I liked their weathered side,” Sathal says.

Sathal designed the simply fitted kitchen around the mantel.

A sink, fitted into a wooden counter.

A sparsely fitted bedroom.

The dining area. This table is a gift from my father,” Sathal says.

“I make all of the pillowcases and some duvet covers,” Sathal says.
