Steal This Look: An Idiosyncratic French Mod Bedroom in Bellport, NY - Remodelista
In the redesign of a colonial house in Bellport, New York, by French designer C. S. Valentin, the interiors have a distinct look balancing the colonial architecture with midcentury furniture, modern textiles, and nervy color.

A full view of the bedroom shows Valentin’s unexpected color palette: shades of yellow, dark gray, pale purple, and a spot of red.
Valentin sourced the vintage lamps from Holler & Squall in Brooklyn and the vintage side tables, designed by a university professor, from Esoteric Survey in San Diego.

Used on the radiators, Farrow & Ball’s Railings is a favorite dark gray.
Paint
The bedroom floors were already painted pale yellow when the owners moved in.
Valentin sourced the pair of vintage lamps at Holler & Squall in Brooklyn and had them rewired. You can find something similar online at Chairish (shown is the Midcentury Italian Swing Arm Floor Lamp) or on 1st Dibs.
Lighting
West Elm’s black ceramic Large Totem Table Lamp is no longer available, but the Morten Table Lamp is similarly stately; $135.
The bench is custom made by Kate Casey of Peg Woodworking.
Furniture
The Ferm Living Kelim Square Cushion is €69.
Accessories
The Ferm Living Large Kelim Rug is €399.
Valentin sourced Wood Blinds to fit the bedroom windows from Just Blinds; $41 for 24-inch-wide panels.
The Fog Linen Cotton Blanket is $142. For more, see our post 10 Easy Pieces: Lightweight Cotton Blankets.
