SERENITY RULES The living room of an urban cottage reveals its creative owner’s passion for layering earthy elements into a serene, monochrome palette. Light floods the space thanks to large windows, white-painted concrete floors and the high, open-truss ceiling – and the eye-catching centerpiece is a beautiful contemporary chandelier made from clay beads. The wall-mounted mirror is inspired by the form of an anemone and made of coconut sticks, and adds further natural texture to the space, as does the rustic wood side table. Tip “My personal aesthetic has been very constant,” says homeowner and design consultant Shelley Street (instagram. com/shelley.space.solutions). “I’d say my colors are ‘beach pebble’ shades rather than slavishly monochrome: white, obviously, but also charcoals, grays, chalk.” The clay bead chandelier is by Mud Studio (mudstudio.net).
