This rustic mountain ranch home featured on Architectural Designs is a perfect blend of warmth, contrast, and timeless style.
The walls are painted White Sand, a soft and airy neutral that keeps the space feeling open and inviting.
But it’s the layering of textures and accent colors that really bring it to life.
Light French Gray (see our review) shows up in the details—an accent wall here, a beautifully serene bathroom there, and even in the fabrics on the furniture, adding just the right amount of depth.
Deer Valley warms things up, especially in the cabinetry and wood finishes, giving the home that rich, grounded feel.
Tricorn Black (reviewed here) makes a bold statement, wrapping the exterior in rich drama and appearing inside on key features like the fireplace, pantry, and statement cabinetry.
It all comes together effortlessly, making this home feel both relaxed and refined.
Kitchen
This kitchen is a masterclass in contrast and warmth.
Tricorn Black cabinetry anchors the space, adding depth and a dramatic edge against the crisp White Sand walls.
Light French Gray softens the look in textiles and seating, keeping things relaxed and inviting.
Deer Valley wood tones in the cabinets and shelving bring an organic warmth that balances the bold black accents.
Touches of brass in the lighting and hardware add a hint of elegance, making the whole space feel thoughtfully layered.
It’s a kitchen that feels both modern and timeless—bold but not overpowering, warm yet refined.
Bathroom
See how the soft White Sand on the walls creates this lovely, airy feel?
It’s a perfect backdrop for the subtle Light French Gray tones again in the rug, grounding the space without being too heavy.
And that pop of SW Blue Chip on the door?
It’s just enough to add a touch of personality, right?
The whole palette’s so calming, it makes you want to linger.
It’s a great example of using neutrals with a whisper of color for a truly serene vibe.

Study
Benjamin Moore High Park works its magic in this study! It’s such a rich, grounded green, isn’t it?
Poured across the built-ins, walls and ceiling really creates this cozy, enveloping feel, like you could curl up with a book and just disappear.
And see how it plays with the Light French Gray in the rug?
It’s a beautiful, subtle contrast, keeping the space from feeling too monotone.
Then you’ve got the White Sand a bit on the desktop and pillow; that touch of lightness really stops the room from feeling heavy.
And that whisper of Deer Valley in the warm wood tones brings in a lovely organic element, just enough to keep it interesting.
