A masterclass in making the most of natural lighting and space
Published on 30 January, 2023 by Ash ReadMilwaukee-based designer Anna Franklin is aware that natural light is something you have to take advantage of in any space.
"The home was originally uninspired white space," says Franklin, founder and CEO of Stone house Collective. "We wanted to create a place that felt inviting, taking advantage of the abundance of natural light and a color palette that would feel warm and inviting."
To do this, Stone House Collective utilized a mix of timeless and sculptural elements to play with texture, "so it feels like one cohesive space but still feels unique," adds Franklin.
The owners of this Tudor home are a young, active family. “We were thrilled to give them the stylish, functional home they can spend their days in,” explains Franklin. “Every room within this home is textural, and bursting with character. Every piece is intentional, creating a consistent and cohesive space. consistent with the story being told.”
