Antique beds and crisp linens for an easy welcome.

french country bedroom
Gascon Country
Place the bed on the main wall and keep a generous route between its foot and the writing desk. Use the window wall for a small desk and reserve the armoire for guests’ belongings.

french country curtains
French Provincial
Frame the sleeping alcove with curtains that open fully beyond the bed. Keep the round table outside the sleeping area to provide a separate surface without narrowing access.

french country cottage
Cottagecore
Place the reading chair near the window and turn it slightly toward the bed. Keep the bookcase against the rear wall so the route between the bed and doorway remains open.
