Summary of Modern Country

Modern Country by Nancy Ingram blends the quiet, simple elegance of classic country with a clean, modernist edge to create an entirely new interior genre. When classic country is infused with modern interior design, it becomes bolder. It offers a contemporary attitude, a confident feel that mixes periods, patterns, and pedigrees but embraces the element of restraint. As noted photo stylist and author Nancy Ingram says, "Mix it up and pare it down!"

Modern Country interiors are fresh and lively, with color palettes that include the classics, but combined in new ways or intensities. Monochromatic themes-restful, quiet, calming hues-come into their own in Modern Country. There are no rules-only creative ideas and the courage to blend new with old, traditional with modern, to forge a look that is inviting, warm and even whimsical.

Eight chapters cover interior design ideas for the living room, kitchen, dining room, bathroom, laundry room and office, plus a special section on display options and shopping inspirations. Modern Country shows that by blending the best of classic country with modern themes, the hallmarks of country remain-beauty, simplicity, and that nostalgic yearning for a romantic past that characterizes the classic country look.
