MIDDLE BENCH: Refined Rustic
The Middle Bench project embodies balance — where rustic charm meets modern refinement. Inspired by the surrounding Okanagan landscape, this home pairs warm organic textures with tailored detailing to create a space that feels rooted, sophisticated, and quietly inviting.
The kitchen anchors the design with a dark-stained walnut island set against creamy perimeter cabinetry and veined quartz countertops. Handcrafted ceramic pendant lighting, rattan seating, and brass hardware soften the contrast, creating a palette that feels both elevated and lived in. Natural rustic white oak flooring flows throughout, carrying warmth and continuity from room to room.
Rich walnut doors, plaster-toned walls, and blackened hardware layer in a sense of age and permanence, while rustic white oak beams and subtle panelling introduce lightness and rhythm. Each space is designed to feel both purposeful and personal — refined in form, effortless in feeling.
The result is a home of enduring ease — modern craftsmanship wrapped in natural warmth. A quiet nod to the landscape outside and the timeless comfort within.
