HAVE HAD THIS FRENCH COUNTRYSIDE home saved since I had first come across it on photographer Laura Resen‘s instagram page (@lauraresenphotography) from when it was featured in Milieu magazine in Spring 2018.
It is, of course, the 200-year-old Normandy farmhouse of American-born textile designer Susan Snyder and its warm wood beams are what first caught my eye. Now living in a wood ceiling beamed home myself, but in the English countryside, was reminded again of this beautiful space. The home, which she shares with her husband and son, took the designer ten years to completely restore, something the locals don’t often do. The home is now light and bright with a neutral palette, white walls, warm wood and wicker. There are cosy fireplaces and crystal chandeliers and weathered cane settees, checkered dining chairs and so much charm that it makes one want to drop everything and move to Normandy…
