Designer Log Cabin

October 1, 2012 by Jane F 7 Comments

designer log cabin - Idaho timber vacation home with red, green and blue winter theme decor by Anthony Baratta - AD via AtticmagTour a super-posh Idaho designer log cabin vacation home done in full-blast Winter mode with ultra-custom details.

One mark of professional décor is the presence of a consistent color palette, style and range of motifs throughout the house. And for certain designers that represents a signature look. One glance at a designer log cabin home by the New York firm of Diamond Baratta (now Anthony Baratta; William Diamond has retired) makes that clear: bold color, abundant pattern, buzzy ceiling and floors, intensely layered rooms, and unwavering attention to thematic details are instantly recognizable as theirs. No doubt you’ve seen their work (which we love for the color and pattern) in the Red Gingham Ceiling Kitchen and the Turquoise Harlequin Kitchen as well.

Red drives this cabin’s color scheme which also includes white, green and the designer’s trademark sky blue. Checks, stars, stripes, plaid, animal, Indian, lake and ski motifs are used throughout in textiles, on painted surfaces and for art. Antique Swedish and German painted furniture mix with Adirondack-style birch and hickory pieces, plus intricately upholstered seating.

The dominant element of both structure and design are the giant reddish logs which comprise walls, beams and structural supports. In the living room [top] and throughout, red pushes the wood tone and keeps everything in play with the log-cabin meme. Hand-quilted pillows and contrast trim enhance the primary colors which are picked up in the custom quilty-rug.

Adirondack mountain furniture style — birch-wood and canoes — is imported from the East coast and blended with neighboring Pacific Northwest totem poles.

Additionally, a red tartan fabric was created for the vintage rattan chairs. Red barber poles fashioned into lamps and lanterns galore keep the mood festive and on-message.

As a family kitchen, this one has a modestly sized work area. However, tiles behind the Viking range are hand-painted to match the overall theme, and the cabinets even manage to look a little understated.

This is the type of furniture used in the Fishing Camp House.

designer log cabin - Idaho timber vacation home with red, green and blue winter theme decor by Anthony Baratta - AD via AtticmagForgive me for drooling over the paint-decorated green and white bench with its red tartan seat pillow. I adore this piece, which sits beneath a piecrust-edge shelf inset with European style folk art panels. A piece like this shows the value of the designer in a designer log cabin. The black and white enameled cattle sign, hanging from the rafter, is a hoot.

designer log cabin - master bedroom of Idaho timber vacation home with red, green and blue winter theme decor by Anthony Baratta - AD via AtticmagThe wonderfully rustic white-birch bed, inset with a painted scene of a mountain lake, is a showstopper in the master bedroom. Red-and-white bed linens coordinate with the borders of a custom rug. Anyone who knows Swedish furniture would immediately spot the elegant antique dresser bedside and a converted paint-decorated vintage water jug inset with a polar bear repurposed as a lamp.

The chest can be used for accessible storage and does double duty as putting-down space at the center of a group of wicker chairs with matching settee done up with red and white awning stripe cushions — as if Santa came down the chimney and sprinkled half the room with essence of candy cane.

designer log cabin - bunk beds in the kids room of an Idaho timber vacation home with red, green and blue winter theme decor by Anthony Baratta - AD via AtticmagThe kids’ room has bunk beds with fun blankets, a ski-sweater carpet, and a sky-blue ceiling complete with snowflakes, a bit of outdoor-indoor fun.

Here, the upholstery on the sofa goes blue (to coordinate with the ceiling) while red-and-white take a backseat as accent fabric on chairs. Taken as a whole, such determinately cheerful, winter-is-forever theme-park house seems contrived — which is precisely the point.

    So cozy!! I sure would’ve never thought of plaid ceilings! (Have to admit I prefer the painted wood ceilings, though.) The seating textiles, the linens, the rugs…all so consistent, homey, and bright without being too much and the patterns in balance with the bold solids and the wood.

    I really love the kitchen backsplash tile. Something like that was my initial vision for my kitchen, but it never came together, so I switched gears. Not that I’m unhappy with my choice, but I’m still wistful about that plan I gave up.
