Midday Muse: Blending the Urban and the Rural

This photo, from the portfolio of Martyn Thompson, exemplifies an urban-meets-rural aesthetic that is often attempted, but rarely successfully implemented. Not so with the owner of this masculine (and luxurious) bathroom. The tufted chair, industrial fixtures, and salvaged sign are a surprising complement to the rough-hewn wide-wood floors and elk antlers. I wouldn't doubt that the owner of this abode is someone whom I might have a little something in common, given our shared taste in décor.
