Country Hamptons Style

Country Hamptons here in Australia is all about a no-fuss laid back lifestyle with rustic timbers, an earthy colour palette and elements of nature. It’s about open-plan living where the line between indoors and outdoors is beautifully blurred.

What is Country Hamptons style?

Country Hamptons is all about open plan living which flows throughout the interior of the home to the outdoors. Country homes focus on the kitchen as the heart of the home. Shaker-style cabinets, earthy rustic vibes with exposed beams and a fireplace are focal features. Timber mouldings are pared back in country homes, with Wainscoting in the lower section of the wall to line hallways, living spaces and bedrooms. Lining boards or VJ Wall Panelling is sometimes used above the Wainscoting, or entirely covering the walls with a simple Chair Rail / Dado rail to provide a relaxed feel. The Skirting & architraves feature rounded curves reminisce the rolling country hillside.

Country Hamptons Kitchen

A Country Hamptons kitchen is all about incorporating timber with shaker-style cabinetry created with VJ Panels or lining boards. Dark timber flooring, a pitched ceiling, timber countertops and a large kitchen island are all essential components of this style. A butler’s sink is another crucial style element in a Country Hamptons home with a mix of matte black hardware and brass tapware. Wooden utensils, white ceramics, and open shelving with an array of cookbooks all add to the country look.

Country Hamptons Bathroom

A freestanding bath is the ultimate focal point in a country-styled bathroom, looking out onto a beautiful landscape. The window that looks out onto this view will be framed by thick architraves. Timber again makes an appearance with Lining boards along the walls and around the floor-standing vanity. The vanity itself will incorporate timber features in earthy colours and an above-counter basin which will be paired with brass tapware and white towels.

Country Hamptons Bedroom

The bedroom of a Country Hamptons home should feel calm and relaxing. A neutral bedhead, earthy-toned bed linens, side tables with a pop of colour and some natural greenery should all be present. VJ Panelling in a shaker style along the walls will add a sense of charm and comfort with large windows framed with thick architraves looking out onto a stunning view.

Country Hamptons Living Room

The living room in a Country Hamptons home is truly the centre of activity. Starting with the heart of the room which is the fireplace decorated with floor-to-ceiling stonework and a beautiful timber mantle decorated with cornice and inlay mould. Rich dark timber floorings help keep the style grounded. A barn-style pitch ceiling lined with VJ panels or lining board and paired with exposed beams will offer a stunning feature. Bi-fold doors will open the space up onto the wrap-around verandah and bring some of the outdoors in. It’s also important not to forget the living room walls where you can opt for VJ panels in a shaker style or break it up and have the lower half of the wall decorated with wainscoting whilst the upper half shows VJ panels, the two styles separated by chair rail.
