Love the effortless mix of natural beauty and glam touches in our 2010 Home of the Year? If you want to create a similar look in your own space, start here, with this collection of distinctive pieces that jibe well for a look of natural sophistication.

 

 

 

1 Delicate meets dramatic in the rock-crystal chandelier that presides over the living room in our Home of the Year. For a similar effect, try the Flowerfall Chandelier by Oly Studio; its cascading strands of cast-resin flowers are like the ephemeral arms of a weeping willow. Turn the light on and enjoy the warm, dramatic glow. olystudio.com

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2 David Stine Woodworking offers a new take on natural with the Pine Cant Bench, a solid block of hand-planed white pine set atop two black walnut runners. Pair the bench’s beautiful grain with clean-lined, glossy pieces and you’ll achieve the nature-dressed-up look à la the grand entryway. stinewoodworking.com

 

 

 

 

 

 

3 If you think the nailhead-studded chest in the daughter's bedroom is to die for (like we do), then you’ll love the
Vendome Pois Chest of Drawers by Italian furniture purveyor Nella Vetrina: its gracefully contoured white-lacquered wood goes glam with a swirl of sparkling Swarovski crystals and chrome-plated diamond knobs. nellavetrina.com

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4 Admiring the gyroscope-inspired light fixture in the home’s casual dining space? This iteration is its fancier counterpart. The Kate Lantern by Circa Lighting, a sculpture of aged iron and antique brass, is part medieval, part contemporary—and sure to make a statement. circalighting.com

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5 Sleeping in this natural wonder is nothing like camping. Designer Diane Ross reclaims downed wood from tree-cutters located within 500 miles of her studio, then crafts every element of her Birch Tree Beds (each custom-fit and often built on site) from the same tree. rusticfurniture.net
