If there ever was a space that perfectly combined elements of vintage, rustic, stylish, weathered, and colour popping, then it’s absolutely the recently made over Acorn Falls Cottage by Ballard Design.

如果有一个空间，完美地结合元素的复古，乡村，时尚，风化，和颜色爆，那么它绝对是最近由巴拉德设计的橡树瀑布小屋。

Located in Highlands, North Carolina, this mountain home is positively infused with colour in a way that follows contemporary decor trends at the exact same time as it harnesses natural and rustic aesthetics to suit the woodland surroundings designers nestled it comfortably into.

这座位于北卡罗来纳州高地的山庄，以一种紧跟当代装饰潮流的方式，积极地注入了色彩，同时它利用自然和乡村的美学，以适应设计人员舒适地融入的林地环境。

Originally built in the early 1900s, the cottage has long been an historic vacation spot, with countless families renting it out over the years to enjoy the mountain air and benefit from a relaxing escape while still remaining close enough to the town of Highlands to be convenient and not isolated.

这间小屋始建于20世纪90年代初，长期以来一直是一个历史性的度假场所，多年来，无数的家庭都将其出租出去，享受山中的空气，并从放松的逃生中受益，同时仍保持距离高地镇的距离，以方便而不是孤立。

Missy Woolf, an iconic designer famous for her cottage renovations, is responsible for the slightly modernized but still undoubtedly weathered vintage chic aesthetic of the newly overhauled cottage. Her aim was to preserve as much of the building’s original charm as possible while still giving it an update that looks and feels fresh and perhaps even luxurious, in a grounded sort of way.

米西伍尔夫，一个标志性的设计师，以她的别墅翻新，是负责的轻微现代化，但无疑仍然经久不衰的老式别致美学的新装修的小屋。她的目标是尽可能多地保留这栋建筑的原始魅力，同时仍以一种脚踏实地的方式更新它的外观和感觉，甚至是奢华。

This mixed atmosphere was achieved partially through the use of a combination of furnishing choices ranging from high end and designer to locally made artisan pieces that are natural in their materiality. Local artwork is also a large part of the cottage’s revamping, giving it a newfound charm and character while still tying it to its place right there on the mountain.

这种混合的气氛部分是通过使用从高端和设计师到本地制作的手工制品的家具选择的组合来实现的，这些都是自然的。当地的艺术品也是平房改造的很大一部分，赋予了它新的魅力和个性，同时仍然把它绑在山上的地方。

Besides these design choices, the element of the newly redone house that is perhaps the most important is the way the space now plays with colour, particularly turquoise. Besides being very trendy in fashion and design right now, turquoise is a colour that invokes calm, cheeriness, and an upbeat attitude. In the particular muted shade you see in these photos, however, it stirs the same feelings but suits the landscape without seeming to scream too bright against all that natural wood and rock.

除了这些设计上的选择外，新装修的房子最重要的元素可能是现在空间与色彩的关系，尤其是绿松石。除了在时尚和设计上非常时尚，绿松石是一种颜色，唤起平静，高兴，和乐观的态度。然而，在这些照片中你所看到的特别柔和的阴影中，它激起了同样的感觉，但却适合风景，而不是在所有天然的木头和岩石面前尖叫得太亮了。

To incorporate the use of so much turquoise into the house more thoroughly rather than just having the exterior and a few painted pieces bear all the weight of eye catching on their own, we appreciate the way the designer chose to balance the colour with other fun, colourful fabrics that contribute to the sense of having a “pop” where there isn’t just natural wood and plain white.

为了更彻底地将这么多的绿松石应用到房子里，而不仅仅是让外观和一些漆片都能承受着自己的所有眼睛，我们欣赏设计师选择平衡颜色和其他有趣、色彩丰富的织物的方式，这些织物在这里不仅是天然木材和纯白。

On the porch, which features a failing made entirely from branches, a shaded but warm and comfortable seating area has been built. The cottage still has its original layout, which is slightly more traditional than the open concept homes you see more commonly now that usually feature blended indoor-outdoor spaces, so the establishment of a good, solid outdoor place to sit combats the cottage feeling closed off from its beautiful outdoor surroundings.

在门廊上，一个完全由树枝造成的失败，已经建立了一个阴影，但温暖和舒适的座位区。这座别墅仍然有它原来的布局，它比你现在通常看到的开放式概念住宅稍微传统一些，通常是室内和室外空间的混合，所以建立一个好的、坚实的户外空间来坐下来，可以让小屋感觉与它美丽的室外环境隔绝。

White and turquoise follow you throughout the house, from the wicker swing seats on the porch, through the kitchen and living room and on into the bedrooms. Rather than using precisely the same muted turquoise as you see on the cottage’s fashionably faded exterior, however, you’ll notice that some pieces feature a deeper shade of the colour, bordering almost into teal. This grounds the aesthetic and makes it feel more dynamic.

白色和绿松石跟随你在整个房子，从柳条秋千座位在门廊，通过厨房和客厅，一直到卧室。然而，你不会像你在小屋的外观上看到的那样，使用完全相同的柔和的绿松石，你会注意到，有些作品的颜色更深一些，几乎变成了提尔色。这是审美的基础，并使它感觉更有活力。

The kitchen and its accompanying dining room are perhaps the part of the house that feature the most delicious blend of rustic and modern. All of the essentials and amenities are modern and gleaming new, but the use of reclaimed local wood is still heavy in many large features, like the island and the high bar style table, keeping that rustic feel that’s so essential to a mountain cottage.

厨房和伴随的餐厅可能是房子的一部分，其中最美味的混合乡村和现代。所有的必需品和便利设施都是现代的，闪闪发光的新的，但回收的本地木材的使用仍然很重，在许多大的特点，如岛屿和高酒吧风格的桌子，保持了乡土的感觉，这是如此重要的山区别墅。

Of course, the kitchen isn’t the only place that boasts impressive rustic features built in natural materials. We’re also in awe at how much we adore the way the fireplace in the central living room look as thought it has been pieced together right there in the heart of the home, stone by stone. In the winter, this becomes one of the coziest places to gather with loved ones.

当然，厨房并不是唯一用天然材料建造的具有令人印象深刻的乡村特色的地方。我们也对中央客厅里的壁炉是多么的崇拜感到敬畏，就像人们认为它被拼接在一起，就在家里的心脏里，是一块石头。在冬天，这将成为与所爱的人一起聚集的最美丽的地方之一。

Of course, the outside of the cottage is a wonderful space to enjoy as well, beyond just the deck and porch swings! Designers also incorporated a firepit area nestled in the leaves on the lawn, with a safe place to relax in large wooden chairs while the embers glow and the kids roast marshmallows.

当然，小屋的外面也是一个很好的空间去享受，除了甲板和门廊的秋千！设计师们还在草坪上的叶子上安放了一片火热的区域，有一个安全的地方可以在大木椅上放松，而余烬会发光，孩子们会烤棉花糖。
