The cold winter days follow one another inexorably. There are those who have already inaugurated the season of mountain trips. Those lucky enough to have a small house in the mountains can enjoy peaceful weekends of relaxation between excursions, hot chocolate in front of the fireplace and family cuddles under the covers. But there are those who have not finished furnishing the house in the mountains yet. What if only the touch of a soft white pillow is missing to make your mountain home a real dream home?
Let’s start from the beginning. When you have to furnish a mountain home, you need to find solutions to make it as warm and welcoming as possible. The goal to be achieved is to find immediate relaxation as soon as you cross the threshold after a day in the snow. This is why mountain houses are often made with exposed wooden beams. For furniture, warm colors are excellent. For lifestyle accessories such as throws, linens and cushions, it is better to opt for softer colors that create a pleasant contrast with the rest of the furnishings. And here it comes into play: a soft white pillow that lights up the room. Among the best materials for furnishing a small mountain house there are obviously wood and stone, which refer to the natural elements of the external environment, but leather and wool are also valid alternatives. Precisely because of the dominant presence of these warm colors, it is essential to lighten the environment with white and transparent elements, which play down the seriousness of some styles. You don’t need to be an interior designer because, to achieve this, you simply need a soft white pillow: it will be perfect for both the master bedroom and the guest bedroom, where light colors will give brightness to the room. For the materials you can indulge yourself. Our advice is to prefer fabrics that are soft to the touch and, why not, a little fur here and there.
A soft white pillow is always a winning solution, whatever the furnishing style of our mountain home. If you decide to opt for a rustic style, you will have to highlight the reference to the past even in the linen. The ideal fabrics for this purpose are linen, wool, cotton and jute. “Yes” to finished lace for the curtains and on each armchair a soft white pillow, with long or soft hair, will further warm up the atmosphere. The modern style, more than any other, provides for a preponderance of wood and stone. And which pillow goes best with these two materials if not a soft white pillow? Indeed, it is better to abound with decorative pillows, especially in the bedroom, opting for sheets with a light fabric such as cotton or flannel. Linen is also excellent, a breathable fabric par excellence, which lends itself well to all seasons. For entirely wooden cabins, total white is always the best choice. Adding a fur rug to any room, a cream throw on armchairs and sofas, and a soft white pillow on each seat will soften the mood.
