Casual Home in Neutral Tones and Texture
Even though Hurricane Hilary is making waves, we’re headed to the bay area of California to tour a casual home in neutral tones and texture by Jetton Construction. It’s open, bright, and beautiful!

The home uses a lot of white in rooms but adds texture and a bit of warmth in the form of pillows, throws, rugs, and plants.

You won’t find a lot of clutter. Instead, the casual home in neutral tones shows off its bare bones of wood floors, ample windows, and high ceilings.

Rich linen fabric covers the sofa in the family room while a rolling ladder allows easy access to a wall of bookshelves. A cozy window seat creates space for reading or simply enjoying the natural light with ample pillows for cushion.

A wood farmhouse trestle table adds organic appeal and warmth to open living between the living room and white kitchen.

One day I’d love to have a stove like this with a hooded vent above.

The mud room serves double duty as a laundry space. Herringbone tile lines the floor while an oriental rug lends softness and color underfoot.

Painted plank walls lend texture to a bedroom in today’s casual home. A simple piece of artwork adds a touch of color.

Another bedroom with vaulted ceiling repeats the color scheme from the family and living rooms.

Shiplap walls hug the bathroom with its farmhouse sconce lighting.

An oil painting lends color above the free-standing tub. You might remember this image from my post about decorating with landscape paintings.

This home is a bit stark for me and I would have liked the ceiling beams to have been a medium wood color rather than white, but otherwise this clean, minimalist look is very attractive.
The mud room in this house is amazing. I swear, I think my entire life would have been different (better) had I had an actual mud room in any of the houses I’ve lived in. 🙂 Sports lovers have their fantasy football – I have my fantasy mudroom.
I agree. A little too stark and institutional. But different strokes for different folks, right?
Minimalism is beautiful! I love the classy, clean lines and the beautiful white starkness! The “unclutter” is perfect!
This home has beautiful rugs on the floors, plants and pictures to give it color, and for them that is enough to make it a home. Thanks Jennifer.
I like the minimalistic approach to a point but waaaay too much bright white for me. I’d prefer even just varying shades of beige with a lot more natural wood. However, the architecture of this space looks perfect and would be so fun to decorate (in my style, of course- lol). Thank you for the posts- they are always enjoyed! More power to the person(s) in charge of cleaning up fingerprints in this one! Have a great day!
It really is open, bright and beautiful. I can see that it could be too much white for others. However, I love all the white, especially for California, and, if I were living in California, this would be my ideal home.
