m. elle

mmmmmmmm ... m. elle. It's easy to see why this mother and daughters design team (Mary Lynn Turner and Marie and Emily Turner) made Elle Decor's 5 to watch list. Sophisticated interiors throughout their portfolio but it was this mountain home that had me from the first picture. Understated elegance yes but also casual and inviting. Cocooned in dark rooms with blazing fires and layered textures. Enticed by the bright and white. It's a stone and aged wooden beam dream with conifer clad hills thrown in for free. Retreat is definitely the right word. What a wonderful interpretation to match a stunning site. So much more after the jump.

Love it! That's all what I can say!
I'm a residential designer and it takes a lot to get me to respond to any design. This design is by far one of the most exciting and beautiful designs I've ever seen. I'm very impressed. The designers, Mary Lynn Turner and Marie and Emily Turner, achieve true artistic balance not only of form & function but emotional connection to the human spirit! The home seems to reach out and welcome you in - come in, make yourself at home, get comfortable. Great work! Fantastic work!
it's crazy fantastic. !
The bathrooms are fantastic!
It would be a more than perfect fit for my soul.
I want to live HERE!
Where can we find the blue prints to this house?
Thanks so much!

beautiful house!! living in the countryside, my biggest dream...
I want to live here!!It's such a gorgeous house. I specifically like the entertainment room. My guest will never get bored.I will add a flat television in there or a sound system that will also match the place so as to maintain the homely feel of it. I like my place to have a mini library or bookshelves with my favorite books so that my friends can read them too.
This home would be a perfect place to escape to on the weekends or during the fall/winter. Love the modern country styling of the interior.

beautiful...happiness
I wish I had someone who would select only the best aesthetic logs and pile them just so in strategic places throughout my home so it looked like I was roughing it and having fires all the time. I guess if you have a yard servant you can get them to do it. :)
Please please tell me where I can find the grey cement tile!!! This is the perfect one ...I have to have it for my new master bath.
I love this design style, give people rustic feel. Quiet design , let our hearts back to nature. Great!
