Modern Farmhouse

Distinctive detailing and craftsmanship make this custom mudroom both a welcoming entry and a functional drop zone for backpacks, muddy boots, keys and mail. Shoe drawers fitted with metal mesh allow air to circulate and a custom upholstered cushion in wool windowpane plaid provides a comfortable seat. Leather cabinet pulls, woven wool baskets and lots of Shaker wall pegs make this mudroom a practical standout. Photography: Stacy Zarin Goldberg
