This stunning log cabin has been beautifully designed with rustic details by interiors studio Jessica Jubelirer Design, nestled lakefront in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. This countryside home features whitewashed interiors that contrasts somewhat with its surroundings. Everything you see in the interiors appear as if it has been carefully preserved for decades, very timeless. There is no cliched or predictable organization of space, it is rather very cozy with its textural area rugs strewn over beautiful honey colored hardwood flooring. Floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room allows the homeowners expansive views of the rippling lake. Cozy furniture arrangements reflecting a traditional style gives the home a welcoming cottagey aesthetic. The finished result is a rural log cabin that is fresh, contemporary and modern, but pays homage to the traditions.

Have a look at some other fabulous log cabins featured here on 1 Kindesign: Wilderness mountain family retreat and Stunning mountain rustic log cabin in the Montana wilderness.

The spacious kitchen features a custom designed island with wicker-backed bar stools.

The dining chairs are not typical of a traditional rural home, but rather more modern (or even retro). It’s a living example of cliches reinvented, modern, yet traditional interior design.

High ceilings allowed the opportunity to install vintage light fixtures at various heights.

The bedroom “suite” is the only walled room furnished with drywall. The bedroom floor features wall to wall carpet in an embossing pattern. Rustic old furnishings decorates the space, with classic yet modern drapery curtains on the windows.

The adjoining bathroom is decorated with Asian-style wallpaper and beautiful marble sink.

The family room is spacious and bright, but features an unexpected modern painting for a rural log house.

The log house from the outside is seen as what it is: a comfortable and spacious rural home.
