02 Field note

How the room is composed

layout
Interconnected kitchen, dining, and sitting rooms gather around a large hearth, with thick walls, deep openings, and furniture placed informally for daily life.
materials
Limestone, lime plaster, terracotta, aged oak, rush, linen, wrought iron, glazed earthenware, and faded natural pigments carry visible wear gracefully.
furniture
Scrubbed farm tables, rush-seat chairs, linen-covered sofas, carved armoires, and small provincial side tables mix sturdy utility with softened profiles.
lighting
Window light moves across pale plaster and stone, supplemented by simple iron pendants, shaded lamps, and candlelike wall sconces after dusk.
decoration
Ochre pottery, faded indigo textiles, baskets, landscape fragments, and clipped olive branches add regional colour without theatrical staging.
