master ensuite and family bathroom, and
oval in the guest ensuite.
The master bedroom continues the
monochromatic look, with black-stained
American oak walls and a black headboard on the bed. The black walls help to
frame perfect views of the green countryside. Both the master suite and the family
bathroom also look out to sheltered landscaped courtyards – one on either side of
the house.
Bed linens and upholstered seating in
black and white continue the theme.

Preceding pages and left: This master suite in
a contemporary country house designed by
Guy Shallard features a mix of raw and refined
materials. The bedroom walls are black-stained
American oak, while the bathroom features raw,
shuttered concrete.
Above left and above: Similar materials feature
in the family bathroom. As with all the main
bathrooms, this room also features roughsawn,
white-painted cedar boards. The vanity cabinets
are all in solid American oak, stained black. Deep
drawer bins in the cabinets are blackened steel.
