Interior designer Lynne Knowlton and her husband built a charming retreat in the trees on their property in Ontario, Canada.
Most of the materials they used are reclaimed, including the wood, which came from a friend’s barn destroyed by a tornado, and the doors and windows, reused from old homes and a church. A slide — yeah, a slide! — came from a playground. The rusty spindles on the porch and stairway were found at a yard sale. Even the kitchen sink’s a reused item (from a friend).
Hop over to Lynn’s Design the Life You Want to Live blog to see other photos here and here. Also check out photos of her house here (that’s her day-to-day house); clearly, she loves decorating with twigs, driftwood, and other natural materials that you’ve seen us feature repeatedly on Unconsumption. What’s not to like about all this?!

Wooden buildings often aren’t arbitrarily red.
Falu red (pronounced “FAH-loo”, in Swedish it’s Falu rödfärg) is the name of a Swedish, deep red paint well known for its use on wooden cottages and barns for preservation. The paint originated from the copper mine at Falun in Dalarna, Sweden and consists of water, rye flour, linseed oil and tailings from the copper mines of Falun which contain silicates iron oxides, copper compounds and zinc. Falu red is still widely used in the Swedish countryside.

Welcome to my 'life' blog. The Rural Arcadian.
It is my hope to be able to share images and related posts that reflect my surroundings, my experiences, my hopes, dreams and general interests. I live and work in a very rural setting.
I enjoy outdoor and nature-related activities in my free time as well great music, great real/slow food, cooking with friends, good wine, the ocean, the mountains, the forests fields and dogs. I camp. I hike. I sea kayak. I sail. I walk. I cook. I eat and drink.
Hopefully you find something here that connects with you in some way.
Thank you! Enjoy!!
