There I said it. Actually, knotty pine is not just fine it’s fabulous. Take an interesting 70s home, play to its strengths and celebrate the wooden interiors. Add only touches of black and white, streamline the furnishings and BAM! you have a stylish country getaway without bringing out the can of white paint. Belleayre A-Frame in Highmont, NY by BHDM.
