Home Town's Erin and Ben Napier have hit upon a foolproof formula for restful retreats: Erin establishes a mood with a serene color palette. Ben swoops in to support her efforts with heirloom-quality constructions. They then conclude their transformations with touchable textiles to create spaces their homeowners will never want to leave. Variations on that formula are what make each room special, of course, and each of the Napiers’ creations has a character all its own. Read on for a look at our all-time favorites.

For their own bedroom, in turn, the Napiers combined gorgeous woodwork (the side table and the hope chest at the foot of the bed are Ben Napier originals, of course) with less-is-more furnishings that step back to let the Mississippi sun spill across their sisal area rug. With artfully mismatched armchairs and nightstands, this side of the room is all about rest and relaxation.

The other half of the primary suite features floor-to-ceiling built-ins (with a library ladder!) and a warm, welcoming work area. We can absolutely imagine Erin coming here in the middle of the night to leave herself a note after dreaming up a fabulous new space.

It takes a moment to notice Erin’s power move in this room, and then it catches your eye: She painted pink and green stripes on the wood-plank floor! A design decision like this is a budget-friendly option when new flooring isn’t part of the plan. It also gives the space a gentle coastal vibe that adds another dimension to the furniture and the driftwood-and-sand tones of the window coverings.
