Furniture from a landscape

I am gingerly trying to develop a palette for the Maine project-don't want to get too excited as it sounds like the roof is coming off and the floor is getting jacked up so we are a long way from rugs and lights. But I keep coming up with this image of Sam Maloof's work and its beautiful take on American furniture and craft. Not that a Maloof piece is in my future but the directness, elegance and rigor...that's my interest.
