For this new build on a Minnesota horse farm, the design was all about balance between Scandinavian modern and sophisticated country styles. The homeowners are a retired couple who had been inspired by a recent trip to Europe when they met interior designer Emily Pueringer.

“They came back really into Scandinavian modern style,” Pueringer says. “Because this is a horse farm, they were also into an equestrian Ralph Lauren look, meaning plaid patterns and colors like deep green, burgundy and brown. They also told me they loved the feel of Scottish country farmhouses. They wanted sophisticated style, but because this is a farm and they have a large dog, it needed to be practical and durable. At first I thought, ‘How in the world am I going to make all of that work?’”

After building their house in Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley back in the 1990s, this couple found that one of their favorite things about the home was watching the sun set behind the Appalachian Mountains from their bathtub. Decades later, with their children all grown up and moved out, they were ready for a full remodel of the bathroom. A big bathtub placed beneath its corner windows was a nonnegotiable must-have.

Lucky for them, they were close friends with a designer, Jill Jarrett. Jarrett had designed their dream kitchen a few years earlier, so she understood their style and needs. For their primary bath, she created a traditional design that worked well with the style of the rest of the house. More important, she reworked the layout to give them the storage they lacked, a larger shower and, of course, a large tub with sunset views.
