A seasonal material study / 034
Adirondack Beaver Moon
Birch, river stone & beeswax.
Pale cabin walls, surrounding wood and the quiet of a November lake become a study in bark, wool and stone.
01 / The palette
Six colors, one atmosphere.
Screen colors are authored interpretations. Material photographs show surface character; they are not calibrated color samples.
02 / Play with the composition
Let the pale walls do the work.
Let the pale ground carry the largest area. Brown felt and moss-grey cloth can then feel warm without weighing down the room. Keep the dark slate to a frame, an edge or a small object.

Sources & interpretation
Beavers prepare for winter by storing woody food underwater near their lodges. Willow, birch, river stone and the first suggestion of ice inform this imagined Adirondack cabin; Beaver Moon is used here as a contemporary seasonal title.
The palette follows the authored material references in this collection. Room, object and material imagery were created for this study. These are imagined settings, with no affiliation to the fictional interface brands.
