Karen Kain’s Cottage
Get coastal, new country style tips as senior design editor Cameron MacNeil tours the charming cottage that he decorated for Karen Kain, artistic director of The National Ballet of Canada, and her actor husband, Ross Petty. See how he incorporated Karen’s antique dining chairs, reclaimed wood finds, and a basic white Ikea kitchen to create a serene and comfortable space that reflects Karen and Ross’s casual aesthetic.
