Blake Lively stars as Lily Bloom, the protagonist in the film adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s book It Ends With Us, which is ruling the box office right now — and it’s not just her acting that’s garnering her attention. The kitchen at her Pound Ridge, New York estate is also buzzing with style and natural elegance. Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, have crafted a space that echoes the chic, organic vibes of celeb spaces like Gisele Bündchen’s, featuring an alluring mix of wood, stone, and marble. The standout element? An exposed brick wall that infuses the room with a cozy, rustic charm.

In a recent Instagram post, the couple showcased their inventive take on the accent wall. Ditching bold colors and complex patterns, they instead opted for a stunning stone brick wall that serves as a textured, eye-catching centerpiece that’s perfectly juxtaposed against a sleek kitchen island. The space is further enhanced by unfinished furniture, soft gray walls, and open cabinets showcasing crisp white dinnerware. 

This approach provides a fresh twist on the traditional all-white walls and standard hardware, demonstrating how natural elements can infuse warmth and personality into any kitchen. (Scroll to the eighth slide below for a better look.)

To bring this look into your own home, start by selecting a feature wall to be your centerpiece. Consider using stone veneer or brick paneling to replicate the textured effect. Complement this with smoother surfaces like a gray kitchen island in Benjamin Moore’s “Revere Pewter.” Introduce rustic charm with unfinished wooden pieces and opt for open shelving or kitchen cabinets like these from Wayfair to display your dinnerware. 

If you want to add another touch of Blake-inspired color and excitement to your space, consider her new, limited-edition floral arrangements. As Lively and Reynolds prove, just a touch of floral charm and rustic natural elements can be the perfect recipe for making any kitchen come full bloom.
