Today, rustic style is one of the main trends in interior design. And we are talking not only about French Provence, which fits perfectly into the kitchen but also about other directions for any room. It is necessary to pre-organize and plan everything, choose environmentally friendly and safe materials, and determine the key palette and details.
Features of the direction
- Lots of textiles. The more natural fabrics, rugs, pillows, curtains, cute potholders, and other products, the better. Give preferences to manual work. The main thing is that everything should be simple and without frills.
- Natural furniture. Use only wicker & wooden materials and also small forged elements for variety and accents in the rustic style. In this case, the tree should be an array & not chipboard or MDF. You can find rustic furniture for your rustic interior.
- Rough finish. There may be roughness, small cracks, scuffs, and special plaster & finish. You can make a wall under the stone. But such rough details are not welcome in all rooms, and especially in the children's room, we cannot execute them.
- Natural colors. Use natural colors like green, olive, all shades of brown, yellow, orange, blue, beige, white, and other ubiquitous shades. This applies to absolutely all interior items.
- Handmade products. The house in the rustic style is often decorated with the author's products. It can be soft toys, embroidery, knitted fabrics, applications, and painted boards for cutting.
Another crucial difference between the rustic style is openness. Usually, fold all items into shelves, niches, and cabinets and don't use chests of drawers. Everything should be in plain sight and freely available. Collectibles will fit perfectly. But each room, of course, has its specifics.
Kitchen
When recreating the rustic style in the kitchen, the main emphasis is on the walls. It is worth forgetting about the wallpaper. It is better to use a variety of breathable paints. For the apron, you can use bamboo or baked brick. Use only woods to prepare the floor. It should be exclusively a natural array, not an imitation. The modern version is laminate or parquet. As for the ceiling, the use of wood is desirable but not always possible, so the experts suggest whitewashing them all.
In rustic style, the center of the kitchen not only has a massive table but also, an open sideboard with dishes and decor items & various utensils for cooking. Plant and animal motifs should prevail. Instead of paintings, photographs work in the style of decoupage painted boards hung on the walls.
Living room and bedroom
The main reason that makes rustic interior so trendy is these rooms are comfortable, with a lot of light & warmth. With this in mind, interior designers select furniture, decoration, and decor items. For rustic interior, rustic furniture is the best choice. Give preference to woody, pastel colors. French Provence is ideal. The main emphasis in the interior is on textiles: covers, bedspreads, pillowcases, patchwork quilts, carpets, and rugs. Furniture can be painted with no-frills patterns or create the effect of aging. No heavy curtains or massive walls that only clutter the space. Plus you need zoned lighting.
Children's room
Rustic style is very uncommon while making the children's room. But if you want, then keep in mind that all the light and colors need several modifications to execute. For example, rough transitions, roughness, and numerous decorative items will be superfluous. From the rustic style, you can take only natural materials that are hypoallergenic & calm pastel colors. The child needs as much space and fresh air as possible. From the decor - handmade toys and paintings on the walls, framed photos. Rustic style is relevant in other rooms (from the corridor to the bathroom). But consider the level of lighting, the need to use moisture-resistant materials, the size of the room, and other parameters. Without this, it is impossible to create a functional and comfortable interior. Sometimes you get so tired of glamour and pretentiousness that you want a simple village life, sincere and authentic.
The race for individuality, pseudo-self-expression, and a pretentious mask falls on our lives, leaving no room in it for us, the real ones. Therefore, rustic styles in the interior do not lose popularity. Design in the rustic spirit, of course, should be made with all naturalness & proximity to nature.
