The Rustic Furniture Style is simply the style typical of country life, regardless of geography. Interiors are primitive with exposed walls, wood paneling, rough-hewn beams and stone. Furnishings are simple yet sturdy pieces with little ornamentation with natural or worn finishes.
Here are some of the elements of a Rustic Style Room
Furniture includes rough-hewn pieces of wood, twig, and weathered iron.
Textiles are high-touch flannels and wools in plaids, ticking stripes, florals. The secret is to choose patterns and colors that are full-bodied enough to balance the weighty, rustic furniture.
On the floor, rag, wool, and sisal rugs soften wood floors in medium and dark stains.
Window treatments are textured fabrics, often layered for a warm look.
Accessories reflect nature and an outdoorsy way of life: metal, leather, wood picture frames, birdhouses, sap buckets, and baskets.
