Rustic is one of the decorative styles that achieves a greater sense of warmth. If you like this style, you can decorate your home with its main elements. However, it is not always possible to bring stone walls, wooden beams or a wood-burning fireplace to a modern home. Modern rustic decoration allows you to opt for ingredients of this style, but without looking like you live in a country house.
To do this, you must implement a series of touches that do not clash and do not break the comfortable effect that transmits the rustic style. In this way, you will adapt the appearance of the rooms of your home to the traditional air, but without giving up essential aspects such as technology or the latest in fabrics and materials.
The kitchen is one of the rooms that best supports the rustic. If you want to update it, nothing better than leaving the walls white so that the wood does not eat the environment. Opt for steel lamps and subway tiles.
Integrated spaces that bring together kitchen and living room without partitions are becoming more and more common. The wooden ceiling causes some drowning, so opt for combining white with exposed beams. Dried flowers and trestle tables are perfect.
A small living room that is 100% rustic can be claustrophobic. Swap heavy upholstery for cozier fabrics. Take a look at this table. It has a distressed wood top and white pickled legs.
Another way to make traditional and modern coexist is to alternate the chairs in the dining room. In this case, white Ray & Charles Eames chairs have been combined with wooden chairs taken from a church in a spectacular wooden table.
If you've decided to bring this style to your bedroom and you don't like the idea of stone cladding, give life to your dreams with leather headboards, rugs, blankets and cushions. How about a modern design lamp?
In the bathroom, the light wood vanity unit is a charming rustic detail, as well as the marble countertop. Try gold or copper faucets. A masterful touch is, in an en-suite bedroom, to separate with a barn door.
A wooden board equipped with a shelf and some coat racks will give your foyer the look you're looking for. Use modern accessories such as vintage signs, a recycled fruit crate or luminous words.
If architecture is on your side, timber-framed attics with vertical stone walls are crying out for a twist. What if you place the office at the top of the house? Modernize it with an original stool and a trendy lamp.
