The rustic style, approached more often outside rural areas

Somehow, although it sounds paradoxical, in recent years the rustic style has become the new modern style. More and more people – especially those in urban areas, because in rural areas this style has always existed – are looking to arrange their home using furniture and decorations specific to the rustic style.

Interior design specialists recommend the rustic style to all those who want a comfortable and quiet atmosphere in their apartment or house. In addition, the fact that the design is reminiscent of old times and the grandparents' house is a bonus. The rustic style approached in an apartment brings nature closer both through the natural materials used with predilection and with the help of patterns. This style is based on a simple concept, fine lines and natural raw materials found in nature.

Choosing the finishes for arranging a rustic-style apartment
Of course, the stage of choosing the finishes precedes that of choosing the furniture. If you have successfully completed the search of an apartment for sale and you have decided to arrange it in a rustic style, forget about stainless steel, neon, glass mosaic and other types of modern finishes.

For the floor, choose wood or laminate flooring that imitates the floor. Floor tiles are also recommended, but a rustic model, in shades of brick or brown, with a faded, matte and aged look, especially for flooring in the bathroom, kitchen or hallway.
Instead of long-threaded rugs, choose rugs or carpets made of natural fibers, specific to the traditional clothes. You can find them both in fairs with traditional objects and decorations and in large furniture and decoration stores. I was just telling you that the rustic style is popular.

For walls, specialists recommend choosing white or pastel shades of green, pink, blue or yellow. You have a choice. An interesting idea is to cover the walls with wood paneling or even with rustic laminate flooring.

Textiles – an important note when creating a rustic decor
After establishing the finishes and choosing the furniture, comes the stage of choosing the decorative elements. In addition to handcrafted objects made of wood, iron or natural stone with which you can decorate your home, specialists recommend that you do not forget the importance of textiles in a rustic decor.

Blankets, curtains, drapes, rugs, decorative pillows, tablecloths or bedding sets must all be made of wool, cotton or linen. These will further shape the rustic decor of the home, imprinting the warmth and comfort specific to this style of arrangement.
