Features of rustic style
Rural style can be very different: probably no other interior design has so many varieties. The most widespread are three types: French, English (also called country) and Russian. They have their own individual characteristics and differences. The fact is that the rustic style took a very long time to develop, acquired details over the centuries, and in each country absorbed features of local color.
And yet there are common features for all directions, without which interior design in a rustic style will be incomplete:
- unpretentious decoration in natural colors, rough simplicity of the textures and details used: rough plaster, benches and chairs of “clumsy” work;
- widespread use of natural materials - mainly wood, in some details - stone;
- strong, inelegant furniture made from natural materials;
- high detail: the presence of many handmade decorations;
- natural textiles: rugs, napkins, carpets, rugs, blankets;
What are the sashes made of?
The only material from which interior doors in Country style are made is wood. Depending on the price segment in which the structure is presented, it can be used independently or in combination with MDF elements. The following breeds are widely used:
- oak is a reliable, strong, durable material from which stunningly beautiful and authentic canvases are obtained. Oak is characterized by a deep relief texture with distinguishable fibers and an expressive intricate pattern;
- ash, the wood of which is harder than oak. This is a fine-fibered and refined breed that is equally appropriate in “palace” and “peasant” interiors;
- pine, which allows you to create relatively inexpensive but durable doors with their own character. Due to their high moisture and heat resistance, they are ideal for installation in country houses, as well as in baths and saunas.
For those who are looking to buy a Country style door at an affordable price, the combined model is addressed. Its basis is a frame made of coniferous wood. The frame is filled with cardboard honeycombs, which weigh a little but have acceptable insulating properties and decent rigidity. And the frame is sheathed with MDF sheets. The best finishing option in this case is natural veneer of oak, walnut, ash, cherry, etc.
Russian style
Russian style is simple, there are no elaborate details. It is characterized by the widespread use of wood: log cabins, boarded ceilings and walls, wooden utensils and furniture. It is also difficult to imagine the Russian style without painting on plaster, a samovar, and a Russian stove. In the kitchen it is customary to hang dry herbs collected in bunches, bunches of onions and garlic.
When creating such an interior, clay figurines, painted trays, and “grandmother’s” chests will be useful. Only natural fabrics are used: linen, cotton, chintz.
When decorating an interior in a rustic style, it is important to take into account some nuances for each area of the room.
Russian and Scandinavian village idyll
Unlike Provence, Russian country does not imply even the slightest bit of sophistication. It is characterized by simplicity of finishing. The best option here would be walls under a log, stone or brick. You can also use plaster or whitewash.
A mandatory element in Russian style design is a stove, but it is impossible to install it in a children's room. Therefore, an imitation of a whitewashed stove would look appropriate. It will look perfect against a background of solid wood floorboards. Instead of natural wood, you can use wood-look laminate.

When buying furniture, the choice must be made of wooden, wicker or forged items. No polishing! A heavy bed, a wardrobe or chest of drawers made of roughly processed wood, chairs or a bench with simple carvings - these are the main signs of Russian country music. The highlight of the interior will be the chest, which is usually located at the foot of the bed. The child will be happy to store toys, books and other favorite things there.

Typically, in Scandinavian country, many interior items are made of wood. These include bleached plank floors, light wood ceilings, and massive light furniture. If it is not possible to use natural wood, laminate, light-colored wallpaper or paintable plaster will be a good replacement.
A successful addition to the interior will be a fluffy handmade carpet or a homespun carpet in bright colors covering a light laminate. And if you place several pillows nearby, children who like to play on the floor will be delighted.
Country style in the design of children's rooms is a modern and popular trend that will make the room more organic and environmentally friendly. As the child grows, the room can be supplemented with new details. The changes will not put a dent in the parents’ wallet, and the child himself will be able to take part in shaping the decor of his room.
Rustic style in the kitchen
It would be good if the kitchen wall was brick or tiled with imitation brick. Of course, the walls can be painted in light, discreet colors. But it is still better to decorate the kitchen apron with brick - it will add a certain flavor, as can be seen in the photo of the interior in a rustic style.
It is worth choosing wooden furniture - carved or decorated with paintings. It is better to buy built-in equipment so that you can cover it with decorative elements.
If space allows, leave the floor beams exposed. They can be decorated with bunches of herbs, garlic, red pepper.
A rustic kitchen is characterized by an abundance of decor. Everything will come in handy: handmade embroidery, kiln-fired pots, jars, a sideboard with painted porcelain dishes, wicker baskets and vases.
What elements and techniques shape the appearance of products?
Interior doors in Country style are made in shades characteristic of nature. Manufacturers are especially actively turning to light wood tones. If artificial colors are present in their design, it is only as remnants of paint - deliberately dilapidated, worn and partially crumbling. There are no traces of varnish here, although a protective coating is, of course, used in surface treatment.
Established factories invite you to buy doors in Country style, decorated simply, but with taste and originality:
- patina. The aged effect is one of the “tricks” of the direction. It is created using a special dark coating in the recesses of the canvas. Processing of more complex structures involves inflicting “damage”, repeating traces of the activity of grinder bugs, etc.;
- uneven wood elements. It may seem as if the sash has been hastily knocked together from rough boards connected by horizontal slats;
- small, cloudy windows separated by frames.

Country style living room
The rustic style is ideal for the living room - after all, it should be the coziest place in the house. Place upholstered furniture on a wooden floor and hang a carpet on the wall. By the way, the furniture can be either wooden or wicker - there are many options. The lighting should be warm - yellow. Curtains in natural colors will add a special charm to the living room.
Complete the interior with cute crafts, small pillows with embroidered pillowcases, and hang family photos.
The living room should become a gathering place for the whole family to relax and have intimate conversations, so the atmosphere should be created as warm and simple as possible.

Country style is an opponent of modern trends in decoration, which are far from environmentally friendly and natural. The specialists did not violate this strict rule - the walls in the sleeping and study areas were covered with checkered vinyl wallpaper, which visually erased the boundaries and corners, making the room more spacious.
In the recreation area, the walls were decorated with cream non-woven wallpaper without a pattern, which was painted warm beige. The accent of the monochromatic walls was a photo wallpaper with a pattern of “Ancient Castle” and a world map. They brought originality and personality into the room, which is what country music welcomes.
Rustic bathroom
A rustic bathroom design is characterized by the use of materials such as marble, stone and copper. Acceptable colors are white, beige, coffee. They will go well with wooden cabinets and shelves. This is the case when sand-colored sanitary ware and floor tiles with imitation stone look organic.
