Rustic Style Interior Decoration

The Core Elements of Rustic Decoration

The rustic style reinterprets the natural beauty of pre-industrial village and farm life within a modern frame. Embracing imperfections aesthetically forms the essence of this style.

Material Palette

Raw wood, natural stone, wrought iron, copper and organic textiles are the core materials of the rustic style. The natural textures of these materials add originality to the space.

Colour Palette

Earth tones: brown, terracotta, desert blue instead of navy, olive green and greyish tones make up the rustic colour palette. White or off-white ceilings and walls create a perfect contrast with these tones.

Decorative Elements

Old wooden boxes, old framed mirrors, kilim rugs, hand-worked cushion covers and ceramic vessels are the accessories that complete rustic spaces.

Wall Covering Options

Stone-pattern or brick-look wallpapers, straw-look natural fibre covering or aged-effect paint techniques are ideal for the rustic style.
