Creating a warm and, at the same time, modern atmosphere in your home? Then choose a modern country interior. In this blog, we would like to give you 5 important tips for transforming the interior of your home into modern and rural.
In a modern and rural interior, wood cannot be missing. Think wooden rafters, a wall covered with wood, a wooden floor or a nice big dining table. In terms of the look of the wood, it may be robust and characteristic. Think a lively pattern, knots and lots of texture. The colour of the wood doesn’t matter. Light wood or burnt black wood. Anything goes with modern and country interiors.
Natural stone is used in both rural and modern interiors. The drawings and fossils that can be seen make each tile unique. This gives your floor, kitchen worktop or bathroom a lively look. In addition, natural stone is very hard and timeless. Examples of natural stone are: limestone (resin), marble, granite and sandstone.
Besides lively wood and hard stone, it is great to choose steel. Think about window frames of steel, a black steel door or a steel frame for the dining table. Steel is increasingly indispensable in modern and country interiors. And a great advantage of steel is that it is easy to combine.
In a country interior, colours are used to give a calm atmosphere to a room. You can create that calm atmosphere by choosing ”earth tones”. Earth tones are colours that are found in nature. Think brown, grey, moss green, beige or taupe.
What cannot be missing in a modern and rural interior are natural fabrics. Fabric in an interior gives warmth. Think of linen, jute, wool or cotton. These fabrics are perfect for curtains, cushions, rugs, chairs or a sofa.
Want to transform your interior into a haven of peace and tranquillity? Then get started with these tips for a modern country interior. Use for example warm earth tones, work with soft and natural fabrics, use natural materials and add steel details.
