It can also be a kitchen in the style of a Russian hut. All these design methods differ from each other, but have a number of common characteristics.
Decorating the kitchen in a rustic style - distinctive features
The first thing that catches your eye is the simplicity and noticeable abundance of typical attributes of the national mentality. For this interior, forged or wicker furniture, large tubs with flowers, bright textiles and traditional shades are characteristic. If we are talking about the design of the kitchen in country country style, there will prevail natural fabrics such as flax and cotton, a cage or a floral pattern. The most frequent color solutions are olive, beige, blue or pale green.
For the ancient Russian cuisine is more characteristic of natural shades of brown, beige or sand. The abundance of wooden furniture and tiled stove. Instead of usual chairs, the advantage is given to benches or stools made of wood.
The decor of the kitchen in the rustic style also depends on the chosen direction, however there are common features of all possible types of design:
- the whole "stuffing" is very simple and functional, things are made without pretentiousness or refined lines;
- materials for furniture and surface finish are mostly natural, the finish itself looks a little rough and careless, any household appliances should be hidden behind drawers or facades;
- a lot of decorative elements that are made of textiles or wood, often it's handmade.
Design of the kitchen in a rustic style
Now let's proceed directly to the design development and filling the room. The key tasks in the design of any room are the selection of furniture, decoration of the floor and walls, as well as finishing touches in the form of decor.
- Kitchen furniture in a rustic style should ideally be made by hand, often it is a "picky hodgepodge" made of several different items. But for modern design it is allowed to select furniture immediately with a set. All tables, stools or chairs, cupboards and sideboards are usually slightly rough, heavy and deliberately aged. The working surface is made of stone, ceramic tile or wood. Sometimes they take quite modern furniture and age it with the help of special techniques with the use of coatings and paints. Well, rattan furniture can fit in .
- The finishing of the floor is quite logical to be presented in the form of wooden boards. In an apartment or when decorating a small kitchen in a rustic style, you can do with a parquet board, and also tile of natural sandy-brown hues harmoniously fit in. The walls are more diverse. Sometimes it's untreated brickwork, decorative plaster, sometimes it's wallpaper with a simple floral ornament. It is better to decorate an apron with a stone or a tile under a mosaic. The ceiling is either simply painted white, or we use classical wooden beams (today you can do polyurethane under a tree).
- Decor for the interior of the kitchen in a rustic style , as a rule, is represented by objects of traditional crafts. These are pottery, woven tracks or tapestries, towels and tablecloths with embroidery. Often the shelves are decorated with ancient generic values in the form of dishes, candlesticks, photographs. In the area of the working area, hang garlands of wicker onions, garlic or pepper.
- Kitchen in the rustic style does not require significant expenses, at times everything you need can be done independently from ordinary furniture. A little imagination and characteristic color techniques, and in your home will become really warm and cozy.
