Trends in decoration of rustic houses
Places where time stands still and are ideal to disconnect from the world with our own. The rustic houses, mostly located in the mountains and in a rural environment, evolve and are transformed towards a modern style that does not abandon the incomparable essence of the countryside, which rejuvenates and brings freshness. The landscape of the rustic houses accompanies, and very much so, but an interior decoration will be key to make us feel even better. Today we talk about rustic home decorating trends




New 'country chic'
The modern rustic tries to eliminate the heaviness of the rustic style of the past, characterized by mud or stone floors and sturdy furniture. Today’s rustic environments, also known as rustic country chic aesthetics, are based on simpler elements than in the past, through clearer shades and lighter spaces, where white takes center stage, without leaving aside other intense chromatic touches, more fossilized, that provide the modern touch.
Modern rustic houses usually use classic furniture that is mixed with other elements such as antique wood floors, wooden beams on the backrests and finishes of stone or brick.
What materials should be used to create a modern rustic atmosphere
Wood and stone together with fabrics such as cotton, silk and leather create atmospheres that evoke the countryside and rural environments. Another element that is used more frequently and that characterizes the rustic is wood, an ideal material to be combined, for example, with woven fabrics that simulate hair.
Wood is, without a doubt, an element that cannot be left out in the modern rustic style of mountain houses: it is used for columns, parquet floors, supports, doors, beams and furniture.
And if it has imperfections, even better, as it will make the space even more beautiful. For its part, the stone provides elegance to the whole. The ceramics and the clay can not be forgotten for this style either. The resulting aesthetic will increase the feeling of warmth of rustic houses, usually located in cool and secluded places.






Latest trends in rustic houses
The rustic mountain houses are usually second homes that are usually used during the ski seasons. Thus, the interior decoration of the shelter has to be cozy and intimate.
-Chromatically, the latest trends in decorating rustic houses play with the contrast of black, the color of natural wood and light shades for textiles, which gives them personality and character. Another option (more shy) is to use warm and cool colors. Although it may seem untrue, they look surprisingly good and provide comfort, style and warmth. On the other hand, if you are thinking of including white tones, it is a very good idea, because they will fill the room with light.
-On the other hand, the spaces of rustic houses are increasingly conceived as open spaces, for example with living rooms that communicate with spacious and ample kitchens.
-The particular combination of textures and finishes and the woodwork, an element that transforms a space into a unique space thanks to its comfort and warmth, are other of the singularities of this style and add value to the room.
