A rustic living room is an absolute hit!
A rustic living room is an absolute hit, and here's how you can create it!
Rough wooden beams, stone walls, slightly worn (intentionally we won't say shabby) decor... these are all things that make a rustic interior. Why? Well, simply because the rural environment most of all associates us with coziness, informal atmosphere, comfort, but also nature. Even if you don't want a home that looks like some mountain cabin out of a catalog, you can still add lots of different elements to get that "downtown" vibe. When it comes to furnishing the interior, small but selected rustic touches can easily transform your living space, especially the favorite place of most householders - the living room. Here's how:
Embrace the warmth of wood
Another trademark when it comes to most rustic rooms is that everything from the walls to the ceiling is covered with wood. Even when it comes to furnishing modern apartments or houses, just a small touch of wood (even in the form of decorative ornaments) is ideal for creating a subtle rustic atmosphere. Heavy wooden floors are also one of the simpler ways to achieve this look without changing too much of the rest of the room, and a wood-paneled wall can also serve this purpose.
Exposed wooden beams and stone
It is clear to us that wood is the absolute winner when it comes to rustic, but high on the list of materials used for these purposes is stone, which is an indispensable part of living rooms with this theme. In combination with wood, the stone is really a hit. And if you belong to that group of lucky people who have a living room with wooden beams - we advise you to leave them open in order to get the maximum visual effect.

Carpets made of artificial fur and cowhide
Unlike wooden walls and beams, as well as stone walls and fireplaces, this part of the story easily fits into any space, does not require much effort and is quite effective. Therefore, replace the existing carpet with an option like this, especially if your household budget does not leave much room for the implementation of all the previous steps.
Allow the room to "red"
The rustic style is a great way to introduce a slightly more aggressive color into the living room, and one shade that, as if by some unwritten rule, is found in the most beautiful rustic rooms is red. You are free to experiment in every possible way, so add red color in the form of cushions on the sofa, or try an elegant pastel variant in the form of bedspreads, curtains, or decorations.
