Creating a Rustic Living Space

A home well-loved is a home well-designed, and a home well-designed is a home well-lived in. Just as  the comforts of a snow-covered cabin nestled in the wilderness would provide you, so too can the comforts of your home.

Create this rustic, woodsy atmosphere in your own home by following a few of our interior design tips.

Must-Have Accents

You can turn your home into an idyllically rustic retreat by imbuing it with antiquey-looking accents, like a cubby bench which is purposeful and bespoke. Do you have a hunter in the family? You can add flourishes that will show an appreciation for their sport, like a wall-mounted moosehead (made of wood) or hand-made watercolor deer painting that adds to the comfy wilderness feel.

Rustic-Inspired Furniture

The cornerstones of a rustic colour palette are a deep red and its offshoots. A pop of red, like this wooden locker , would complement a room full of sandy beige or amber tones. Soft golds placed in unique places, like in a ceiling chandelier, desk lamp, or centre of a coffee table bring the eye to different corners of a room, and you can style a neutral-coloured living room, such as one fashioned in cool or muddied gray furniture, around many accent colours.

Surprise Touches

The geometry in this pendant-styled lamp would dangle beautifully over your dining room table and provide enough light to create a soothing mood. Add a little bit of quirky flair with a coffee table on wheels that is functional and embodies a true rustic style.
