Country Style Bedroom

In order to return to the house every evening, it must be comfortable and cozy. Bedroom in the style of "country" will be your favorite place in the apartment - because it is so warm and cute rustic simplicity!

Steel country (country - English. "Village") - is a whole group of styles in the interior. A distinctive feature is rustic aesthetics and simplicity. The room in country style should remind you of your childhood spent in the village with your grandmother. At the beginning of the last century, this style captured the minds of housewives throughout Europe. Therefore, each country has its own "country". In France, this is “Provence”, in Switzerland - “Chalet”. There are styles that imitate American, English, German, and Italian rural styles.

For country characteristic:

• Use of natural materials. Wood, stone, clay - it fits perfectly not only in the style, but also in the concept of "eco-house" or "eco-apartment".
• Natural colors. Brown, sand, olive are the perfect colors for country music. Stylistics are not peculiar bright colors and contrasting combinations.
• Overall modesty finish the lack of brilliant chromed things. All metal in country should be "warm" colors. Brass, copper, cast iron, or steel imitating these materials is used. Ideal shades have become "brandy", "antique gold", etc.
• A large number of textiles. Ideal if it is handmade or imitates it. Embroidery, hemstitch, trimming with sewing or lace are all signs of country style. Characterized by the use of natural materials (linen, cotton) with floral print, checkered, floral designs or images of animals.
• Simple "rustic" dishes (no exquisite sets! ) from ceramics or porcelain, jugs, pots with flowers. Also in the interior must be present decorative things handmade - they give the room a warm and special flavor.

Country music - style on the fan. Modern urban life, with its fast rhythm, does not always make it possible to equip its houses in this way. Today, we often get rid of textiles and decorative tableware, calling it all dust collectors, and strive to make the interior as ascetic and simple as possible.Nevertheless, if there is a hostess in the house, ready to regularly take care of all this beauty, you can safely decorate this style in the kitchen, living room or bedroom in a city apartment. For country housing "country" and does an ideal option.

Whatever the style of the room, it must be habitable. Therefore, in the bedroom there will be a bed, a wardrobe, a chest of drawers or a bedside table for clothes, lighting, decor. Such things as a trellis for flowers, dressing tables, a fireplace will perfectly fit into the country-style - all this can be placed in the bedroom, if space allows and means.

A bed for a country bedroom is better to buy a large and spacious. To fit the style, it must be simple, but good and solid. Ideally, this is a bed made of solid wood. Not carved, but rather, on the contrary, deliberately rough and simple. You can pick up a regular bed with a wrought headboard on forged legs (inexpensive similar options are in Ikea catalogs, for example). It will fit well into a bedroom completely wicker or with wicker elements furniture (for example, from rattan).

The floor and walls for the bedroom of this style should also be decorated in a special way.If funds permit, it is best to lay parquet on the floor. It is eco-friendly, very nice and fits perfectly in style. In a country house, you can leave the wooden floor, smooth and polish it with a neutral paint / varnish. If you want to create something similar in the apartment - consider the option of covering the concrete floor with boards. The most inexpensive option is laminate or linoleum with woodgrain.

Will definitely need a mat. For the country is characterized by the use of skins, but not "pretentious" - bear or tiger, and domestic animals - sheep, cow. A motley braided rug (walkway), mat-type carpet will be appropriate.

Walls can be finished with wood, covered with wallpaper or covered with paint. If in a country house or a simple private house there are initially wooden walls - leave them as they are! Alternatively, you can leave one plank wall, which will be the dominant style in the room. Very good looking bedrooms in private homes, made on the upper floors under the roof. Wooden beams and bevel ceilings create a special rustic aura.

If you decide to paste the walls with wallpaper, they should be light. The perfect picture is a small flower.Well-suited wallpaper with floral ornaments - regular or "for painting." Smooth walls are also a great option. You can stylize them by applying a deliberately large layer of paint or plaster. If you are not ready for such experiments, leave them flat, monotone (not necessarily white-boiled!), But be sure to place a lot of decor on the walls.

If the furnishings and finances allow, you can make a real fireplace in the bedroom. The part of the wall lined with natural stone and the stove with fire will not only warm you in the winter evenings and create a romantic atmosphere, but also highlight your high status. Electrofireplaces with proper design, however, look no worse. It is desirable that the room had a large window. In the style of country music, all the “village” furnishings should be literally flooded with light. The more natural light the better.

Country-bedroom is unthinkable without a large number of textiles. You can give vent to fantasy - bedspreads, pillowcases, capes, valances on the bed, curtains, curtains and tulle, napkins, embroidery in the frame - all this must be in the interior.

To create a village mood, perfect fit:

• Fabrics in large and small flower. The pattern should not be “luxurious” (large roses, golden weaves, etc.), but deliberately simple - wildflowers, modest daisies, bells, daisies.
• Pure unbleached cotton and linen in natural shades. This fabric in colors from milky to grayish brown. They are very pleasant to the eye and perfectly complement the furniture made of wood.
• Fabric in a cage. Best of all this pattern looks in the decoration of the kitchen, but if you want to add a bedroom to them, it is best to complement it with a floral print in the same range. For example, the bedspread on the bed and the curtains are white in a red flower, and the valance on the bed and pelmet is in a small red and white cage.
• Textiles in peas. Large looks fun, small - gently and touching. In order not to overdo it, it must also be combined with either plain fabrics or floral flowers.

• Patchwork bedspreads and pillows. Any textile, made in the technique of "patchwork", will look great.
• Rural motifs, pastoral. In the country-style, Dutch mills look great on fabrics, cute shepherds, grazing horses and other scenes of country life.
• Animal print. Cute (not cartoony!) Kittens, mice, and best of all - birds or butterflies on branches or in flowers.
• Lace, sewing, knitted fabric, weaving, knitted tulle - All this is perfect for country bedroom.

The windows in rustic style are decorated with curtains. That is, it is not too long two curtains, which are closed and opened or fastened to hooks in the walls by holders to form a half-open-half-closed window.

A competent designer will always offer to make a lambrequin - the simplest one, without draperies, but with a lot of assemblies. If the window is not too large, you can make two short curtains from the middle of the window to its bottom, and close the upper part with a lambrequin.

The pattern, which is on the lambrequin or curtains, must be supported in the interior - these can be decorative pillows on the bed, a valance, a blanket (a more interesting variant is its inner side, which can be slightly bent back).You can achieve a breathtaking effect, if the same fabric to decorate lampshades table lamps or floor lamp.

As a decor, which in the country bedroom should be a lot, flowers are best suited, of course. Pick up brightly flowering plants in pots. In a country house you can arrange the vases and fill them with fresh flowers. Pots for plants can be made using decoupage technique, “aged” them or covered with plain dim paint.

There must be a clock on the wall. Best of all - old or, again, aged. Watch with roman numerals and intricate metal hands look good. The mirror on the wall must be in an intricate forged frame. Perfect stand-alone large oval mirror on the "leg", in which you can see yourself from head to toe. Decorative baskets or boxes, upholstered in fabric, will be an excellent container for trifles and will please the eye.

Both for a country house and for a bedroom in an apartment, you can safely use real retro gizmos from the houses of our grandmothers - chests, lari, low chairs with ottomans. You may have to “bring it to life” a little - tint it, wash it, but it is these very things that will create the desired effect. Everything that you or your friends can do with their hands can be safely used in interior decoration. Oil paintings (as an option - “paintings by numbers”), batik, embroidery - all this can be attributed to a framing workshop, framed and hung on the walls.

Country style is perfect for those who are tired of the minimalism of modern interiors. In such a room you can really relax and forget after a hard day's work. Of course, creating a genuine country interior in a city apartment will not be easy, but using modern materials you can succeed.

Wooden panels, laminate flooring, high-quality textiles, appropriate bedroom furniture, electric fire, competent wall decoration - all this will help to get closer to the village aesthetics even for a resident of a conventional high-rise building.How to harmoniously arrange a bedroom in the style of "Country", see the following video.
