Modern Rustic

Time To Style Up Your Home
Add a touch of character with a mix of rustic & contemporary designs

La Maison Chic

Stunning interiors in rustic style are a fusion of modern comfort with the beauty of natural simple designs. The main feature of Rustic Style Interiors is the use of natural materials – environmentally friendly simple furniture with rough finishes and a touch of some rural brutality. Some people might think that this kind of furniture is only suitable for a country house, and would not fit into the town house or city apartment’s space. We at La Maison Chic are big fans of rustic style and believe that natural objects combined with linen textiles can make any home welcoming – you just need to find the perfect balance. There are two ways of building layout. First - rough wooden furniture pieces can be “softened” by adding decorative accessories - exquisite china and ceramics, flowers, shabby bird cages, linen soft furnishings and wall art. Second - if you find the interior too soft and elegant you can add rough rustic elements such as wooden decorations, wood-beamed ceilings, wooden headboards or wooden chandeliers to reach an authentic look.
The main element of this style is wood and it is very important to pick the right finish. The best choice is dark brown or light brown wood finish, with traces of rough manual processes; ideally if you made or buy furniture from previously used wood and boards. Finish shouldn’t be too smooth - obvious bumps, cracks, scratches, damage can only add character. The most common trees used are oak, pine and beech.
Rustic style gives great freedom in interpretation but does not tolerate shiny and glossy surfaces, elegant carvings, geometric patterns, bright colours or a large variety of colours for one area.
We are very proud to introduce new range of rustic designs for your home: Reclaimed Pine Glazed Bookcase, Reclaimed Pine Display, Reclaimed Pine Drum Top Dining Table, Old Pine Chest and Coffee Table Made From Old Pine. Old reclaimed pine is used for the whole range, all items look very authentic and are inspired by nature.
Dark, aged metal parts, accessories and forging used together with wood are also common for the style. Bronze, brass, cast iron and nickel silver are suitable as well. We have a wide selecting of dining tables made from wood & metal: Dining Table With Recycled Elm Top, Recycled Elm Dining Table, Old Pine Table With Zinc Top, Industrial Dining Table With Iron Legs.
