There's a classic, understated elegance to rustic decor. Often synonymous with farmhouse decor, these rooms are homey and welcoming, with cozy paint colors that make for a cabin-like warmth. The creativity is kicked up a notch in rustic kitchens, where we see unique light fixtures, reclaimed objects, and open shelving galore to display collected-over-time treasures. Rustic bathroom decorating ideas, too, often include vintage-inspired fixtures (think sinks, clawfoot tubs, and faucets).
All of these stunning rustic ideas show up in the bedroom as well, where weathered wood furniture and humble fabrics like grain sack on throw pillows feel right at home against a backdrop of shiplap (be gone, drywall!) and warm hardwood floors. (Every homeowner tackling a reno has their fingers crossed that salvageable wood floors are hiding under that '80s carpet!)
A mostly neutral palette keeps the mood calm in rustic bedrooms, and an overall unfussy sensibility prevails—until it doesn't. There are no hard-and-fast rules. Rustic decorating can go in any direction, from the more primitive to traditional to modern (and in most cases, a combination of these). For example, a clean-lined painted bed mingles with mismatched nightstands. Reclaimed wood ceiling beams and rough, exposed stone walls live happily with soft, traditional floral fabrics. This anything-goes approach is perhaps why rustic decorating is trending—and here to stay for good.

Rustic Retreat
The wood-slat walls and exposed ceiling in this master bedroom get an extra dose of humbleness with a chippy bedside table and weathered bed frame. Simple yet comfortable bedding and a fluffy throw rug bring a layer of softness to the room.

White Done Right
Floor-to-ceiling white could read cold and sterile, but add a sculptural iron bed, an old wooden hamper and narrow antique piece as bedside tables, along with neutral-toned, luxurious linens, and the otherwise primitive space becomes downright soothing.
Fun fact: The folk art canvas above the bed was created by women who were learning how to sew.

Reclaimed Castle
When two Texas homeowners, who both happen to be antiques dealers, built a house from the ground up with reclaimed wood, iron, and tin materials, the result is a one-of-a-kind farmhouse with "washed and worn rustic elegance." In this sizable master suite, secondhand materials, as well as furniture and accessories, take center stage.

Rustic Window Frames
Thick, raw wood window trim brings a rustic warmth to this loft space with crisp, white walls and painted furniture, including a pair of Jenny Lind bed frames and a shared chest. Striped wood blankets, faux bois bolster pillows, and a paint-by-number of an outdoorsy scene lend a camping vibe to the room.

Lakeside Rustic
Wide-set paneled walls painted a crisp white in the master bedroom recall the style often found in old Lake Michigan cottages. Leaving wall-joists exposed was a historic look that originated out of necessity (as an inexpensive way to cover wall seams) that is now favored as an architectural detail.
A wooden four-poster bed with simple lines centered on the wall gives the room symmetry along with matching lamps and a pair of framed silhouettes, while mismatched bedside tables lend a less formal, laid-back vibe.

Rustic Richness
This bedroom is rich with assorted textures, from the grasscloth-covered walls to the rush headboard. The pattern play here is strong with classic checked curtains, striped bedding, and piles of pillows in whimsical prints, all pulled together with a soothing color palette.

Coastal Bedroom Rustic Style
In this Martha's Vineyard guest room, a bamboo headboard, jute rug, and blue and green accessories give a nod to the seaside location. Horizontal paneled walls and old ceiling beams get a coat of crisp white for a light and airy feel and offer a nice contrast to the weathered chair and earthy bed materials.

Pine Dreams
Wide-plank floors and walls clad in pine cut at a local Georgia sawmill wrap this upstairs sleeping loft like a warm hug. Layered bedding brings color, pattern, and softness to the space. The bed frames are built directly into the wall.

Campy and Cozy
It doesn't get more rustic than walls made from stone quarried on the property, as seen in this circa 1930s farmhouse. Upholstering the ceiling in landscape-grade burlap softens the hard edges while maintaining a rustic, campy feel. Cots outfitted with wool throws and a pair of pillows make for a comfy napping spot.

Modern Rustic
Industrial touches like an antique engineer light repurposed as bedside lighting and a funky Serge Mouille chandelier mix with more rustic pieces like an old wood-framed mirror, framed vintage artwork, and a cowhide rug. A contrasting gray paint highlights the architectural details. Dark windows and door frames bring a modern, sleek touch to the space.

Rustic Warmth
Honey-colored wood floors, furniture (the nightstand and antique pine armoire), and hefty exposed rafters bring a lovely rustic warmth to this otherwise white space. A single bulb light fixture (strung up with thick rope instead of a cord) and an oversize basket pendant bring an extra layer of texture.

Traditional Rustic
Rustic doesn't always mean a muted palette. In this Colorado farmhouse bedroom, a colorful and traditional palette of red, white, and blue rules, from the bedding to the Americana rug. A 19th-century chandelier hangs over a bed with the headboard crafted from a reclaimed church pew. The room is wrapped in rustic shiplap walls painted a crisp, clean white.

Humble Fabrics
In this cottage-style sleeping loft, humble fabrics (red-and-white quilt, grainsacks used to make pillows, linen-covered headboard), a vintage sign found at a tag sale, and narrow bedside tables squeeze in comfortably for a cozy guest quarters. Paneled wood in imperfect varying widths, railings, and exposed ceiling beams are all painted a fresh white.

Old-Fashioned Rustic
An antique spool bed and side tables, a braided rug layered on wide plank floors, and assorted artwork (including a framed rooster hook rug) are reminiscent of Grandmother's guest room. Stained wood window trim and hardy wide plank hardwood floors create a warm backdrop for the room.

Sweet Rustic
Grain-sack pillows pair beautifully with a chippy antique iron bed and distressed bedside chest for a sweet arrangement. The grand glass-sided armoire used for linen storage keeps this guest room from feeling too precious.

Old-Fashioned Charms
Horizontal V-groove walls left unpainted and a classic blue-and-white patchwork quilt reinforce this home’s old-fashioned, rustic charms. The walls are left bare, save for the impressive collection of landscape artwork and photographs.

Neutral Oasis
A simple iron bed frame and soft linens in calming neutral tones bring a refined rusticity to this bedroom. Useful solid wood farm benches ground the space. Framed leaf silhouettes above the bed bring the outside in, and a collection of hand mirrors tied and hung with sweet ribbons reflects natural light from the bare windows.

Salvage Superstar
This creative guesthouse is made almost completely of architectural salvage! Reclaimed beadboard gets a second life after it’s sealed with Varathane polyurethane sealant to protect guests from potential lead paint. The wrought-iron bed looks right at home among the repurposed paneled walls, tin ceiling, and windows (yes, the windows too!).

Rustic, Refined
This room is a great example of rustic living at its most sophisticated. Natural-colored grasscloth covers the walls while soft traditional curtains soften the space. Stained wood chests as bedside tables and a pair of rush stools at the foot of the painted four-poster bed offers a harmonious mix of materials and keeps things from going too matchy-matchy.

Floral Oasis
Walls clad in lattice from the hardware store and painted a deep shade of green add architectural interest to typical drywall for a unique bring-the-outside-in approach to decorating. Handmade paper florals provide a feminine touch against the more masculine wall color.

Rustic Signage
There's just something about an old sign that gives a space loads of instant personality. Here, the X-pattern on new, rustic-looking barn doors mimics a vintage railroad crossing sign that hangs over the head as a real statement piece.

Lakeside Rustic
This cabin-, porch-like bedroom is outfitted with a rusty red shingled walls for a fun, campy feel. A pair of oars above the bed, blue-and-white-striped rug, and the nautical light fixture are a nod to the lakeside setting.

Woodland Walls
Wrapped in woodland wallpaper, this bedroom evokes the feeling of sleeping in a forest (but a very chic one without the threat of critters!). Natural window shades and a rustic, wooden bed frame add rich texture to the cozy space.

10 ways to create a modern rustic look |
(Image credit: Future)
Rustic bedroom ideas are currently having a moment in the interior design spotlight – and for good reason. This interior decor trend strikes the perfect balance between cozy and homespun; like an escape to the countryside without leaving the city limits.
Hoping to put some modern rustic ideas to work in your own bedroom? We've selected the essential aspects of rustic decor – these practical, expert-approved tips and ideas will ensure your home reflects the chic and modern aesthetic while still maintaining a warm, snug and understated appeal.
Rustic bedroom ideas
Whether you live in a rural home – or just love the rustic look – your bedroom ideas are the soothing heart of your decorating scheme. Here's how to introduce rustic bedroom ideas to your space with ease.
1. Layer texture in a rustic bedroom
(Image credit: Dan Duchars)
If you're wondering how to design a bedroom with rustic charm the key is to layer up plenty of natural and tactile materials. This is especially important in white bedroom ideas – and neutral and monochrome schemes – which can run the risk of feeling flat and lifeless. Not only do layers of texture add visual interest they also help create a cozy space perfect for retreating to at the end of a hard day.
For instant texture, try factoring adding tactile throws in natural fibres such as cotton velvet, shaggy sheepskin and chunky weaves. Alternatively, a muted deep pile carpet makes a great textural foundation to a rustic bedroom which will bring warmth and comfort underfoot, too.
‘A neutral color palette is best suited to rooms you spend a lot of time in, such as in a romantic bedroom, where relaxing tones are key to being happier at home,’ says Lisa Conway, residential marketing manager at Brintons . ‘The texture of the bedroom carpet is key to preventing a neutral scheme from looking dull. A soft woven wool carpet, layered with accessories in cashmere, mohair and linen will all work to soften a look and create an inviting scheme.’
2. Make a feature of rustic beams
(Image credit: Amara)
If you are lucky enough to have a period home with rustic original beams, then why not embrace them as part of your traditional bedroom ideas?
'Beautiful architectural features are what give period homes their unique character so should be persevered and highlighted within interior design wherever possible,' says Melanie Griffiths, editor of Period Living magazine.
Make these features the star of the show by keeping to a muted bedroom wall decor and bedroom color scheme, as demonstrated in this space by Amara. To finish the look complement the beautiful weathered patina of the beams and add interest with layers of textural throws, from chunky cable knit designs to herringbone weaves.
3. Consider lighting
(Image credit: Oka)
Rustic bedroom ideas often place an emphasis on hard floors and exposed walls, however, this look can leave rooms feeling cold – factoring in bedroom lighting ideas is important to make sure the space has a cozy, inviting atmosphere. Not only will these woven table lamps bring instant warmth, the rattan bases enhance the rustic feel of the space, while their spice-colored fabric shades will bring the warmth of exotic climes.
‘When it comes to drawing inspiration for texture and color, there's no better place to look than the outside world. This cottage is surrounded by countryside, so we wanted to complement its light and breezy atmosphere with nature-led accessories,’ says Sue Jones, creative director and co-founder at Oka .
‘The starting point was the rattan table lamps; their hand-woven texture creates an inviting space with that all-important rustic touch. Comfort in a bedroom is paramount, so we layered the bed with cozy throws and added dashes of color with patterned cushions and rich red lampshades, which work beautifully to tie the scheme together and bring a freshness to the space. ’

Stone masonry, solid wood floors and exposed timber rafters make beautiful country bedroom ideas but it's important to balance the them with softer elements in a bedroom to make the space conducive to relaxation and sleep. A luxurious upholstered bed frame is a brilliant way to achieve this look.
Regally poised with elegant sweeping curves this Rosemoor king-size bed from Naturalmat for Homes & Gardens makes a striking accent piece for a luxury bedroom idea. Handmade in Devon and padded with layers of locally sourced organic lambswool for supreme comfort, the design comes in an array of natural fibre fabrics – try a pastel duck egg shade for a restful scheme.
'Rustic settings can make beautiful bedrooms but if you don't introduce a sense of comfort you may end up with a lingering feeling you are sleeping in a barn,' explains Mark Tremlett, Naturalmat founder. 'Choose a generously filled upholstered bed to insulate and create a style contrast with the bare walls. Upholstery and natural fillings are also good for acoustics and work well in rustic or industrial settings without carpet or drapes.'
5. Add in reclaimed and vintage pieces
(Image credit: Unique Home Stays)
Imbued with history and time-warn patinas, antique furniture and fixtures and fittings made from reclaimed materials are a brilliant way to inject character into rustic bedrooms. Consider paneling a wall in vintage timbers or make a statement with an ornate carved wooden bed as demonstrated in this space.
Old picnic hampers, tea chests and luggage can be re-purposed to make great storage solutions. In this rustic space, old shoe lasts have been adapted into wall light fittings, which make for a playful guest bedroom idea.
6. Choose a rustic woven rug

White-painted floorboards are guaranteed to make dark bedrooms feel brighter, more spacious and are a lovely bedroom flooring idea, however, they can leave spaces feeling stark and bare. For an easy layer of texture try adding in a rug woven from natural materials such as jute which will also provide a soft touch underfoot when you step out of bed.
When designing a rustic bedroom, 'choose pieces that will add character and gentle texture, says Mark Winstanley of The White Company . 'I love natural materials and finishes such as timber and stone or softer elements such as sisal, sheepskin and wool.'
7. Try shiplap panelling

Guaranteed to bring a rustic look to your bedroom, shiplap paneling can be a great way of adding texture and interest into a small bedroom. Used on a single wall it can help draw your eye distracting from the size of the space, plus, the vertical lines can accentuate the height, too – to keep the space feeling bright and airy yet cozy and cocooning choose a warm, off-white shade.
It can often be hard to find bedroom storage ideas for small bedrooms, so why not consider utilizing the space under the bed and filling it with large woven storage baskets?
8.
Invest in linen bedding(Image credit: Steph Gowland/Bedfolk)
Bedding made from textural linen makes a beautiful finishing touch for a rustic bedroom. Displaying an elegant and relaxed feel, this bedding beautifully complements the varied grain of natural timber plus has plenty of practical and environmental benefits, too. Made from flax fibres, linen bedding is more breathable than synthetic materials which helps regulate body temperature whilst sleeping.
9. Introduce earhty tones

Decorating with neutrals are a classic choice for rustic bedrooms as they help focus attention on the character and patina of the surfaces within a space. While neutrals can bring an overall feeling of calm, experimenting with colorful bedroom ideas can be effective, too, as this space proves.
Used over the bottom half of this wall panelling, Little Greene's Tuscan Red, helps to create a grounding and cocooning atmosphere in this space. With its bare floorboards and angular panelling, this space could run the risk of feeling cold, but the injection of a warm earthy pigment brings instant coziness to the room without overpowering the space.
'I love a natural palette to create a comforting, soothing scheme, use warmer, natural shades to create focal points through color blocking, to frame contrasting colors, or to zone a space by using interesting color proportions,' says Ruth Mottershead, creative director Little Greene. 'The warmth of ‘Tuscan red’ balanced with the ‘French Grey’ feels incredibly soothing here and works wonderfully with the addition of bare wood finishes and natural linen.'
10. Add a textural wallpaper

Bedroom wallpaper ideas are a brilliant way to instantly change the look and feel of a space. Rustic bedrooms are all about texture, so rather than opt for a wallpaper with a bold print which can be hard to live with, why not take a pared-back approach with a rustic wallcovering such as this Twine design from Arte which mimics natural woven fibres in a Cameo colorway.
What is a rustic bedroom?
The key design elements for a modern rustic bedroom are farmhouse-style furniture, neutral color palettes and textured pieces. If you are after a more classic feel, and want to enhance the rustic aesthetic, do consider wood flooring or wood beams on the ceilings. If you live in a relatively modern home, keep furnishings unfussy and opt for one or two key pieces –such as a sisal rug, rattan headboard or decorative wall sconces to further enhance a rustic bedroom.

21 rustic bedroom interior - photos and descriptions
Surely, many will agree that the bedroom is one of the important rooms in the house. After all, it is here that you meet a new day, and also see off the outgoing one. In this room you relax, indulge in laziness and bliss, dream, make plans for the future. Therefore, its design should be approached especially seriously and carefully.
Today, architects offer a huge number of bedroom design options, and choosing the most acceptable and spectacular one is not difficult. But if you are bored with modern interiors, where everything is ordered and a bit picturesque, and you want something extraordinary, original, this topic will help you with this.
Below you can see and appreciate 21 delightful rustic room design ideas that, along with comfort, fill the room with coziness, a sense of security and stability, as well as closeness to nature, which is especially lacking for residents of megacities.
It should also be noted that the considered options will look especially good in country houses, mountain chalets, rooms equipped in the attic space, and will certainly help to find the answer to the question of how to make the bedroom cozy.
Interiors that give warmth and comfort on long winter evenings
As you probably already know, country style is distinguished by the use of natural materials such as wood, stone, cotton, linen, the use of natural colors and simple, sometimes even somewhat rough configurations.
But therein lies the special charm of this design. In such rooms, an atmosphere of friendliness always reigns, and time seems to freeze in them, allowing you to gain strength, escape from all problems and get undoubted pleasure from being in them.
Dan Joseph Architects is a prime example of this. As you can see, the authors not only did not mask the massive beams, but deliberately focused on them with the help of untreated surfaces of walls and furniture, as well as the original racks of the amazing canopy.
Bouquets with sunflowers look very touching in this wooden space, resembling rays of the sun that managed to break through the density of crowns and trunks. And as a detail that enlivens the interior and adds homely warmth to it, the designers chose a woolen carpet with a geometric pattern that is quite bright and suitable for many styles of bedroom design. And doesn’t this option remind you of the house of a forest fairy or an elf?
It should be noted that this luxurious Headwaters Camp Cabin villa was not only the epitome of high craftsmanship, but also a convincing proof of the possibility of obtaining an energy efficient building without the use of additional materials.
By the way, it is located in one of the most beautiful places in Montana, Big Sky Ski Resort. And this project managed to get the title of "Most Responsible" residence of the year.
Look how noble a rustic bedroom can look. The light and cozy room, decorated in creamy brown colors, attracts the eye with its elegance and naturalness. Everything here is also made of natural materials, but with the use of elegant forms.
This bedroom has a lot of amazing details that photographer Audrey Hall managed to capture. This is an original author's table, on which a lamp rises on a beautiful support, and an equally attractive stool made from a tree trunk, and a fluffy fur carpet and a plaid, and the figures of horses in the picture and the tabletop, rushing towards each other.
It is also impossible not to notice how subtly the designers managed to link each item, creating a complete and integral image, in which momentum and infinity are intertwined.
Rustic sophistication and charm
Reid Smith Architects & Teton Heritage Builders offer equally interesting bedroom design ideas. For example, their design of the rooms at the Lower Foxtail Residence, which can be seen in the portfolio of LC2 Design Services, is the epitome of a powerful union of fashion trends and calm country style.
This is clearly expressed through striking organic details such as the watercolor pattern on the carpet and painting, the luxurious combination of cool and warm shades, well-finished wood paneling and stone cladding with amazing texture, as well as individual pieces of furniture, among which you can notice modern configurations, and deliberately rough, but not devoid of attractiveness designer hand-made forms.
Did you know that even an ordinary room with white walls and ceilings and unremarkable furniture can be easily decorated in a hospitable rustic style? Comfort and attractiveness in this case are created with the help of expressive details typical for such interiors.
See how this is brought to life in the Mill Valley Mansion's modern bedroom interior, designed by Artistic Designs for Living. Fluffy pillows and original suede throw give the bed an attractive, untouched look.
The walls of this small room are lavishly decorated with paintings, the main theme of which is, of course, landscapes. No less impressive is the original chandelier in the form of branched horns, which illuminates this cozy space from above in the evening, and Roman blinds, chosen to match the main elements.
The work of designer Luis Jauregui, who created a bedroom for children, looks very delightful. Apparently, this is why the neutral palette is diluted with bright coral, blue, yellow shades, which gives the interior playfulness and lightness.
There are also a lot of original details in the room, such as the signed chest of drawers that make it easy for the child to find the right items, educational paintings on the walls and a huge closet framing the window, which will be filled with different things as the owner grows up: first with toys, then with textbooks, educational games, favorite books.
Modern rustic style
As a staple of the country, wood is very popular both as a base material for furniture and as a natural finish. With it, you can completely veneer the internal structures in the room, and this option can often be found in many country mansions or country houses.
To prevent the room from looking too monotonous, you can try to vary the shades (as you know, each breed has its own color and texture), as well as replace some of the linear configurations with more spectacular ones.
It should be noted that a modern rustic bedroom design can be greatly enriched with built-in furniture in the same beautiful wood as used for decoration, for example, in the house project in Amenia, New York, from Allan shop.
Do you want to surprise your guests not only with a warm welcome, but also with individuality? Decorate their room in an original way, but no less luxurious than the rest of the rooms in the house.
Designers from Peace Design have proposed a rather interesting option that allows you to plunge into the atmosphere of the Middle Ages. This similarity was ensured not only by the plank ceiling and furniture, but also by a massive metal chandelier of vintage configuration, suspended in the center of the bedroom.
Enhances the effect of antiquity carved armchair of amazing beauty and decor in the form of horns over the head of the bed. And natural shades and fresh flowers fill the space with peace and tranquility.
In the archive of works by the same company (Peace Design) there is an even more amazing project, which can be called royally luxurious. Delightful dark wood designs, leather upholstery sofas, silk curtains and bedding emphasize the comfort of natural materials and reflect the romantic side of the design. In such a room, which inspires confidence and a sense of security, you can not only have a good rest from everyday affairs, but also get a lot of unforgettable impressions.
Harmonious combination of velveteen details and rustic elements
As you probably already noticed, country is a sure option when you want to create an “antique” interior, the demand for which is gradually increasing. Of course, a bedroom in a modern style is elegant, comfortable and cozy, but how can it compare with the charm of emphatically rough beams, the romance and luxury of lush canopies, amazing carved furniture, amazing bronze chandeliers on long suspensions?
See how colorful the room looks, presented in the photo of Audrey Hall, who managed to capture not only all the interesting details, but also convey a special lush atmosphere created by the skillful hands of the architects and enhanced by chic blue velvet accents. Its noble hue casts silver under the influence of sunlight and is filled with depth and mystery in the light of lamps or candles.
If you're a fan of this style, you'll love the Lower Foxtail Residence bedroom design by Teton Heritage Builders. You can see how gracefully the architects have adapted the combination of wood and rough stone to the requirements of modern design, creating a highly comfortable and delightful space.
Simplicity and recycled wood for luxury bedrooms
Reclaimed Space's La Arboleda mansion bedroom design sets itself apart from the rest by using recycled materials to create a rustic feel.
Exquisite wall and ceiling finishes made from boards from old crates, sheds and even demolished houses. The architects not only gave strong wood a second life, but also offered a fairly economical and efficient option for interior design.
In addition, they decided not to burden the space with unnecessary objects and complex shapes, as a result of which an updated minimalist version of country music appeared.
Rustic color accents
A beautiful bedroom interior doesn't have to be boring and monotonous. And this can be achieved by carefully adding bright colors to the space (we must not forget about moderation, otherwise you can get a ridiculous and tastelessly decorated room from an elegant room).
It must be said right away that there are no restrictions on the choice of desired shades: even the most daring colors can look harmoniously with wooden and stone structures.
For example, the site Cavender Diary presented a project for a luxurious room in a rustic style. The interior was rich in details and was complemented by chic black and red accents in the form of a bedspread, carpet and pillows.
Country-style bedroom for a luxury chalet
As noted above, this style is great for decorating a chalet. And is it really possible to imagine a house built or finished with the use of plastic and other modern materials based on hydrocarbon compounds, among the majestic and beautiful mountains?
The delightful ski chalet Chalet le Petit Chateau in Courchevel is an example of the harmonious interaction of architectural forms with the environment. Its beige and white interiors are a continuation of the picturesque snow-capped peaks, while the light aroma and the unique pattern of light wood provide tired owners with the cosiness and tranquility they need.
As you can see, the designers have added blue and blue accents to the rooms, which probably symbolize the deep sky or crystal clear and even ringing air.
And now you are invited to see the luxury bedroom version of the Swiss chalet Chalet Zermatt Peak. What distinguishes it from previous projects is the richness of textures and materials used, stunning panoramic glazing and a sense of superiority and success radiated by almost every object.
Delightful simplicity
Luxurious interiors do not have to be full of spectacular and noticeable details. After all, true beauty is usually not catchy. An example of this is the beautiful design of the bedroom in Chalet Maria, located in Courchevel.
At first glance, this room is unremarkable: plenty of wood, comfortable furniture, natural fabrics. But take a closer look. The wardrobe and shelves at the head of the bed can be called a masterpiece of carpentry art. Carved doors, intricate arches have become a delicate decoration of the room. Aren't three types of pillowcases a cause for admiration?
Rustic elements for modern bedrooms
You can keep the splendor of the country in a modern interior. In this case, in the design of the room, it will be possible to note the features of both directions, the symbiosis of which, as a rule, gives amazing results, forcing you to take a fresh look at the possibilities of design.
Luxurious layouts, clear lines, modern furniture will be favorably emphasized against the background of wooden walls and ceilings, adding to the charm of natural beauty and home comfort.
Take a look at the stunning bedroom at Chalet Grande Cerf, where modern minimalism and rustic style merge into a harmonious whole. The indisputable advantage of this design is the possibility of modifying it: repainting the designs, you will get a charming Provence, cladding with glossy panels, you can aim at high-tech.
Country for non-standard children's rooms
It is generally accepted that a children's room should be spacious, bright and contain a rich color scheme. In every little individual there is a strong spirit of a tireless explorer, dreamer and dreamer.
Remember that period when you were little. Surely, you built a kind of huts under the dining table, loved to climb trees and attics. So why not try to embody such ideas in the design of the nursery? And the same country will help in this.
A similar project was realized under the roof of the restored old chalet Chalet Bibendum. Wooden structures, exposed beams, a glass end and skylights create a unique atmosphere of adventure.
Luxurious views from above, adorable décor with mottled calf pillows and plush bedspreads will delight your children. And it is unlikely that in the next few years they will want to part with this uncomplicated, but nice room.
Design Associates Interiors' next beautiful contemporary bedroom invites you into a fairy forest. Fascinating details in the form of original legs and headboards made of birch trunks and branches, a stunning wall resembling a thick thicket and softly illuminated by a charming lamp, have formed the image of a cozy house for forest dwellers, whose role, of course, will be played by small family members. At the same time, the room did not lose its functionality and did not look frivolous.
The nursery designed by Metropole Architects for the SGNW House winter residence in South Africa is also delightful. Of course, this ethnic style cannot be called exclusively rustic, but we can say that this is its adapted version for the proposed conditions.
Every detail in this room attracts attention. First of all, the wall lined with saw cuts of trees and which has become an undoubted decoration of the house admires. It is impossible not to note the luxurious palette in the design: various shades of blue are present on the walls, and in the patterned carpet, and the colors of the striped pillows, and amazing gradient-colored blankets; appetizing peach light spills over the ceiling in the evening, while beige-brown hues act as the main backdrop for this splendor.
The review is completed by a room equipped under the attic of the Chalet Cyanella in Megeve (French Alps) and designed for four children. In addition to the undeniable advantages of rustic style, here you can get new ideas on how to decorate the interior in the bedroom.
In particular, it is worth noting the competent use of space: despite the inconvenient variable height of the floor, the designers managed to design the furniture in such a way that it began to repeat the slope with its configurations.
See how the bunk bed transitions seamlessly into regular sleeping quarters. And even the beams, which usually create additional difficulties for the design, have been used, they have become the basis for fixing lamps. The authors of this amazing room are architects from Bo Design, who tried to find a compromise between ease and luxury of modern life.
Rustic style bedroom for maximum comfort
The bedroom has a specific practical purpose. This is a room in which you need to create conditions for a quality pleasant stay. Full coziness, comfort will allow you to relax, disconnect from everyday worries, recuperate. Modern trends, such as minimalism, hi-tech, have certain advantages. But their brevity is not to everyone's liking. Many choose more comfortable options for bedrooms. The design, borrowed from the traditions of rural decorations in past centuries, is now very popular. The interiors of the bedrooms in a rustic style have a special charm, maximum comfort.

Country and rustic, specialties of destinations
The definition of "rustic" is applied to many different destinations. Each nation and culture developed its own traditions in the design of the home. A bedroom in a rustic style in the spirit of French Provence and a room decorated according to the Scandinavian model will have certain differences. The variety of options provides an opportunity to choose a design, taking into account your ideas about comfort, coziness.
Bedroom in country style
All areas of this style can be divided into two large groups: country and rustic. In interior design, traditional country music is created according to the traditions that have been formed in past centuries in American ranches. But this group also includes Provence, which originated in the French provinces, the Russian style, which is typical for rural houses in our region, and others. This design is dominated by:
- furniture, as if hastily put together from boards;
- minimally finished surfaces;
- simple shapes.
Rustic style bedroom
The high popularity of this direction is due to the originality, uniqueness of the interior, which is welcomed by today's fashion. Photos of rustic bedrooms allow you to appreciate its originality. Despite their simplicity, these designs are able to provide maximum comfort.

General features of the country style
Numerous areas of country style have specific characteristics. But they also have common canons inherent in all variations. If you want to create a full-fledged atmosphere of a cozy bedroom in a country house, you must use in the design:
- items that reflect the traditions of culture, era;
- nature motifs;
- handicrafts;
- artificially aged furniture.
