Embracing winter-inspired rustic interior design means you have a secret or not so secret love of a Nordic aesthetic.
Room decor ideas can come from just about anywhere, but this particular craze has an ease and comfort that is quite appealing.
The New Victorian Ruralist is masterful when it comes to featuring chic and rustic interiors, so much so that I am far too anxious for winter to arrive.
A particular hallmark of winter-inspired rustic interior design look would be bare, wooden floors. Whether natural, white washed or gray washed, these floors have a monastic feel but at the same time exude warmth.
While floors and walls may be stark, the introduction of furry accents like throws and pillows naturally cozy-up the rooms. Again, warm white and grays are the classic color scheme however a light dusting of natural linen and brown are always welcome.
The rustic winter bed is soft and adorned with natural fabrics. No polyblend duvets need apply. The common thread here, no pun intended, is a no-fuss, relaxed look. Simple accent tables make wonderful night stands in this type of room, and are the perfect surface for reading lamps, books and other winter essentials.
Rarely does one see such rough hewn kitchens and dining rooms unless you are in some small fishing village in rural Norway. However, how freeing would it be to not care whether we had quartz counters or a built in fridge?
Like the textiles in the images above, the dining room also sports natural fibers such as seen in the rugs and table linens.
1. I think the Heirloom Historic Nickel Wall Sconce would be amazing in a kitchen or hallway. A similar sconce is the Downtown Edison Brushed Nickel sconce.
2. he set of three white-washed tray tables would work beautifully in a living space or as a bedside table.
3. I love the Fredrick Ramond Emilie Iron Rust Mini Pendant for over a kitchen island.
4. There is nothing more cozy and perfect for winter than a silver Tibetan sheepskin pillow.
5. The timeless urn design of the Currey and Company Greta Washed Buff Urn Table Lamp makes it a favorite of mine for traditional yet casual rooms.
