Rustic decor is the ultimate combination of all things natural, rough, and aged. Similarly to industrial design, you'll want to include weatherworn woods, distressed materials, and mix-match hardware. However, rustic differs in that it is less harsh and often considered more of a "feminine" industrial vibe without the dark metals, heavy hardware, and exposed frameworks. 

Color Scheme

This decor style often includes base colors of light greys, browns, and whites, which are complemented by a variety of accent colors, such as light blues, faded greens, and soft reds. You should experiment with a variety of different textures and patterns in each room. 

Furniture and Decor

Most rustic furniture and decor is casual, handcrafted, and comfortable with an worn or distressed appearance. It's less dark and heavy than industrial decor, but more raw than farmhouse or boho designs. Consider using antique woods, soft fabric cushions, leather couches, clay pottery, wicker chairs, handcrafted shelves, glass storage jars, suede poofs, natural or faux fur carpets, etc. You want to go for the "chic meets log cabin" vibe that is both cozy and elegant. 

Accessories

Light up your rustic home with worn wooden, wicker, or metal pendants, tall corner tripod lamps, or candle-light chandeliers. Rustic accessories are usually handmade and include a variety of raw materials, such as clay, stone, wood, glass, metals, and epoxies. Decorate your living space with metal trays, tobacco wood baskets, wall ladders, abstract art, big wall clocks, and more!
