Furniture should be quite heavy, made of dark wood, the seats are usually covered with striped silk in green or golden brown tones. In the living room of the house, designed in this style, it would be nice to build a fireplace, on the shelf of which it will be possible to place traditional fireplace mantels and small porcelain figurines.
- Country style. This style is ideal for a small country house. It uses materials common to a simple village house. The floors of light unpainted wood, soft wallpaper with a pattern in a small flower, embroidered and trimmed with knitted lace linen tablecloths and curtains - all this will be appropriate in a house decorated in country style. As additional details of the interior can be used porcelain dishes, a copper samovar, grandmother's chest or other lovely little things. The main thing here is not to play with their number, otherwise you risk turning your house into a junk warehouse. Furniture for a house is better to buy a wicker or made without any frills from ordinary light wood.
