WHICH COUNTRY'S INTERIOR AESTHETIC WOULD YOU CAST IN YOUR HOUSE?

Modern, rustic, colonial, shabby chic….and the list goes on. With copiousness of unique decor styles, it can be daunting to decipher which style works best for your abode. While some might enjoy combining elements of several styles to create an ideal theme, another great option is to sincerely borrow a look from various countries’ biggest interior trends – not only it brings a boundaryless inspiration to your home but evokes a distinct global appeal too. From American colonial decor to Poland’s uber-modern interiors, choose your vocabulary to express your vision. 

If you liked the idea of bringing home famous interior trends from across the globe, we have made it easy for you.

Early American Country

This style draws inspiration from the agrarian way of life – the natural resources, handmade furniture, and textiles of the time. You can start by brightening your room by replicating a historic colonial colour palette consisting of saturated hues such as barn red, Wedgwood blue, deep green, rust, grey, and straw-yellow set against the neutral walls. You can also choose to anchor a seating area or dining room with a painted canvas of floor cloth or braided cloth rug. The cherry on the top will be the addition of antiques to your décor.

Scandinavian Style

We cannot miss the Scandinavian design that pays homage to the simplicity of life in Nordic countries. Including all-white colour palettes is one of the most common characteristics of a Scandinavian home. When borrowing this style, try to incorporate natural elements like form-pressed wood, bright plastics, steel, and wide plank flooring – for these being huge champions of the theme. Another great insight is to keep more of natural lighting, spacious passways, and less-sleek accessories because ‘minimal at heart’ is what a Scandinavian home speaks about.

Moroccan Splendour

Thanks to its fame, Moroccan design is now relatively easy to achieve without making a trip to North Africa. Morocco’s diverse history has given birth to an interior design which underlines a spectacular host of colour, texture, geometry, and warmth. To bring the splendour of Moroccan’s decor standards just focus on warm colours, patterns, and organic craft products, and you are good to go. Also, welcome metalwork, ceramics, and weaved items to channel the soulfulness of the style and throw a pile of floor cushions to add a pinch of genuineness and you’ll enjoy a house with a difference.

Tuscan Touch

The Tuscan vibe is all about creative craftsmanship which brings home a passionate mixture of texture and colours. If you are trying to recreate the Tuscan look, you’ll be pleased to find a wide selection of paint colours and style that mimic the weathered walls of a rustic villa. Since it has a little prudent style, try to keep the rooms very sparse with limited essential furniture. The heart of the theme includes rugged flooring of stones, wood planks, and terracotta which take their cues from the warm Mediterranean climate. For an authentic Tuscan country dining room place some simple accessories like an olive basket, pastoral artwork, candles, and of course, Italian pottery.

Polish the Poland way

Polish interior designs tend towards the unusual. If you are fascinated from hidden beds or coffin-like wall units, Poland’s polish home décor is just for you. Such interiors are dominated by ultra-modern interiors that particularly favour white walls and ceiling spotlights. Use more of black and dark brown to compliment the white, that is what you usually see in Poland’s interiors.
