We can argue that the most used room in the house, aside from the living room, is the kitchen. It is a room that becomes the fundamental part of the house, which means that the state of the kitchen itself can be a determiner for whoever is looking for a new property. Many will pick the property based solely on the kitchen alone, so if it does not look good, the house will not sell at all. Even if you do not intend to sell your house, the kitchen decor determines how comfortable you feel when you are in your kitchen.
One of the kitchen design ideas that you must try is the rustic design. Not only does rustic design have plenty of options, but it also gives the kitchen a cozy, welcoming feeling that is not present in any other designs. Here are some rustic kitchen designs that might be applicable for you.
Use Wood on Wood
From wide wooden floorboards, wood beams for ceiling, to wooden cabinet, the aesthetic wood-themed kitchen will bring natural ambiance inside the rustic kitchen. Especially if you use dark wood with red furnishing, it will radiate warmth that invites you to relax and enjoy the scenery. Or you can try bright color palettes for your kitchen–it adds some modern touch.
Combine Stone with Wood
The perfect combination for an authentic rustic kitchen is stone combined with wood. The stone adds more rustic looking, country themed feels in the kitchen. You can place the stones anywhere you want, such as adding them to the fireplace hearth, embed them to the walls, make them into floor surface, or make the entire counters with granite; it is all your choice.
Be Creative with the Paint
There are several ways to design a rustic kitchen; choosing a plethora of paints is among one of the ways. Just go wild with this one and pick which one that creates rustic look the most: using dulled, primitive paint to show aged and time-worn kitchen, or painting the kitchen with bright colors to resemble a modern kitchen, or mimicking the wood beams with some paints.
Rustic-Modern Blend for Elegant Kitchen
Maybe you do not want your kitchen to be all rustic; you just want a hint of it to add some flair into your modern kitchen design. Just incorporate clean white cabinets, black-and-white walls, and shining stainless steel with wooden furniture: wood-covered walls and wooden floor.
