Classic style
Modern classic style includes wood, brick and stone finishes. Finishing materials do not imply too high costs, there is a wide choice and different price categories on the market.
The style direction is unique and practical. Definitely suitable for the most capricious resident. Made in soothing colors and simple materials, the classics will not irritate or distract with unnecessary details. Moreover, it is an excellent investment, the demand for style proves it.
The floor is best covered with wooden boards or modern parquet. Such a coating is warm enough and will save the budget by eliminating the need for laying heating under it.
A fireplace made of bricks will organically fit into a living room with such an interior. In addition, this material is the most fire resistant, it does not burn and is completely safe. Stucco elements, curtains made of heavy fabrics with lambrequins will give the home a sense of luxury, financial well-being and constancy of the owners.

The local area necessarily includes a lot of flowers under the windows, a covered gazebo with a barbecue and a large table for receiving guests in your apartment.
Classic interior color scheme
This stylistic direction implies beauty and elegance. Colors prevailing in the design:
- sand;
- beige;
- cream;
- golden.
Their different shades are also suitable. Details should be symmetrical, high ceiling and strict observance of proportions. This is especially true when arranging furniture in rooms. In this style, plastic parts should be excluded, as well as flashy and bright colors, they will spoil the whole look of the house.
Rustic
Designing a house inside in a rustic style is much easier than in another stylistic direction. If it is small, made of a log house, then you will not find a better option. It is worth using only natural materials. Floors in this style are not painted at all or covered with a transparent matte varnish. The walls are decorated with paper wallpaper with a small pattern in the form of flowers. The hostess herself can knit curtains and tablecloths from light linen yarn.
Rattan furniture is the main touch of rustic style, and metal and glass will be the best finishing materials. A wooden chest of drawers is a must-have item for a rustic style.
The kitchen should be figuratively divided into a dining area and a work area. A kitchen set and the necessary household appliances should be in the working area, and a large family table with low chairs or a sofa should be in the dining room. Important in the desire to equip the house will be the selection of competent lighting so that the interior does not become boring and dreary.
The yard should also be zoned into separate areas - front, family and technical areas. The entrance is laid out with stone tiles, stunted flowering plants, a high fence and a gate are placed on the sides.
The technical zone involves outbuildings - a bathhouse, a barn, a garage. If you have a penchant for a summer cottage, be sure to leave some space for a vegetable garden, an area for flowers and a small orchard.
Tent under the roof, a large table with wooden benches - in the family area. A small pond, a hammock hung between trees and a playground will perfectly complement the landscape.
Many stone paths will protect shoes from mud in bad weather. The final touch is sufficient lighting around the entire perimeter of the local area.
Loft style
We equip the house with our own hands in the loft style. A red brick building with minimal finishes is an ideal option for this style. The roots of creation come from the distant times of the American Great Depression. Minimal finishes and the absence of decorative elements are the main criteria for its creation.
Inside the wallfrom brick or bare plaster are not covered with wallpaper and other materials. Batteries, cobbled ceiling and other communications should not be closed. Spacious rooms without doors and a minimum number of partitions distinguish this style from all others.
The floors are usually self-leveling or tiled with ceramic tiles, therefore, in order to be warm in such a house, care should be taken to lay the floor heating. If there are several floors, then the stairs are made of wood or metal, but without forged elements.
Decorative steel elements and metal blinds complete the interior.
What kind of furniture will be - it does not matter. Modern or antique, the main thing is a large number of places to sit: chairs, benches, large sofas.
The house territory, by its nature, should complement the interior of the house. These are low shrubs, benches and a table made of wood, a playground and an area for adults are a must.
