Kitchen design in country style (+55 photos)

Translated from English, "country" means the countryside, but even in the center of the metropolis, a kitchen decorated in this style will give a relaxed atmosphere to a ranch, a cozy summer cottage or a country estate. Inspiration for such an interior can be found in American Westerns and traditional rural culture, borrowing from them natural simplicity, solidity and convenience. If you approach the design of a country-style kitchen with a soul, the result will bring you the most positive emotions!

A rustic business card is natural materials. The basis of the interior is rough wood and stone, solid solid wood furniture, wicker and clay products, and cute trinkets, rustic textiles and vintage decor give it a lived-in look.

The natural harmony of natural textures and shades contributes to relaxation - in such an environment, problems and hardships are quickly forgotten, and instead they are in the mood to make a delicious pie or have a festive dinner. It’s nice to touch the matte wooden surfaces, and from them it blows home comfort.

Country style is very practical, I want to spend as much time as possible, feeling the calm regularity of the country life.

At the mention of a rural house, wooden walls and antique furniture in brown tones are immediately presented.

The color of chocolate, from bitter to milk, is simply indispensable in a country style. Even if the kitchen is entirely made in bright colors, then at least minimal dark accents should be present in it. For example, the surface of a countertop or the upholstery of chairs can be brown. At the same time, harsh black in a rustic interior is inappropriate.

Instead of a cold snow-white shade in the country, slightly diluted matte tones are used: milk, cream, vanilla, light beige and sand.

Walls or ceilings are often painted white, often kitchen furniture is presented in this color - but, unlike the classic design, the facades are not decorated with carved curls or gold frames.

The life-affirming color of grass and leaves looks as organically as possible next to natural wood. Green walls and textiles wonderfully emphasize the texture of solid wood furniture.

For kitchen sets, delicate olive, mint and emerald shades are usually chosen, for which beige or gray are equal in saturation.

The red kitchen is a bold and unusual solution, but in the country style, it looks quite calm. Matte lingonberry, terracotta and burgundy tones look great on the facades of the headset, elegantly repeated in a small textile pattern, utensils and decor.

The ideal background for such a rich furniture will be white or the color of light wood.

Until the end of the 20th century, natural materials were the only ones available for arranging everyday life. Now, when plastic and polymers are gradually replacing them, the once simple wood, limestone, vine and clay have acquired an elite status - often the price of such an eco-friendly design exceeds even the ultra-high-tech. However, it is possible to equip a kitchen in a country style even with a limited budget, especially since a high-quality natural finish will subsequently last more than a dozen years.

It is impossible to imagine a rustic kitchen without a plank floor.To increase the life of the parquet board, it should be covered with a matte varnish or moisture-proof oil impregnation.

A more practical finish is white or brown tiled tiles, as well as porcelain stoneware imitating stone or wood.

In a small kitchen, it is better to make the floor plain or staggered, using a small tile (10x10 cm).

For walls in the kitchen should be applied moisture-resistant coatings and materials. In the country style, decorative “chipped” stone, ceramic and clinker tiles are ideal for this purpose. If desired, they can only be lined with an apron, and the rest of the walls left for painting, upholstered with wooden lining (in extreme cases - plastic panels under the tree) or wallpapering.

Even in rustic design, textured stucco with the effect of antiquity, brick and stone masonry, wallpaper with floral ornaments, patchwork tiles, as well as mosaics with pastoral plots will be appropriate.

The ceiling in the country-style kitchen is usually decorated with wooden beams. If the height of the room allows, then you can use - false beams from MDF. Hollow inside, they will help to hide the wiring and will not hang menacingly over your head.

In small kitchens, the ceiling is better to simply whiten or paint with white water-based paint. If a stretch film is used, it must necessarily be matte, as light as possible.

Rustic coziness is unthinkable without light beautiful fabrics. Curtains, tablecloths, napkins, kitchen towels, chair upholstery - all this gives the interior of the country-style kitchen a very cute home look.

Chintz, cotton and linen are traditional for this design direction. However, given how difficult it is to take care of these materials, it is better to give preference to synthetic imitations that are easier to wash off from stains, do not wrinkle and do not fade in the sun.

Country kitchen will be decorated with textiles with small floral patterns, as well as in a cage or polka dots. Ruffles, lace, ruffles, ribbons and bows are welcome.

Beautiful kitchen furniture in country style is sometimes found in luxury salons, and its price is quite high. But you can always find a compromise, for example, turn to carpenters-craftsmen, restore old things or do it yourself.

The set, which at first glance gives the impression of reliability, durability and rude simplicity, is most likely related to the country style. It can be made of solid wood, MDF or chipboard, with a unique wood texture or painted, but this is always solid functionality without any frills.

The facades of the headset can be decorated with simple geometric carvings, diamond-shaped lattices or perforations. Doors are necessarily with handles, the old fashioned way. Accessories are used mainly copper, brass or iron. The hood can close the facade to the tone of the rest of the wall decoration or in the form of a chimney.

As for the rules of placement, for a small kitchen in the country style, it is better to choose a tall, but narrow, L-or U-shaped. In a large space, you can afford the island option, when a place in the center is reserved for a functional high table.

The furniture for the rustic dining area is a traditional rectangular or round wooden table, stable chairs with high backs or a massive bench. Forged metal elements, rattan or wickerwork are possible. The seats are often upholstered with soft fabric with a floral pattern or brown leather.

In a small kitchen, the function of the dining table can be played by a folding shelf, vertically mounted on the wall, a large window sill or other device.

In a country-style kitchen, it is not necessary to hide all things behind the dull facades.Beautiful crystal and painted ceramic sets will only decorate the interior, being behind a glass partition; for pans and improvised appliances you can make wooden hangers with hooks - so they will always be at hand.

Open shelves, however attractive they may seem, are rather impractical - dust, particles of fat and moisture will accumulate on objects placed there. Therefore, it is better to place most products and kitchen utensils in closed cabinets, drawers, and fix them on hooks or magnets on the inside of the doors. Plates and lids will be more convenient to store vertically in special nets, rather than stacking them in a stack.

Separately, it is necessary to provide boxes-organizers for various trifles, cutlery or spices. You can store vegetables, bread and other food in the rustic kitchen in pull-out wicker baskets or wire trays.

Old things from the grandmother's attic are ideal for a rustic style: a cuckoo clock, a wooden chest with metal corners (by the way, a rather capacious storage system for stocks of flour, sugar and cereals), an oil lamp, ancient stove tiles (any of them looks like a work of art and can be used as panels), embroidered towels or crocheted napkins.

Any wooden, wicker and forged ornaments can also become a highlight of the interior. Do not neglect the wall plates with hand-painted folk style, pottery, figurines of pets and birds. All this can easily be found at fairs or ordered online.

Choosing lighting fixtures for the kitchen in a country style, you should avoid ultramodern options. Spotlights, neon ribbons, fluorescent lamps with their cool white or bluish light are best left for hi-tech. In a rustic style, soft yellowish light from dot diodes imperceptibly mounted on work surfaces will look much better.

As for the chandelier, it is advisable to choose it in the form of old wrought iron candlesticks, but simple white, "lace" and even stained glass shades are also quite suitable.
