Furniture and home design in country house style or cottage style are very popular with many people. With chests of drawers, tables or cottage-style kitchen units, you can finally bring a piece of history and a bit of romantic country life into your home.

Using this style creates emotional memories. The hustle and bustle of modern everyday life is to be replaced, at least for a short time, by cosy country life. Old-fashioned country houses serve as models. Pastel colours are often used, with wood at the top of the list. Simple decorations, such as rose patterns, embellish the furniture. Materials such as brass, zinc or linen are also at the top. And often the pieces of furniture have a rustic shape, which creates a pleasant atmosphere. You can find this type of furniture at www.moebro.de.

The purchase of these pieces of furniture is much more exciting than buying the latest modern chairs and tables in the nearest furniture store. Furniture in retro look can be purchased for example at old goods dealers or flea markets. If necessary, you can restore the pieces yourself if it is necessary and you have fun doing it. But the best thing is to talk to the sellers. In most cases you will learn a lot about the past of the furniture. So, you buy the history and a piece of tradition at the same time.

How could you use furniture in this style? In the bathroom, for example, a country-style washbasin with a built-in sink and drain can reflect the cosy country life. There are many more possibilities in the dining room. For example, an old wooden table with wooden benches to eat around, or a large wall clock and a hanging shelf. There are no limits to your imagination. Anything you find while browsing flea markets and anything that fits may be used.

Some opponents of this direction find that such furniture would look unsightly. Correctly placed and used are elements from the country house style or Shabby Chic furniture but in any case, an enrichment for every apartment. The emphasis is on "correctly used". Country style furniture can be the big feature of a house. However, one should not exaggerate it, otherwise the whole apartment can seem run down. Here it depends on the personal taste. Who is not sure, should rather consult an interior architect?
