Escaping to the country never felt better, and you can achieve the very essence of the farmhouse or country cottage look by following a few simple steps. Country cottages are renowned for their exposed wooden beams, so you could look at adding wood features to your space to make it more immersive. Fabrics go a long way with this interior style, so being able to coordinate modern colours and fabrics with texture will give you a sense of balance while remaining luxurious and traditional, elements of a classic country home. Choosing art to match can be a challenge, so we'd recommend choosing a painterly abstract or botanical artwork to create a striking finish for your space.
If it's the English Rose look you are looking for, choose classic wall art for living room such as nature prints, floral photography or watercolour botanical art will encapsulate the beauty of the countryside and bring nature indoors.
