|| Be inspired: How to decorate in a modern rustic style Since original Tuscan houses and cottages were built to last for centuries, nothing changes dramatically in the set of materials used both for the outside and for the interiors natural stones such as limestone, sandstone, travertine and marble as well as local woods keep recurring all over: hand-scraped wooden ceiling beams and stones on a fireplace or to frame an arched doorway are omnipresent! All elements that contribute to add an elegant rustic chic character.
In a modern Tuscan home, all of this remains central but is integrated – or elegantly substituted – with a few contemporary design amenities and modern comforts. To fully embrace the beauty of the Italian Tuscan style, try to visualize the mild, typical central Italy countryside scenario : sweet rolling hills dotted with vineyards, lavender fields, olive trees, umbrella pines and picturesque villages.Ĭentral to this dream scenario is the typical Tuscan stone wall farmhouse, a large multi-generational property with a simple yet imposing architecture, a mix of elegance, ornate details and drama, but with a comfortable, sturdy, relaxed-rustic feel inside: huge fireplaces, oversized elements, intricately detailed pieces and large open spaces outside: a sunbaked terra cotta patio or portico that invites to conviviality.

If you are a fan of the non-minimal and extremely cozy interior décor styles (like the trendy boho ) and warm earthy atmospheres, for sure you will fall in love with this new aesthetic that elegantly blends classical Tuscan countryside architectural elements with modern touches to seamlessly adapt it to the amenities of the XXIst century.
I know, we have just stepped into autumn to walk slowly toward the cold season (which for many of you, including myself, is a very tough moment especially since I have left the warm African shores ) so try to be not too nostalgic if I propose you a trip back in time to the sweet and gentle sun-drenched mild Italian countryside.
