The interior of this living room exemplifies a brilliant blend of modern design with classic elements, where a compact wood-burning stove serves as the central feature. Positioned in a niche with a chimney, the stove not only functions as a heat source but also becomes the visual focal point of the room. Above it, a solid oak wooden shelf displays photographs and souvenirs, adding personality to the space.
The color palette is restrained: gray walls create a neutral background that highlights the vibrant red ornamental rug in the center of the room. This rug not only brings warmth and coziness but also structures the lounging area, unifying the coffee table and soft furniture. The black coffee table with books demonstrates the intellectual interests of the owners while serving as a functional piece of furniture.
On both sides of the fireplace niche, framed artwork is symmetrically arranged - a classic technique that gives the space order and completeness. Accent decorative elements - a blue lamp on the console to the left and a green glass vase on the right console - add color accents to the interior. Live plants, especially the large fiddle-leaf fig tree in the right part of the frame, infuse the room with life and freshness.
The woven basket for firewood next to the stove is a functional element that simultaneously serves as a decorative accent, emphasizing the natural aesthetics of the interior. The textured pouf with a pattern in the right part of the room adds additional seating and serves as an interesting textural accent.
When designing the interior of a country house, several techniques can be borrowed from this space: using a central element as a focal point; symmetrical arrangement of decorative elements to create balance; combining various textures (wood, metal, textiles, wickerwork); using bright accents on a neutral background; integrating functional elements into the design.
