The debut project of the decorator Olga Maleva, a graduate of the school-studio "Details", was her own house in the suburbs. The nature of the interior was largely determined by the architecture of the house in the Norman style. The facade with many windows and openwork railings looked too decorative, so the decorator wanted to make the interior space more restrained and light. Olga aspired to create an interior that would be relevant ten years from now. The decorator took her favorite shades of gray as a basis. In addition to this range, she chose a delicate palette of hydrangea flowers: fabrics and carpets of pale pink, lilac, blue, green and white-cream shades appeared in the rooms. The decorator covered the floor with black boards. The main premises of the house are located on the ground floor along one axis. This technique helped to create beautiful perspectives. Most of the furniture for this project was ordered in America. To make the interior look brand new, Olga added pieces of furniture “with history” to the decor: Ralph Lauren Home tables with old wood tops, an antique fireplace grate, and so on.
2. Mansion in the suburbs, decorated by decorator Kirill Istomin
Listing the brightest interiors of country houses published in ELLE DECOPRATION in 2014, one cannot fail to mention this work by Kirill Istomin. The customers invited a decorator to develop an interior design for a country house without changing the architectural design of the facade and layout. Almost every room has access to its own terrace - according to the decorator, this is the most important element of country life, which allows you to feel the fusion of nature and interior. The first floor is dedicated to common spaces. Next to the entrance hall there is an office with an adjoining winter garden. This is the owner's favorite. The living room and dining room are an elongated hall with a number of French windows. The unusual shape of the room is explained by the fact that earlier it housed a swimming pool, which the owners hardly used. Therefore, when rebuilding the house, the pool was abandoned. Next to the living room is a large kitchen. Private rooms - a nursery and a master bedroom, each with its own dressing room and bathroom - occupy the second floor. Under the arches of the roof there is another office and a guest bedroom. The decorator turned it into a kind of tent, covering the walls and window slopes with wallpaper with floral patterns repeated on pillows and curtains. Most of the furniture is made to order. However, the interior also contains antiques, such as the metal table of socialite Brooke Astor.
3. House designed by American decorator Kelly Westler
This mansion is located on Mercer Island, Washington, USA. The area of the house is more than 1 thousand square meters. The owners dreamed of an interior reminiscent of a private Parisian art gallery. Decorator Kelly Westler realized that the interior could not do without unusual vintage furniture, luxurious finishing materials and, of course, painting and sculpture. The floors are a bright mosaic of different types of marble and onyx. The decorator developed the patterns of these stone “carpets” herself, for each room she had her own. In some of the rooms, Westler used stone to decorate the walls, encasing marble panels with picturesque veins in thin brass frames. She combines this unusual technique with hand-painted wallpaper from Porter Teleo and De Gournay. The decorator was engaged in the choice of furniture together with the owners of the house. Many objects are made to order according to sketches by Westler. One of the most complex engineering structures was the spiral staircase in the library. Openwork brass railings covered with several layers of patina.
4. House designed by architects Vyacheslav Valovny and Elena Barykina
The owners of this house have always dreamed of living outside the city. The house stands in a pine forest near the Gulf of Finland. The owners were not satisfied with the original standard project, so they turned to architects Vyacheslav Valovnya and Elena Barykina. “First of all, we plastered the brick façade and supplemented it with wooden details typical of the dacha architecture of St. Petersburg at the beginning of the 20th century,” says Vyacheslav. - The open terrace to the right of the dining room has turned into a veranda, which also serves as a small living room. But the space at the entrance to the house caused the most trouble - it was assigned the role of the main living room. Vyacheslav designed an oval stove, which turned the room into one of the most spectacular rooms in the house, at the same time hiding structural elements. The picture is complemented by a mosaic floor, unusual for our latitudes, made using the terrazzo technique. Together with an oval neoclassical stove decorated with medallions and a garland, it gives the living room an Italian character. In general, the interior of the country house (photos of the main premises are attached) turned out to be eclectic - as often happened in Russian mansions at the turn of the century. The entrance hall and staircase are designed in strict proportions of northern modernity, the interiors of the bedrooms are closer to French classics, the spa area resembles the Moorish living room of the Yusupov Palace, and the living room in the attic floor is an English club.
5. House in Pavlovsk, designed by architects Irina Shkolnikova, designers Elena Zaretskaya and Vera Lyzhina
The private house is located near the palace and the park of the Pavlovsk Museum-Reserve. The lion's share of the second floor, according to the original project, was occupied by open terraces, while the owners were sorely lacking living quarters. The owners involved architect Irina Shkolnikova and designers Elena Zaretskaya and Vera Lyzhina to the reconstruction project. The extra walls on the first floor disappeared, the resulting through space was supplemented by glass doors leading to the garden. A light staircase with “flying” steps spun around the supporting column. The open terraces on the second floor turned into bedrooms, living rooms and an office with a balcony. The windows have been increased in size - now they "grow" out of the floor. The floors in all rooms are lined with large slabs of porcelain stoneware. The walls are painted in neutral tones – this is how the designers created a backdrop for bright furniture, which plays a key role in the interior. There are many objects in the interior, for example, from the Italian designer Paola Navone - her handwriting is recognizable in painted wooden furniture and in sofa covers, deliberately wrinkled, sewn as if hastily.
6. House of fashion designer Roberto Cavalli in the suburbs of Florence
Listing the memorable, beautiful interiors of country houses, one cannot ignore the house of Roberto Cavalli in the suburbs of Florence. This is a real treasure trove, where a lot of outlandish items are stored, most of which were invented by the designer in recent years. This house, which is a rebuilt 15th-century tower, is home to the entire numerous Cavalli clan: wife Eva, children Roberto, Raquel and Daniel, as well as Tomaso and Cristina, the designer's son and daughter from a previous marriage. In the decor of the rooms, textiles with animal prints are everywhere, the seats of the chairs are covered with the skins of zebras and cows. On the bedspreads and pillows, and even on the fireplace chimney, there is a pattern imitating the color of a leopard. This interior evokes associations with the first collections of Cavalli - just as bright and provocative. A few years ago, Cavalli built an additional building in the garden, where his workshop is located. The owner is an avid collector. In addition to sculptures and paintings, the house has a lot of art glass from Daum and Emil Galle. However, there was a place not only for antiques, but also for samples of modern design. A large part of the furnishings are interior items from Roberto Cavalli Home. Table lamps and candelabra, wine glasses and china with a branded monogram - Roberto Cavalli's home collection has expanded significantly and today includes not only furniture, but also carpets, dishes, lamps, linens, wallpaper and even ceramic tiles.
7. House of French decorator Jean-Louis Degno in the suburbs of Paris
The main part of the building was erected in 1821, and in 1880 two wings were added to the house. The previous owners of the house used only a small part of the space - the hall, now turned into a pantry, the living room, which has become the opposite of the hall, and the kitchen, on the site of which Denyo made a guest toilet. The rest of the house was empty for several centuries. Today the house has eight bedrooms, a spacious neoclassical living room. There is a "Swedish" room, "Italian", "Chinese" room. Choosing a palette, the decorator was inspired by traditional English interiors. Most of the rooms are covered with wallpaper: the patterns enliven the interior, partly replacing the paintings. Many interior solutions were born spontaneously. For example, the decorator could not figure out for a long time what to do with the lobby on the first floor - there used to be a dance room here. The parquet was in a deplorable state. One day, Denyo brought a table from Ala Shal here for a while and hung a chandelier from the Sputnik model, popular in the 1960s, modeled after the first Soviet spacecraft. Both items unexpectedly "take root" in a new place.
8. House designed by architect and designer William Sawaya
The site that the architect chose to build the house is located on top of a hill. The house is a three-story modernist building with an area of 1,000 square meters. As for the interior, the rooms are not separated from each other, nothing interferes with the movement of light and air. The dining room is located on the terrace - the local climate allows such luxury. From the terrace you can see the village of Magdos (south of Italy). All the furniture in the house is the work of Sawaya himself or the work of famous designers who collaborated with his bureau Sawaya & Moroni, which he heads together with Paolo Moroni. In the center of the living room is Zaha Hadid's famous Moraine sofa, shaped like an iceberg. In the decoration of the house, William used materials for which he always had a soft spot: local marble for the floors and bleached birch for the walls. The interior is also decorated with works by contemporary artists.
9. House in Vicenza, designed by the architect Lanfranco Pollini
Italian architect Lanfranco Pollini created a modern interior within the walls of an old 16th-century building. In fact, this is an agricultural building that in the old days separated the main house from the outbuilding. The building adjoins the famous Villa Valmarana, built by Andrea Palladio. Adapting the agricultural building for housing, Pollini managed to maintain the original proportions of the premises. He managed to restore the facades to their original form. But while working on the interior, the architect allowed himself a few liberties. For example, an atypical floor for such buildings is oak parquet laid out in a herringbone pattern. For wall cladding, the architect chose artificial Venetian marble and wallpaper, which he painted in several layers of paint. Through wide arched openings, each room offers panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. As for the interior, the architect has opted for iconic design objects such as armchairs by Arne Jacobsen, DSR plastic chairs by Charles and Ray Eames, Parentesi lamp by Achille Castiglioni.
10. House designed by American designer Jeffrey Bilhuber
The designer was offered to renovate the family mansion, which is currently home to the third generation of the same family. It was necessary to make the house modern, while not crossing out its history, full of memories dear to the owners. The legacy inherited by the decorator is an excellent collection of European furniture, collected over many years, that has adorned this house for all these years. To some extent, it reflected not only the history of the family, but also the very place where the mansion stands - Taxido Park, a fashionable resort in the mountains of New York State. The designer started work from the living room - it seemed smaller due to the not very successful arrangement of furniture. Without thinking twice, the designer sawed off an armrest from each of the two sofas standing here and made one large one out of them. The room immediately became more spacious. One of the living rooms has been turned into a bridge hall, which the owners simply adore. Along the long sofa, the designer has arranged tables with frivolous umbrellas. Bilhuber removed the bulky stucco from the walls and painted them with colorful stripes. The designer brightened up the hall by painting the brown wood panels with turquoise paint, and added red lampshades to the crystal chandelier in the dining room. Accents of purple, orange, fuchsia appeared in all rooms, visually unifying the interior.

If you are a fan of contemporary design and modern lifestyle, then you will definitely love the open plan kitchen-living room. It is chosen so that both the kitchen and the living room become more spacious and bright, and it is easier for the hostess to be in the spotlight and follow the children's games while cooking.
This layout looks especially practical in small cottages and houses, where thanks to it the interior becomes more ergonomic. In the photo of the interior above, you will see its implementation in a small house in Gorki Leninskie (Moscow), which our designers created in 2018.

If you look at the same interior from a different angle (from the side of the TV), you will see a sofa area and a staircase to the second floor of this house. Here we chose decorative plaster with a large relief for decoration, which allows you to add a little urban charm to the interior.
Pay attention to the design of the stairs. With a baffle to the right of it, it's child-safe, and the black decorative screens have gaps large enough for kids to play comfortably if they want to. The steps at the stairs are wooden, which is also great for families with children.

Building a house takes a lot of time and money, and therefore it often happens that finding more time and good ideas for planning the interior of a house is quite problematic.
And using a photo of a modern design of a house of fashion design magazines is also a rather laborious process.
In this article, we will focus on the main design decisions when planning the interior of country houses that help to acquire a modern home design.
House concept
Of course, it is possible to create an interior of a modern design for a private house for each room, based on the tastes of family members. Or go to the other extreme, hire an expensive designer and turn the interior of the house into a picture from a glossy fashion magazine.
But in any of these cases, the result may not please you with comfort and coziness. After all, what looks great in the photo does not always correspond to your ideas of a comfortable and cozy home.
The task of choosing a single concept for a home is quite difficult, and many, afraid of getting a boring and monotonous space, refuse it. In fact, many styles coexist perfectly in one space and harmoniously fit and combine into a single design ensemble at home.
A very successful option, for example, a combination of the Scandinavian style with the Provence style. Another example is to suggest applying an eclectic style that combines a variety of stylistic options. This style of modern design of the courtyard of a private house can be diluted in the bedroom with a colonial style, and in the dining room with boho chic.
The main rule when creating a single concept is to choose a color palette that suits family members and consists of harmoniously combined tones and shades.
Interior style
It is extremely responsible to approach the issue of choosing a home design style in a modern style and not blindly follow fashion trends. After all, fashion trends are changing rapidly, and it is impossible to follow them and constantly make repairs.
The best choice for creating a stylish and practical interior designers offer the use of calm and light colors. In this case, it is worth considering the preferences in styles and the nature of family members.
And if the tastes and style preferences of family members vary significantly, in this case it is more appropriate to choose a neutral style. The same effect can be achieved by only hinting at the style in the interior of each room. But at the same time, all the rooms are united by something in common: a color palette, lines.
The most successful and winning styles in the modern design of a country house are classic, loft, Provence, Scandinavian, ethnic style, country style, chalet.
The most inexpensive and harmonious style in the interior of the house is the romantic style of Provence.
Provence is characterized by the use of abundant decoration in the form of numerous flowers, especially lavender, wickerwork, the use of floral ornaments on walls and curtains in pastel colors, and numerous textile accessories. The color scheme is richer in the country-style similar to Provence.
A trendy loft style created by New York artists, stylized as a conversion from a factory to a living space. Brickwork, heavy wooden structures, concrete imitation are used in its decoration.

How to make the interior of a private house more comfortable
Often there is a problem completely opposite to the previous one. The lack of comfort and warmth in the room can be depressing no less than their overabundance. To make the interior of your private home more cozy and welcoming, try applying some of the above tips in reverse, i.e.:
- Use large patterns instead of small ones;

At the same time, you don’t have to put massive furniture at all, because the interior can become cozy without cluttering the space too much. This can be facilitated by the same open shelves with many bright trifles, thin , floor carpets, framed paintings or photographs, etc.
But if you do not want to take on the care of a large number of interior details, then go the other way. Choose a dark color for one or more walls, warm and bright colors for massive upholstered furniture, and add some sculptural decor items to it all, such as floor lamps, floor statues, tall houseplants, large paintings, etc.
We save the interior design of a private house from chaos
Does your interior look too jumbled and unfocused? The reason for this can be not only a mess, but also an overabundance of various shades, patterns and decor items. To make the interiors of a private house look more calm and elegant, designers can apply the following methods:
- Create a central point around which all other decor items will be focused (fireplace, painting, wall clock, coffee table);
- Divide the interior with different carpets or other floor coverings, and organize separate ordered zones on each of them;
- Use oversized multifunctional furniture with additional storage compartments, as well as glass and acrylic furniture;
- Add an object to the room that will unite all the others (for example, if the room has a lot of decor in blue, pink and green tones, then you can buy a carpet or a large wall art that will combine these 3 shades);
- Add shiny mirror or metallic surfaces. They will easily smooth out any overabundance in your interior, whether it is an overabundance of shades or an abundance of any material, such as wood;
- Place items symmetrically or balanced ( );
- Add a vertical accent that will visually increase the size of the room. To do this, it may be enough to replace or rearrange the curtains to make them seem longer, install high shelves on the sides of the fireplace, buy high shelves, hang wall decor on top of each other, etc.

The interior of the cottage should be as comfortable and cozy as possible so that its residents can really relax and take a break from the noise and everyday life outside the city. The possibility of arranging a large area, the presence of high ceilings, as well as proximity to natural beauties - all this contributes to the use of a creative approach to creating a truly ergonomic space. To decorate the interior of a cottage or a country house, you need to follow a number of recommendations, which we will discuss below.
If the interiors of apartments in the city do not always depend on the features of the building, then the design of private houses will depend directly on the design of the building. For example, an Art Nouveau design is unlikely to look harmonious inside a wooden frame with traditional elements. In other words, the first recommendation is to maintain harmony between the interior and exterior of a country house.
As for the interior design of the room, we can say about the following nuances:
— Choose a single style for interior design;
- Provide the necessary color scheme;
- Choose high-quality modern finishing materials;
- Choose pieces of furniture that match the style;
- Properly use decorative elements and artificial lighting.
All these factors must be taken into account in order to create a beautiful cottage interior.
Color solutions
When decorating any interior, including a country house, it is important to choose the right color solutions. The wrong palette can make you feel bad and reduce productivity. Of course, it all depends on individual preferences, but there are general patterns.
The arrangement of a private house involves the use of several basic (more than four) shades of those colors that seem most attractive to the owner. But only one color should prevail for decorating the walls. It is recommended to give preference to neutral calm tones, while colorful shades should be used as accents. Remember that in a cozy cottage there is no need for excessive variegation, but it all depends on the style you choose, so there may be various color options.
One way to create an original interior is to combine smooth and embossed surfaces with different textures. In such a situation, even a monochromatic design looks contrasting and attractive.
It must be borne in mind that even just one textured detail can significantly enliven the space. For example, in a Scandinavian-style house, you can combine discreet curtains made of plain fabric and the same furniture upholstery with wicker chairs, large-knit covers, etc.
Furniture
In cottages or country houses, it is better not to clutter up the space with a lot of furniture. Moreover, modern trends dictate the fashion for minimalism. This is especially true for small houses, where it is best to pick up multifunctional pieces of furniture, possibly folding ones. In spacious country houses, large-sized furniture looks better.
It must be remembered that the combination of large objects and small details will look the most harmonious. If you place exceptionally large structures in rooms, they will not be perceived expressively. But too many small elements will sooner or later begin to annoy the residents and guests of the house.
Lighting
Lamps are chosen based on their appearance. It is important that during the day they fit into the overall style. Depending on the background, chandeliers, floor lamps or sconces are selected, they can be dark, light, golden - the main thing is that the atmosphere of a country house is stylistically coherent.
It is important to choose a lampshade wisely, so determine in advance which style you prefer - country, classic or minimalism. In large rooms, it is recommended to install large chandeliers, and for small rooms, compact lamps are more suitable.
Interior style for a country house
In country cottages, you can embody any design delights. However, in addition to fashion trends, be sure to take into account the individual preferences of the owners of the house. Consider the main characteristics of the most popular styles for interior design of cottages: country, provence, chalet, as well as Scandinavian and modern style.
Country style cottage
This style is suitable for lovers of rustic romance and family traditions. Country is the best option for owners of wooden houses.
In such interiors, the presence of modern materials, namely metal, glass or plastic, is unacceptable. For decoration, they often use wallpaper with floral motifs or stripes, decorative plaster or stone, imitation of a wooden beam.
Color solutions should be as natural as possible. For the living room, the main focus can be a fireplace, it is recommended to choose furniture that is not high. In the kitchen, put an old sideboard with shelves, a massive wooden table, linen or chintz curtains, and painted dishes.
Provence style cottage
This style is considered the ideal solution for creating a cozy country atmosphere. Mandatory attributes of the Provence style are considered to be the use of natural materials and floral motifs.
This fashionable French trend implies an important role for furniture and decorative elements. Choose solid furniture, perhaps vintage or aged. It is best if it is in light shades.
As for the decor, wicker elements, vases with lavender, porcelain and baskets look good in Provence-style interiors. All this brings a unique atmosphere to the house and makes staying in it comfortable, which is very important for cottages or suburban buildings.
Chalet-style cottage
For wooden cottages, the chalet style is also suitable, which will create a fabulous cozy interior with minimal decoration. As a rule, the floor and ceiling in such buildings are wooden, and the ceiling beams remain visible.
The main characteristics of the style are conciseness, the use of natural materials with a minimum of processing, as well as environmental friendliness. A mandatory detail is the fireplace, which occupies a central place in the living room.
Decor involves the use of wool, leather and fur skins. Household appliances in the kitchen are hidden behind cabinets so that the atmosphere of antiquity is preserved in the house. As a chandelier, plafonds made in the shape of a candle are ideal.
Scandinavian style cottage
This direction is characterized by restraint, minimal inclusion of decor and the use of high-quality natural materials. If you do not want to spend a lot of money on home improvement, but prefer modern trends and want to create a spacious, bright interior, pay attention to the Scandinavian style.
It is enough to align the walls in the house and choose a neutral background - most often it is just white paint. Wood is used as decoration. If necessary, the interior can be bright accents.
As for the furniture, it should be soft and comfortable, but the shape should be as simple as possible. In the Scandinavian style, natural wood is welcome. You can dilute the strict atmosphere with the help of pleasant little things, for example, unusual curtains or plants in a flower pot.
Cottage in modern style
In interiors decorated in a modern style, furniture is often used from inexpensive materials - wood, glass, plastic. However, it is important to choose all items carefully so that they are reliable. In practice, the modern style is suitable for those who are used to changing the interior of a country house every few years.
Designers advise avoiding any decorative elements, then the space will remain light and airy, nothing will interfere with the residents and distract them. The ceiling is often left concrete, and the floor is made of neutral-colored sanded boards, laminate with a simple texture. Spotlights are installed in the rooms.
