In this installment of our series on using hardwood floors in popular interior design styles, we turn our attention to the warm comfort of the Rustic Cabin look.

Whether it’s a home in the mountains, by a lake, or deep in the woods, many people in relaxing natural settings want an interior design that’s equally relaxing and fits with the beauty outside. That desire has given rise to the popularity of the “Rustic Cabin” look.

This look is natural, casual, soft, and warm, inviting you to come in and put your feet up by the fireplace. Hardwood floors, with their inherently natural beauty, play a big part in creating that cozy atmosphere.

Rustic-grade hardwood has a “rugged” feel that’s perfect for a cabin-style home. You can add even more depth of character with hardwood that’s hand-scraped, wire-brushed, or distressed. This type of flooring really makes a home feel like a getaway.

Homeowners going for the Rustic Cabin look often have great success using hardwood walls, which can be just the thing to really create a “woodsy” cabin feel and can be used to great stylistic effect in combination with the floors. Exposed rafters in the ceiling, which are a common element of the Rustic Cabin style, can also be matched (or contrasted) with the flooring.

With a Rustic Cabin interior design, you can have a home worthy of the beauty of the great outdoors. Please stop by our showroom or give us a call to discuss how you can use hardwood floors to make that look happen.
