Home renovation: what styles can I be inspired by?

Whatever style you decide to imprint on the apartment, the ideal will be to rely on a team of professionals

The renovation of the house is a garrison of absolute creativity, which is combined with the need for renovation and the desire to customize a newly purchased apartment. From country to classic style, from vintage to modern, there are many styles that can inspire you to create the home of your dreams and that thanks to the team of cost-renovation-home professionals it will be possible to obtain.

Country style
Lovers of warm country-style atmospheres probably have an old house, perhaps a farmhouse. It will be useful to keep certain original elements that can recreate an environment of character, for example the exposed beams – which guide the eye through the rooms – and the stone walls. As for the choice of floors, in the country style the ideal will be terracotta or porcelain stoneware but always in light shades or shades of brown. The furniture will be recycled or antiqued, with a “decapé” effect.

Vintage style
The style that winks at the past and updates it is appreciated for its ability to arouse nostalgia. The furniture takes on an expressive value thanks to the signs of time artfully highlighted. The vintage style is extravagant and eccentric, a dip back to the twenties. It is made up of vintage prints, typewriters with black keys and radios that become bluetooth amplifiers. The golden rule? Since vintage spans several decades of the last century, it is good to avoid mixing objects that are too different and belonging to distant eras: the chaos effect is just around the corner.

Classic style
Lovers of tradition and soft lines will find a safe haven in the classic style. Looking to the past through period furniture is always nice: a way to offer an elegant and sober identity to the rooms, marked by decorative elements and inlays that recall tradition and craftsmanship. The massive use of wood – even for parquet – is an essential feature of the classic style, as are the rich padding of the sofas covered in upholstery. The floor must dialogue with the walls and furnishings, even in terms of color: yes to cream and pearl white or gray and pink with veins.

Modern style
Large cities are often dominated by traffic and noise, which is why homes in such a context need to inspire order, functionality and cleanliness in their lines. Geometries take over and undermine sumptuous decorations or accessories. The contrast is between the materials – especially glass and steel – and the minimalist features and the optimization of space also dominate. A small and modern house often develops vertically, with the intervention of multifunctional furniture or furniture equipped with castors to interpret the needs of different rooms.

Provencal style
When it comes to Provençal style, the mind runs to the French countryside. The inspiration comes from the houses and residences surrounded by greenery. The rigor of modern style is light years away: soft, welcoming and essential lines are enhanced. The dominant colors are those that tell the story of spring, which thus lasts all year round. Mimosa yellow and Prussian blue dialogue with glass, straw and flowers on cushions, tablecloths and sheets. The coverings are often in stone (inside and outside), and the furniture is recycled and treated ad hoc to highlight the streaks of the wood.

Rustic
Here wood is widely used, left in a raw state, to be combined with other warm materials such as terracotta and iron. The call of nature is evident in the choice of colors: dark green, brownish and brick but also white. The windows are large, to facilitate access to natural light as much as possible. The rustic style can be chosen to interpret certain corners of the house to which you want to give a welcoming character, for example a reading corner with a floor lamp and a relaxation armchair. Hang paintings with countryside landscapes and family photos for an atmospheric touch.

Industrial style
The environment shaped according to the dictates of the industrial style – born in America in the 50s – is characterized by raw materials and factory-type recycled objects. Pipes, exposed lamps and dark shades are the masters in the living room which is almost devoid of traditional decorations, except for geometric carpets or flaky pony skins. Stone and resin are combined with rough surfaces and walls. It is the perfect style for lofts and open spaces but is also able to interpret small spaces, playing on the perception of volumes. Chandeliers and curtains are dark: they contrast with the light that reflects on bookcases and sofas with peninsulas.
