19 of April '23

How to arrange an interior in the cottagecore style? What exactly is this style? We present 5 things that are necessary when creating such an interior.

Cottagecore - also called farmcore or countrycore. The origins of this style date back to 2018, but it was not until the pandemic that it really flourished. Cottagecore is not just a style of interior design or clothing, but an entire lifestyle. It rejects the urban "rat race" manifested in interiors as glamour. Instead, it focuses on coziness, ecology and closeness to nature. In cottagecore interiors you will also find many vintage elements expressing nostalgia for the times of carefree vacations in the countryside.

British idyll

Cottagecore refers to the English countryside of the Victorian era and Romanticism. The style glorifies a simpler, balanced life and time spent away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The style celebrates being in one's home, so it must be refined down to the smallest detail. The most important aspect is to achieve an arrangement that is cozy and cheerful. So inspiration from the rustic style will work great. It is also worth equipping the interior with a fireplace.

Nostalgic colors

The cottagecore style interiors are dominated by natural but serene colors. Here you will find colors of nature such as beiges, browns and greens. Combine them with shades of blue, yellow and red for a radiant arrangement. The aesthetic also includes white and pastel colors, especially blue and powder pink.

Nature patterns

The idyllic countryside is associated with multicolored gardens and animals. These are the kinds of motifs you will most often encounter in cottagecore style interiors. Don't be afraid to combine a variety of patterns. Stripes, floral motifs and checks intertwine here like flowers in a meadow. If you like bolder arrangements, look for tablecloths, bedspreads and tableware with fruit motifs such as raspberries, berries or strawberries, mushrooms and animals such as rabbits or deer. Lace and embroidery are also ideal, preferably handmade or purchased from local artists.

Look to the past

Look for vintage furniture that will bring a nostalgic atmosphere. Those made of raw wood will work best. An absolute must have interior in this style is a solid bookcase filled with books and trinkets. Furniture with a vintage flair will also work perfectly in the bedroom. A retro-style dressing table or a large two-door closet will add an idyllic touch to the interior.

Unique decorations

To complete the cottagecore style arrangement, choose everything associated with nature and the countryside. Opt for natural materials such as linen and cotton. On the dresser place a self-made bouquet of flowers found on a walk. Retro lamps and lanterns will add to the atmosphere. You can even think about decorative oil lamps. Also stock up on ceramics and vintage glassware.
