Whether you live a city life or country life, you can take a deep breath and enjoy the warmth of nature that shines through in a rustic kitchen. The great thing about defining a rustic space is learning that there are a wide variety of looks that invoke a rustic feel. Natural wood elements and stone are often incorporated, as are rough-hewn wood beams.

Warm Wood Pairings

Dark woods with red undertones combine well with painted kitchen cabinets . Barn-colored red adds a cozy element to cabinets or islands and pairs well with natural stone countertops.

Timeless Stone

Wood is not the only way to bring nature indoors. Adding a slate tile backsplash or incorporating a stone hearth warms a kitchen. Adding any natural mineral, like quartz or granite countertops to your Iowa City kitchen cabinets , helps create a comfort zone in your rustic kitchen.

Use Color to Your Advantage

Bare wood is not a necessity if you hope to achieve a rustic look. Think of all of the colors you see on a fall day and allow nature to inspire your color palette. Choose shades of brown, red, and green to bring the warmth of nature inside.
