Architectural Series Spotlight: Rustic

Ferche Millwork realizes the importance of being able to make the vision for your home come to life. Creating the vision can often be the hardest part, so Ferche offers a wide variety of mouldings to fit every style. Recently we created the Architectural Series, a professionally designed family of mouldings that coordinate with six distinct styles of décor. Last week, our blog featured the ‘Arts & Crafts’ family of mouldings. This week we turn the spotlight to the fifth group of mouldings in the Architectural Series: Rustic

Rustic architecture brings the outdoors into your home. Inspired by nature, this style offers a warm, comforting feel. The great news about rustic architecture is that it’s versatile and works well with other styles. So if you’re not sure you want to turn the feel of your entire home into a Rocky Mountain getaway, it’s okay to start with one or two rooms.

To enhance the rustic feel of your home, pair a Rustic Ferche moulding with:
  • Exposed beams
  • Stone accents
  • Fireplace
  • Pops of earthy color
With some finishing touches, you can easily make Rustic architecture feel rugged, or charming. To achieve a more rugged feel, furnish with rich colors and incorporate hints of leather, and metals such as cast iron.

For a more charming feel, incorporate the shabby chic style with lighter colors, and dainty patterns. Whatever look or feel you are going for, don’t be afraid to mix and match. The versatility of Rustic architecture lends itself to near-endless possibilities.

While creating that perfect vision can be challenging, finding the perfect mouldings for your home should not be. We’ve made the process of finding our mouldings easy, simply follow these 3 steps:
1. Visit your local lumber retailer.
2. Explain you would like the family of moldings that coordinate with the “Rustic” style in Ferche’s Architectural Series.
3. You’re done!
