Interior designer Huong Vu offers a unique perspective on the rustic charm and warm, homey simplicity embodied by farmhouse decor. “The tonal harmony between the paper wall decor and the wood paneling establishes a delightful focal point,” she suggests. This idea of using wood paneling adorned with paper stars as a backdrop for built-in shelving units is a great illustration of that.
Central to this cozy living room is a white fireplace, flanked by the two shelving units. The fireplace is not just a source of warmth but also a display space for more farmhouse decorations and a holiday garland. A vintage wood mirror, placed atop the fireplace, enhances the room’s rustic aesthetic.
