Craftsman Interior Design
Here are a few of the top interior design elements of craftsman living rooms:
Custom wood finishes – One of the most distinctive attributes of this style is the warmth of its wood finishes and details. From its wood moldings to door & window casements, the custom wood finishes show attention to details of the Arts and Crafts style.
Exposed beams – Dramatic exposed wood beams look impressive and provide elegance to the space. These features are paired with high vaulted ceilings to enhance the look and feel of the space.
Large windows – The wood finishes of this style rely on plenty of light to brighten the room. Windows can also provide views to the outside and help maintain a connection to the outdoors.
Window casings – Windows are framed with detailed wood casings that work with door openings and ceiling treatments to match the overall design.
Hardwood flooring – Beautiful hardwood floors flow through the space to help create a connection to the porch, kitchen, dining room, and outdoor entertaining area.
Fireplace – A central hearth is the focal point of many craftsman living rooms. Fireplaces often have beautiful decorative mantels or wood or stone and are flanked by built-in bookcases, high windows, or cabinets. Different types of materials for fireplaces, such as stone, cement and marble, blend into the space gracefully.
Color Scheme – When picking paint colors for your living room, you’ll want to create an inviting, cozy vibe that screams “craftsman charm.” Imagine rich, earthy tones inspired by nature itself – think deep browns reminiscent of aged wood or potting soil. Warm it up with some terra cotta red and sunshine yellow accents. Don’t be afraid to go bold!
For a calming touch, work in some muted olive greens that bring the outdoors in. Maybe incorporate a pop of mulled wine for depth and contrast (yes, please!). The variation between vibrant and muted shades adds serious visual interest.
Combine it all, and you’ve got a cohesive, enveloping palette that captures the craftsman style’s effortless blending of rustic and refined. Texture is key too – layered materials in coordinating tones elevate that organic feel.
