On my initial post in exploring rustic interiors, I wasn’t too fond of the wood heavy colors in rustic interiors. Until I was browsing rustic interior architect designer projects by Locati Architects. Wow.
The Grandeur of Rustic
Yup, wow was my expression when I saw these Locati projects. I mean, I’ve been up in the mountains in Tahoe and Mammoth and have stayed in the mountain lodges which are usually themed in the lodge/rustic style. But I realized I haven’t seen what grandeur rustic style can have until I saw the following. See for yourself.
I don’t know if it’s the view or the high ceilings but everything looks so right in it’s place in this interior.
The stone, the wood, the snow capped mountains. Mmmmmm.
Again, perfect setting, perfect view….. Oh, I can’t wait to go skiing again!
The weathered edges on the black bookcase is a nice and lovely touch.
Different designers, different tastes even in the same style
These are just a small sample of the rustic interior styles I found from Locati Architects. You can find my more at their Official Locati Interiors page. What do you think about this second batch of rustic style inspirations? I’m starting to see how it can look good, but it still is not my preferred style of course.

Do you like the outdoors? Nature? The woods? The forest? Woodlands? Well, those are the things I thought about when I was perusing the internet for on rustic style interiors. And maybe Rustic is something for you? Rustic elements include the use of stone, wrought iron, natural fabrics (cotton, linen, wool, leather/suede), metal and woods. Pretty much the rustic interior brings in color and ambiances from nature. Not really something I’d go for because it’s too wood heavy. Although, I do like the one’s where natural elements are used with lighter color tones.
The Taverna 3
See all the dark finished wood so prominent in the style? Again, not really my tastes, but maybe yours? What do you think?
A Rustic Kitchen 2
Is it the photography or still a little dark? But I do like the use of stone tiles along the walls of the kitchen.
A mix and match collection of private resident projects
Well, I originally had these pictures in another order, but I found some of Sassano’s work that I was more fond of toward the end. So I decided to post them first before I lose some of you in a rustic dark alley 
These aren’t exactly representative of the pure Rustic interiors but has the undertones of wood and natures color palettes. These are the few that I like from the rustic examples.
Now to the rest…
I really like the use of stone and rock that is prominent in rustic interior designs…
You can see more from Refined Rustic Studio and Gallery by Philip Sassano Design, based out of Chicago.
Well that’s it. I always thought that Rustic style had a lot to do with Tuscan. Maybe some similarities, but I’ll post on that next to be sure… until next time! Have a good day!
