If the building is new, you need to take into account its shrinkage or start repairing only six months old. First of all, it concerns buildings from a log.

Wiring and other communications leave open or hide in the box, for furniture. There are wires stylized by retro style. They are not as noticeable if you choose the desired color and look good. The floor and walls next to the stove need to be treated with flame prescription impregnations, and the territory near the stove or fireplace isolate. For example, bind it with a stone. Do not forget about the need for good ventilation, exhaust, maintaining the average humidity level. All this is necessary that the tree does not clarify and the fungus did not appear.

Furniture, Textiles & Decor
Chrome and plastic parts often look alien in a wooden kitchen. There are exceptions, but designers are recommended to stay on the headsets from the massif, laminated MDF or glass.
As for textiles, it will have to be very useful in the country interior. Carpets, sofa pillows, blankets, beautiful curtains will complement the cozy atmosphere. In a large room, there is a full-fledged dining table, in a small instead you can attach an angular bar counter.
