The bistro style for a friendly interior!

11/15/2021

The end of the year is approaching and the temperatures have well and truly cooled off! Why not take refuge in your home to share convivial moments with friends and family in a bistro atmosphere?

The bistro style is a trend that is increasingly appealing to fans of warm, friendly decor. Raw wood sideboards, small round tables, metal hanging lamps or even the inimitable Thonet chairs: bistro style can be found in all categories of vintage furniture!

What is bistro style in decorating

Largely inspired by industrial style with the use of metal furniture, bistro style also finds many inspirations in vintage wooden furniture with rounded shapes and rustic materials such as caning.

Don't be afraid to incorporate the bistro style into your decor in small ways. A large mirror running along a wall will remind you of cafe and brewery ambiance while giving depth to your interior. Wine racks or metal drink carts are your allies. Psst..the Beaujolais nouveau will be up for grabs on November 19.

An authentic and friendly style

The key word for a successful bistro interior is its authenticity! So opt for noble materials and quality furniture.

If this style is easier to incorporate into a kitchen or dining room than a living room, feel free to opt for a leather bench! Likewise, opt for a wooden bench. Once covered with your best cushions and plaids, it will always inspire more conviviality!
