When we think of a traditional town Prefabricated Houses versus a house in the country, we would be forgiven for making certain assumptions about the décor and ambience we would expect them to create. A stereotypical town house would be modern and contemporary, whereas a country house would be more traditional, may be containing antiques like a farmhouse or cottage. Is it true that people living in a city tend to opt for more modern interiors? And do people living in the country prefer a closer to nature approach?
The classic British children's story "The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse" is about two cousin mice, one that lives in the country and the other in a city. The town mouse is invited to the country mouse's home for a simple country style meal at which the town mouse is appalled and invites his cousin back to the city for a taste of the fine life with an exquisite feast. Whilst eating their varied and delicious meal in the city the mice are interrupted by a couple of dogs that force them to abandon their food and scurry to safety. The country mouse is prompt to return to the quiet security of his home, preferring this to the hustle and bustle of the city. The moral of this story is the acknowledgement of different lifestyles and that everyone has different preferences, sometimes even within the same family.
This ancient fairy tale, highlights the stereotypes of country living versus city life, but surely now that travel is so much easier and people adopt a much more nomadic lifestyle, when coupled with advances such as the world wide web, surely the gap between these differences is being bridged?
Is it not possible that contrary to the tale, due to the speed at which city dwellers now live, they do in fact want their homes to be a quiet tranquility of relaxation, almost like their escape to the security of the country. Or vice versa; a person living in the countryside may prefer the sleek, angular designs introduced by contemporary design, a contrast of modern living in an aged surrounding.
The availability and speed at which modern interiors can now be obtained and due to the internet, multiple TV channels and communications, all mean that like people, design styles and tastes travel much easier than in historical times.
Natural architectural features should not be removed or covered, but instead nurtured. Even though a wooden beam in a room may not be a conventionally contemporary feature, it would be any interior designers crime to try and hide it. Instead you should work around this, making it an unusual feature of the room. Don't be tempted to paint it in order to add colour, but instead leave it naturally exposed, using other elements in the room to bring in the design styling you desire. Natural floors and features can easily be brought up to date if the rest of the room is painted in natural colours and the furniture used is has clean, glossy lines, resulting in an eclectic mix of the two styles working together in harmony.
The moral of this more modern article is therefore to, yes, accept that everyone is different, but to try and avoid stereotyping. In this day and age we are able to dip in and out of particular lifestyles, whether it is a way of life or Granny House a design style, to pull together a personality that suits the individual. We should embrace technology that allows us to learn about and bring lifestyles together, rather than simply sticking with what we already know.
