In decor, the concept of rural style varies according to the geography.

Therefore, the delicate rural interiors of the French Provence and Italy's Tuscany region are very different from the rustic style found in stately North American homes or Britain's famous cottages.

To keep abreast of current trends and the individual needs of each family, all of these architectural styles and designs have been updated and reinterpreted.

Each project covered in the book focuses on a particular objective, be it the achievement of a bright minimalist interior, a sustainable home or its integration into the landscape.
