What Is Shabby Chic Interior Design?

Shabby chic style embraces a worn and vintage look that makes your home lived in, it is a mix of soft colours, used with feminine accents, and vintage style decor.

Elements Used In Shabby Chic Interior Design:

Natural finishes: Rustic and distressed surfaces are a must in shabby chic design, Driftwood, bamboo, and whitewashed bricks are all a great example of natural finishes to use. 

White: White is the most dominant colour used with shabby chic style, whether it be off-white, rustic white, or distressed white, a whitewash is always used as the main colour

Soft colours: Against the white, a soft colour palette, the vibe should be gentle and soft throughout, NO bold colours or prints. 

Textiles: Soft and relaxed fabrics that are naturally wrinkled always work with this style, linens, lace, and vintage fabrics are all good examples.

All these colours go great with chalky white, and natural tones to make the perfect shabby chic colour combo.
