french country

Gallic pastoral region

French country is a style of interior design and décor evoking the rural homes of southern France—warm colors, distressed wood, wrought iron, and rustic textures.

The aesthetic blends elegance with farmhouse simplicity: a french country kitchen with exposed beams and copper pots.

The term appears frequently in home magazines and furniture marketing.
