Natural stones and fabrics are the hallmarks of traditional Italian decor. A rustic Italian decor will have Tuscan influences and a modern Italian decor will have sleek, minimalistic overtures.

Colors: Use any color that could be a wine. I am serious. I went to school for this.. Texture: Always use rough textures, nothing smooth. The furniture is easy. Stay with rugged looking wood, and you can't miss.

Colors are warm, earthy yellows connected with Tuscany. Textures for walls are typically white washed coarse plaster work, or stucco. Floors are always tiled, with rustic, small, glazed tiles. Colors are terra cotta orange or brown, cream, green. Furniture is of a general European farm style: coarse, simple pine wood and wrought iron are often seen.
