To some extent, chalets, country, and Provence may be consonant with the Russian style. When developing a design, each owner must think over the design of each room and, perhaps, draw up an approximate diagram of each room.

The children's room should be equipped taking into account the opinion of the child. All his accessories and necessary attributes must be present in their places. But so that the room does not stand out from the general Russian style, you can simply decorate the walls with wood or a material that imitates wood. As lighting, you can choose a floor lamp, a lamp with a shade. Linen curtains will be a harmonious addition.

The bathroom is always a collection of moisture. Therefore, when decorating it, you can choose a tile that imitates a tree. But if you wish, you can also use a tree. Only it will have to be carefully processed, and the manipulation will have to be repeated at least once a year.

In the bathroom, you can place open shelves with different jars of creams, a mirror in a wooden frame, and Russian-style towels. You can, of course, provide for wooden tubs.
