Country living has long been associated with a relaxed, informal way of life and a sense of tradition.

Contemporary solutions and innovative ideas work equally well when old spaces are given over to new uses, converted, renovated or just revived. It's impossible to deny that modern country style is still based on traditional rural values.

Presenting some of the most exciting examples of the contemporary interior design, Modern Country is full of inspiration on how to achieve that highly desirable ideal of comfortable country living combined with the clean lines and edited design of today.
