Inspired by the apple, I’m thinking about crisp interior design ideas.

Interior design ideas can come from a delicious apple.

Getting inspired by an apple might sound odd, but I’m ok with being a little odd. It just comes standard in the package, being an artist-designer.

I think of apple-inspiring designs in 4 different categories of design.

There’s the straight-from-the-country red-and-white plaid with classic country farmhouse style. Done with an editing eye, the country apple interior design ideas can be executed stylishly. They don’t have to look like the 1980s.

Then, there’s the farmhouse modern look of the apple interior decor. While the interior has tons of farmhouse finishes, it’s refined with cleaner lines and crisper styling. The colors are singular in the placement, and less of a blend of patterns like the country apple interior.

Even more refined is the modern apple. While there may be color of the green, yellow, or classic red, the pairing is simple. Mostly whites, lighter wood tones, and even a few classic elements from the farmhouse could pop in. For these interior design ideas, it’s more about the statement pops of apple color.

The fourth style? Well, that’s all about upcycle. Using the apple crate in new and fun ways to make a house into a home.

I’ve been ogling interior design images that remind me of each of these four distinct styles. Can you guess which is which?
