The rustic trend, which features wood paneling on interior walls, has some style benefits. However, the designer said, it’s overdone and dated.
“It’s also impractical — if a piece of shiplap gets damaged, it can be difficult and expensive to fix depending on the extent of the damage,” she told BI.
If you want to lean into a more rustic home design, Lang recommends limewash paint, which has a streaky effect.
“Limewash gives you the opportunity to add dimension with different brushstroke patterns that give your walls an old-world, vintage feel,” she said.
