French-inspired interior is as trendy as it is a classic. The hallmarks of the interior style are a minimalistic colour palette and retro elements. Learn the quick tricks to designing a French interior that will have your café, home, or even office looking très magnifique.
If you’ve been to France (or Pinterest), you’ll know that French cafes not only feature handsome pastries, but also interior designs.
While the rustic and industrial café styles are prevalent around these parts of the world, they can be a bit overdone. The next time you’re looking for inspiration for your space, keep these classic bistro staples in mind:
Black, White, and Pop
For an instant bistro feel, keep the colours black and white à la minimalistic design with a third colour that acts as an accent.

Retro Rattan
One of the many reasons why we love French eateries is because they seem to transport us to the past. Retro design rattan chairs add a relaxed, yet chic look to such cafes.

Insta-Worthy Typography
If it’s a café you’re designing, it doesn’t hurt to have fancy text for your indoor signage or menu boards. It’s adds to the theme and makes the place photo-worthy for all the customers who will be sharing them on Instagram and other online platforms!

Old School Tiles
Tiles like these are another signature of these eateries. Cop the French look with clever tile choices. Experiment with bold colour choices and patterns to really elevate your space.

Velvet Booths
While French bistros sport clean designs in terms of furnishing, they lack not in the luxe department. Add texture and detail in the form of velvet booths. Be careful with this material though, picking the wrong colour might cheapen the look – stick to darker shades instead.
