French Provincial Home Renovation Ideas
The traditional architecture of a French Provincial style house typically has large, square windows and beautiful brick or stone walls with rich timber accents creating a character all of its own. This is a place where you can feel at peace in your surroundings just by looking around!
However, before starting any renovations it’s important for homeowners to not only get ideas about how to best showcase these features throughout their home but also what kind of style they might want.

French Provincial Architecture Inspiration
The architecture of Chateaus is truly a thing to marvel at. These palaces were built during the 17th century in France, yet still have this old world charm with fresh takes on traditional techniques. This gives a feeling that is both modernised for today’s lifestyle yet also has a nostalgic feel about it.
Stone or brick construction paired up nicely against white shingles is one way these homes stay true to their roots while incorporating new trends. Depending upon what architectural style you choose, you can achieve a lovely airy feeling inside your house’s interior space.

This is because the ceilings are typically high, the windows wide and there is an abundance of natural light. The floors are usually made from hardwood which creates a bright atmosphere and an old-world charm all of its own!
