Cottagecore: New Countryside Living

In an age where cities swell and hum with endless demands, a quiet exodus is unfolding. Fueled by a yearning to escape the pressures of modern life, a new generation trades urban density for open skies, slower rhythms, and homes shaped by something more intentional. Though rooted in rural settings, these spaces carry the imprint of their inhabitants’ cultivated sensibilities—expressions of a design language shaped by urban influences. Tethered to their historic bones and quirks, they demand a reconsideration of what it means to live and occupy space—revealing themselves far more beguiling than ideal. This book ventures into the heart of the Cottagecore lifestyle, assembling a portrait of interiors crafted by urban exiles with a knack for making even the most die-hard city dwellers dream of staking their claim to a quiet patch of land.
