When interior designers are planning a house interior or
room, they will choose a particular style for their design and plan the furniture, colours, patterns and textures to match it. Here are some of the different design styles that designers choose for people’s homes.
Rustic
This style looks very natural and uses materials found in nature. Before carpets were used to
cover floors, people had wooden floorboards and used wooden
furniture and handmade items. This style might include natural or
painted wooden floorboards, wooden furniture, and crates and ladders as
shelves. Ceramics, old glass bottles,
hand-stitched quilts, woollen blankets and sheepskin rugs can all be used.

Have you ever wondered how archaeologists piece together the remains of things to work out what they looked like? Like a detective solving a crime, they uncover clues. A stone ball buried in rubble, a mass grave, a rusty horseshoe – all these things mean something to an archaeologist.
Now it’s your chance to become an archaeologist! Learn about medieval life and siege warfare. Discover the different parts of a medieval castle and what they were used for. Then, armed with this new knowledge, you can take on the challenge of piecing together your own awesome 3D model castle.
