Elements of Modern Farmhouse Design
If you’ve heard of Chip and Joanna Gaines, then you know exactly what a modern farmhouse interior design looks like. Gone are the days of “primitive country” design, which you may recognize by its signature elements like clunky wooden shelves and hooks featuring carved-out hearts, or endless plaid trinkets and curtains in faded blue and red. Modern farmhouse design introduces a more minimal, airy, and sleek approach to the country interior design tradition.
If you’re looking to create a warm, rustic, yet bright and clean look for your home that pays homage to a simpler lifestyle, this might be the design for you. Not quite familiar with the modern farmhouse style? We’re here to help you pinpoint the key elements of this burgeoning trend so you can easily apply them to your home design:
- Neutral color palettes with occasional contrast
- Shiplap
- Subway tile backsplashes
- Hardwood floors (worn and oversized planks)
- Cement floors
- Exposed wooden beams
- Apron sink
- Rustic, antique design accessories
- White walls
- Exposed brick
- Industrial lighting
- Barn doors
- Vintage furniture to soften the space
