Farmhouse Design in Your Kitchen

To incorporate farmhouse design in your kitchen, start by considering the colors. Your walls and cabinets should be neutral or nearly neutral. Consider an eggshell, beige, or sage shade for your walls and another for your cabinets if you’re leaning into a modern farmhouse. For more rustic colors, consider natural greens, blues, and earth tones.

For your counters, use natural materials; butcher block and stone are both good options. The backsplash can be many things. You can consider shiplap for a wooden texture or patterned tiles.

In your farmhouse kitchen, you can use wood, a wood composite, or laminate that looks like wood. It’s an excellent choice for flooring, shelving, and farmhouse blinds. Shutters made from a wood composite are also a good choice, and you can select a color that adds contrast or fades into the background. Exposed wood beams in the ceiling can be a nice touch.

  • Add metal elements in lighting, sink fixtures, throughout décor, and even handles in the drawers and cabinets for a modern farmhouse vibe.
  • Add antique milk cans, vases, and simple linens for a rustic farmhouse touch.

Farmhouse Design in Bedrooms

Just like in your kitchen, color palette matters for your bedroom. Select neutral colors for your walls, floors, and linens in modern farmhouse, and natural blues, greens, and browns for rustic farmhouse. You should also include natural materials as often as possible, like wood flooring. Modern farmhouse window treatments and rustic farmhouse window treatments can consist of wood shutters or composite wood blinds or shutters.

Select wool, linen, burlap, cotton, and other natural materials for bedspreads, pillows, drapery, and area rugs. A mix of fabrics adds visual interest and texture, so mix them and use them differently.

Exchange existing furniture for vintage or antique pieces that add character.

Farmhouse Design in Your Living Room

For farmhouse design in your living room, use wood flooring and wood elements where you can, like for shelving and furniture. This includes rustic and modern farmhouse window treatments like wood blinds and shutters. They’re ideal for blending, privacy, natural light, and a view.

Leather or faux leather armchairs are a good addition, especially alongside contemporary furniture, for a modern farmhouse vibe. An exposed brick wall, a fireplace, or a shiplap wall can add texture to either a modern or rustic farmhouse approach.

Soft area rugs made from natural fibers create a nice visual and comfort.
