Modern Farmhouse Design Tips

Farmhouse style does not need to be overly rustic. With the right editing of accessories and finishes, you can create an impactful modern version of the traditional Farmhouse design. Choose a neutral palette to make this design easy! Gone are the days of cheesy colors that harken back to older farmhouse looks. The neutral palette brings in a contemporary composition and will help your farmhouse look fresh, modern and current.

In modern farmhouse design, the finishes you choose will have huge impact. Consider using tile with texture and lots of it, in neutral tones. We love this wood looking tile, perfect for a contemporary farmhouse kitchen called “Rooted Walnut” by GBI Tile + Stone available through Earth Elements.

If you want the farmhouse feel but really would love to keep it very modern and clean lined it truly can be beautiful! Keep in mind a few easy guidelines to help you along the way – 1) Keep it simple and free from too much going on 2) A neutral palette will be an easy way to have it feel sophisticated and not too traditional country in style 3) Use the perfect tile. Those with a texture add interest while keeping it not overly busy.  

Enjoy!
