Modern Farmhouse

Modern Farmhouse design takes the comfortable, relaxed farmhouse style and adds modern touches such as smooth lines, glossy accents, and neutral colour schemes. It is less rustic than a typical farmhouse, instead it is more sophisticated and uses contemporary design elements like stainless steel appliances, natural stone benchtops and sleek lighting.

The modern farmhouse strikes the fantastic balance between pastoral and refined styles. The interior design focuses on comfort and casual living while keeping contemporary touches of the modern times. It is the ultimate utilitarian design with natural elements intertwined with refined and sophisticated characteristics. Large spaces, an abundance of light, and contrasting dark woods of farmhouse.

The modern farmhouse takes many classic and antique elements and incorporates a current day spin. The aesthetic is brought to life with minimalism accented by country chic items. The mix of old and new creates a familiar and soothing vibe. The old in the kitchen can be unique finds, family heirlooms and arty decor. In combination with modern surfaces and spacing, the mix will welcome all eras and elements for a comfortable yet modern setting.

The materials used are key to bring forth the atmosphere promised by this combination of styles. Natural materials including timber juxtaposed with large marble countertops can create the desired effect of the city styled farmhouse. Wood, neutral tones, stones, tiles, and white walls are a foundation for the setting of a Modern Farmhouse kitchen.

The use of restraint in placing pieces around the kitchen will aid in providing the focus on space rather than clutter.  Unique fixtures and pieces can be placed in the kitchen to create a statement, and bring the attention to the low key, high end luxurious atmosphere. Whether these are oversized hanging lights or vintage preloved faucets the Modern Farmhouse style can be adjusted to fit any home size to bring country to the modern world.
