Unlike some other house design trends, the farmhouse style translates well to many areas of the U.S. The new farmhouse design isn’t likely to look dated after a few years and light exteriors feel especially fresh and springy, a decided advantage over many existing homes. Software for New Modern Farmhouse Designs.
Modern Farmhouse Style
If you're looking to design the modern farmhouse kitchen of your dreams, look no further than these stunning ideas. Each example mixes the three essential ingredients for creating a drool-worthy cooking space: modern features, rustic elements, and industrial-inspired accents. When blended just right, the result is a sophisticated kitchen that's also warm and inviting.Farmhouse Colors
There are no hard-set rules for modern farmhouse colors. However, a winning palette seen in many spaces combines white, black, and natural wood tones. For instance, this dreamy kitchen built by Gardner Homes features white quartz countertops, black shaker cabinets, and an island wrapped in walnut wood.Shaker Cabinets
Simple shaker cabinets, white subway tile, and, of course, hand-hewed barn beams give this kitchen remodeled by Bauscher Construction an approachable look. Treating the mint green island to a distressed faux finish adds to this kitchen's relaxed yet stylish vibe.Copper Light Fixtures
Copper accents are having a big moment because the metal works with a broad range of décor styles. In this cooking space by Blakes London, the industrial-inspired copper lamps add a little shine and warmth to the room.Wood Range Hood
There's so much to love in this kitchen by Alys Designs that we have to share it in two different photos. This glimpse shows off the wood wrapped range hood.Vintage Kitchen Cabinets
The second photo of this cute kitchen by Alys Designs features a herringbone tile floor, vintage cabinetry, and open shelving made of reclaimed wood. We particularly love the midcentury apple sign that adds a pop of color.Period Lighting

This modern farmhouse kitchen by Home Made Lovely keeps function top of mind with separate zones created for different purposes. For instance, the food prep area features a spice rack and crate filled with cooking utensils. There's also a coffee station with everything needed to get brewing.Wood Flooring
Wood floors are a modern farmhouse staple. In homes with open floor plans like this one designed and built by AK Construction, continuous wood flooring that includes the kitchen improves visual flow. Another brilliant idea worth stealing from this house is the barn-inspired pantry door (on the right).Shiplap
Shiplap adds a dash of rustic charm — not to mention interesting texture — to a modern farmhouse kitchen. In this cooking space designed by J. Robin Interiors, white shiplap covers both the ceiling and the wall over the upper cabinets.Decorative Wood Braces
The island in this transitional kitchen designed by Taryn Emerson incorporates one of our favorite hallmarks of modern farmhouse style: X-brace supports. Here, the decorative accents help to carry the weight of the countertop.Mix of Metals

When it comes to enduring style, white kitchens win. This modern farmhouse example by 1111 Light Lane was created on a tight budget using IKEA cabinets.Copper Industrial Accents
This kitchen by Plus Rooms puts an urban twist on the contemporary farmhouse look by combining reclaimed parquet flooring, upcycled wood boards, and copper pipework. The result is a one-of-a-kind cooking space that's thoroughly modern.Fixer Upper
Pinterest inspired the design for this kitchen remodeled by Jen Homes. The first detail purchased was the free-standing kitchen island. Another key ingredient for achieving the modern farmhouse look is the ceramic apron-front kitchen. The vintage hardware for the brand-new cabinets came from eBay. Our favorite feature is the pantry door purchased at a salvage auction for only $80.Kitchen Cabinet Color

The home's transitional kitchen features a rustic kitchen island with a distressed faux finish, vintage pantry door painted yellow, and two gorgeous glass globe pendants lights.Rustic Textures
Transform your boring white kitchen on the cheap by adding rustic texture. The distressed brick backsplash in this farmhouse kitchen by Blesser House is, in fact, vinyl wallpaper. The eating counter was countrified using peel and stick wood planks. Notice the industrial-inspired pendants lights? They cost less than $10 to make.Bright and Warm

We worship ideas that conceal ugly. Corrugated metal panels hide the popcorn ceiling in this farmhouse styled kitchen remodeled by Tootie Trouy.Beadboard Paneling
Beadboard is another traditional material found in farmhouse inspired homes. In this kitchen updated by Red Cottage Chronicles beadboard paneling refreshed the old cabinets.Casual Elegance
This lovely modern farmhouse kitchen by Heidi Caillier mixes metals, textures, and colors to create a sophisticated space that's very approachable.Multi-Pane Windows

Here's a modern farmhouse kitchen by Holly Mathis Interiors that proves you don't have to blow your retirement account to install new flooring. Instead of going with hardwood, the designer chose affordable, commercial grade vinyl tile.Copper Sink
We mentioned earlier that one of the hallmarks of modern farmhouse style is a ceramic apron-front sink. This white cooking space by Christina Adventures mixes things up with a copper version.Kitchen Wall Art
If you practically live in your kitchen, consider spicing up your walls with art. This farmhouse inspired kitchen by The White Buffalo Styling Company turns a range hood into a focal point with a rustic painting.Cover Cabinet Panels With Fabric

The next biggest flooring trend, as seen in this farmhouse inspired kitchen by Holly Mathis Interiors just may be terra-cotta floor tiles.Moroccan Tiles
