White or cream walls, oak surfaces or cabinets, and touches of black in hardware and ironmongery all feature. Modern farmhouse style tends to be lighter and brighter than the traditional farmhouse kitchen.
The key is to focus on elements that add warmth, depth and authenticity.ĭon’t be afraid to mix up styles – traditional finishes and fittings can combine very effectively with modern conveniences, such as brass handles or steel windows. However, getting the farmhouse look in your kitchen is more about enjoying the laidback essence of relaxed country life, than slavish replication. Think exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces and woven materials, all of which can be recreated in a newer property. The traditional farmhouse kitchen is celebrated for its characterful features. Whether it’s olive branches, pussy willow, or ornamental grass, a couple of strands in a ceramic jar immediately gives a farmhouse effect. Live on a decent sized property? Consider taking cues from your backyard and bringing those elements inside.
