You’ve probably become familiar with this design style through the work of Joanna Gains<\/a>. She’s mastered the look, creating light and bright interiors that perfectly balance touches of rustic charm against clean contemporary lines. However, the great news is you don’t need a celebrity designer to achieve the look in your home. Simply follow the guidelines below for a foolproof modern farmhouse design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Layered Textures Galore<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The majority of farmhouse interiors have a great sense of hygge. They feel cozy and welcoming from the moment you step into the room. This is largely due to the abundant layers of texture in modern farmhouse decor<\/a>. Using fur and leather throw pillows to contrast against the hardwood and stone finishes will result in an inviting and interesting space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another way to bring in additional texture is to incorporate items directly from nature. We love seeing pops of greenery in potted plants and cuttings (whether natural or faux). Lastly, area rugs are an essential texture must-have that also adds coziness to the space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Mixing Metals<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Farmhouse interior design isn\u2019t the only design style that loves to blend metals. This growing trend is here to stay. Contrast is your friend, and there’s no longer a need to have all the metals in a room in the same finish. So mix and match to your heart’s desire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Black, gold, silver, oh my! They all work together so beautifully when you pay attention to detail. This especially holds true for sleek kitchen and bathroom design ideas<\/a>. However, no need to stop there. Mixed metals can look stunning in any room of the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kitchens no longer blend into the background. We love that modern farmhouse design<\/a> isn\u2019t afraid to make a statement with the heart of the home. Bold subway or herringbone backsplash tiles, crisp white or muted gray\/navy\/sage shaker-style cabinets, and prominent fixtures are common features seen throughout this fixer-upper paradise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Large Dining Tables<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When thinking of modern farmhouse interior design style, it\u2019s easy to imagine large family gatherings around the table. It\u2019s so important to share a meal and have conversations with the ones you love. What better place to do it than a beautifully designed dining room? So, for your next modern farmhouse interior makeover<\/a>, be sure to include a dining table large enough to fit a group! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Contemporary

If you’re short on space, consider an expandable table that can be brought back down to a more compact size when guests aren’t over. The extra dining chairs can always be tucked off to the side or used as accent seating in an entryway or living room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Modern Farmhouse Style: Neutral Color Palette<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Modern

Perhaps one of the most consistent features we see is a neutral color palette. There are often contrasting colors used to create interest in the room. When you do see pops of color, mostly it’s subtle shades that can be found in nature. Deep navy blue, sage green, and burnt orange are a few of our favorites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keeping the walls a white or off-white color gives the perfect blank slate to let the texture of the furniture and accessories do the talking. If you have large windows in the room, maintaining the color palette neutral also allows for the view to take center stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Industrial Accents<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While we haven\u2019t been seeing as much industrial design prominent in the design field in recent years, that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s not making its way into other trends just like this one. Subtle industrial touches such as concrete accents are a great way to bring in a raw and natural feel into the room. The perfect contrast to an otherwise farmhouse<\/a> interior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Rustic

Metal accents in furniture and lighting are also a great way to incorporate industrial touches into your modern farmhouse home makeover<\/a>. We love the mixture of wood and metal. It gives off such a raw yet sophisticated vibe that we can\u2019t seem to get enough of!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Greenery & Plants<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Open-space

Arguably, a tip that should be included in most interior design trends is adding greenery. Bringing the outdoors in is good for the mind, body, and spirit. Not only does it purify the air, but you can also use this tip in a practical sense by planting an herb garden in your kitchen. No farmhouse interior design is complete without greenery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, avoid \u201cdead corners\u201d by adding a floor plant to fill the vertical space and soften the overall feel of the room. The designers have spoken, and it\u2019s safe to say this modern farmhouse<\/a> trend will not go anywhere anytime soon. And we couldn\u2019t be happier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
