Hey friend,

The best way to design a modern farmhouse is to combine essential modern farmhouse elements with your personal touch.

So here are the 5 essential elements that can’t miss in your modern farmhouse.

1. Sliding Barn Doors

An iconic feature of farmhouse style, sliding barn doors add a rustic touch to your interior while saving space. Choose a modern design with clean lines and a light wood finish or paint in a soft neutral color to blend traditional and contemporary styles.

2. Apron Front Sink

Also known as a farmhouse sink, this deep, wide sink adds functionality and style to the kitchen. Opt for classic white porcelain or a stainless steel version for a more modern twist.

3. Shiplap Walls

Shiplap adds texture and interest to the walls, embodying the farmhouse aesthetic. For a modern approach, paint the shiplap in white or light gray to keep the space feeling bright and airy.

4. Industrial Lighting Fixtures

Lighting fixtures with a mix of metal and rustic finishes, such as wrought iron or brushed nickel, can highlight the modern farmhouse look. Choose simple, geometric designs to maintain a contemporary edge.

5. Vintage or Rustic Accent Pieces

Incorporate a few carefully chosen vintage or rustic pieces, such as an antique wooden coffee table or a vintage metal clock. These elements add character and a sense of history to your modern farmhouse home.

And that was it friend.
