Some of the elements that define modern farmhouse are shiplap walls, sturdy reclaimed beams, glossy stone surfaces, modern sleek lighting, a bright natural color palette and organic elements. Incorporating these features in a minimal and modern way is really what makes the farmhouse trend work.

Start with a bright airy color palette, which means white walls, a light floor, clean lines broken up by organic forms like plants or stone or wood textures. Another great way to open up a space is with natural light, so adding in windows where you can really helps out.

Modern farmhouse design is flexible and can be adapted to a mid-century, classic or luxe style, and this look can go anywhere you want to take it.
