Inspiration for a Farmhouse-Style Kitchen

You don’t have to live on a farm to experiment with a farmhouse interior design motif. This popular interior design style can be found in high-rise city apartments and even in balmy tropical regions, like the Florida Keys. Mixing antique elements and rustic finishes with high-end touches, this popular style is inviting and comfortable, so maybe now is the time for you to ditch your old decor and try something different. Our team at Royal Furniture & Design has carefully gathered some inspirational ideas to reinvent your kitchen the farmhouse-style way—including with Hunter Douglas window treatments.

An Introduction to Farmhouse Style

In a nutshell, the basic feel of farmhouse style interior design is rustic, comfortable, clean, and simple. The key concept is open and airy spaces coupled with functional upgrades and antique accents.

A Farmhouse Palette

A neutral palette is one of the hallmark characteristics of farmhouse style. Using whites, creams, tans, pale blues, greys, and greens will establish the foundation of the modern farmhouse aesthetic.

One popular choice for modern farmhouse style kitchen inspiration is the use of white or off-white shutters. We recommend Hunter Douglas Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters for a perfect backdrop for your modern farmhouse design.

These gorgeous shutters are designed to stand up to intense sunlight and moisture and are well-suited for the Florida climate. Their architectural look makes them a perfect fit for a farmhouse kitchen. They come in 3 stunning neutral shades to match with any interior: bright white, white, and white silk.

Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters are built to last. They are incredibly UV and moisture resistant and guarantee no warping, cracking, fading, chipping, peeling, or discoloring. Because of the unique Polysatin™ compound, they are water resistant and go great in bathrooms and kitchens.

You can select from three different louver sizes: 2 ½", 3 ½" or 4 ½". The wider the louver, the more modern farmhouse appeal you’ll achieve. You can also opt for a finished look with a decorative sill cover.

Use Texture Galore for Farmhouse Style

Another star feature of farmhouse style is the use of a generous amount of textures. Layering a variety of textured fabric will add depth and comfort to the overall aesthetic. You can mix different options like wood, cotton, canvas, corduroy, and even velvet.

For a window covering that centers luxurious texture and refined weaves, use Alustra® Woven Textures® Roman Shades. These shades use globally sourced fabrics in over 70 different textures and hues. You can select from three different fabric opacities: sheer, semi-sheer, and semi-opaque. With the Top-Down, Bottom-Up feature you can control your light and privacy all at once by lifting the bottom of the shade up or pulling the top down in order to precisely control light and privacy across any room in your home.

Use Wood for a Rustic Appeal

One of the most important characteristics of farmhouse style is the use of natural elements like painted or stained wood. Choose an oversized farmhouse kitchen table as the focal point and consider a wood ceiling fan or woven light fixture. Wide-planked hardwood floors are an excellent way to establish a rustic, country appeal. To finish off the look, there is nothing better than real wood blinds in a matching color or stain for classic farmhouse window treatments.

Hunter Douglas Parkland® Wood Blinds are traditional 100% hardwood wood blinds that will add warmth and depth to your farmhouse kitchen. They come in a vast selection of paint and stain colors that will show off the naturally beautiful grain of the wood. You can easily manage your light and privacy with a simple tilt of the 2" or 2 ½" slats which will give you a perfect view of the outdoors without completely lifting the blind.

For even further aesthetic appeal, you can select decorative tapes that come in a variety of patterns and colors. To make a truly bold statement, think about adding a decorative cornice or valance to give your windows even more substance and focus.
