60+ Best Farmhouse Style Ideas

Annie Schlechter

We simply never tire of beautiful farmhouse style design elements. The way we see it, you don't have to live way out in the country to enjoy the benefits of this ultra-chic design sensibility, nor do you need to have a barn or a backyard chicken coop to connect to this aesthetic. You simply have to appreciate modern-rustic decor ideas!

Here, we're helping you take your love of farmhouse style to the next level with interesting decorating ideas for every room in your house. From farmhouse kitchens to bedroom decorating ideas to, yes, even rustic bathrooms, we've got all the professional tips and tricks that'll keep you inspired and your guests "ooh"-ing and "ahh"-ing. After all, is there anything more thought-provoking than a reclaimed wood coffee table, vintage gingham curtains, or a cozy chair that looks like it was plucked straight from the set of a Western movie?

Of course, what we love most is that each and every idea here takes a cue from a real-life house or room. We've got an elegant kitchen trend from a Mississippi barn, living room ideas from an 18th-century farmhouse, and even vintage cabinet ideas straight out of the walls of a charming New York farmhouse. Whether you have plans to renovate your house in the near future or you're just imagining the look of your dream home, this swoon worthy collection of farmhouse décor will serve you well.

Design ideas for a private house

What style to build your country house? To make a choice, consider the basic design ideas for a private house. We present eight options.

1. Russian country estate

A house in the style of a Russian estate with elements of Italian palazzos - ideal for a leisurely country life with long walks, family tea parties , charades and reading aloud. Characteristic elements of architecture are classical cornices, high windows, hinged doors, columns, balustrades.

This is a slightly lighter version of the house in the style of a Russian estate.

7. Modernism

House in Pozdnyakovo near Moscow. The author of the project, architect Rafael Shafir, says about it this way: “This is not just a building, but a real manifesto of modernist architecture. As a Corbusian modernist architect, I did not invent the form of the building, but modulated it based on function. Textile interior design - studio Arte Domo.

Kirill Ovchinnikov

The name of the style comes from English. Modern - "modern, new." The movement arose in the architecture of the twentieth century, a turning point in content, associated with a decisive renewal of forms and structures, the rejection of the styles of the past.

The main representatives of architectural modernism are the pioneers of modern architecture Walter Gropius, Ludwig Mies van Der Rohe, Le Corbusier, Alvar Aalto, Oscar Niemeyer.

A house in the Indian metropolis of Surat. The strict concrete building of the owner, Indian businessman Parag Shah, was inspired by a visit to the local crematorium and the masterpieces of the Japanese architect Tadao Ando. The author of the project is the architect Gurjita Mataru.

Everything seems to be simple here: ideal proportions of the building, ideal joints of finishing materials, carefully thought-out viewpoints, built-in architectural lighting that creates an intriguing play of shadows, and furniture from recognized masters of design.

Romantic provence and mysterious gothic, vintage and crazy eclecticism for the Fine LivingRoom TV channels share ideas about the lifestyle of the country home and cottages

House dreams... How do we see it? Some people love the classic style, others are crazy about unusual interiors with a twist. What camp do you belong to? the new show "Repair for a Million" on Fine Living TV channel (on Saturdays at 22:00) will be to your taste. The host of the show will show the most luxurious interiors of country houses. To keep up with us, the Fine Living team has prepared a guide to the 5 best design solutions for a country house.

Fine Living - a dynamic mix of programs about a modern look life and foreign TV shows on the theme of design. Fine Living talks about travels, inspires new ideas for home improvement and simply puts the audience in a good mood.

1. Simplicity and comfort

If you want comfortable interior without unnecessary brightness and pathos, it is worth take a closer look at the Provence style. Aged furniture, forged details - the charm of antiquity and simple luxury. Do-it-yourself things fit well into such an environment, as well as compositions of dried flowers, bouquets of peonies and garden roses. Each of these elements will bring your own spirit and mood to the interior of the house.

2. Outrageous and provocation

When it comes to decorating a nursery or living room for noisy gatherings with friends, a bright room with lots of unusual details comes to mind. It is quite possible to implement such an idea under the roof of a country house - just pay attention to the pop art style. Within its framework, standard interior items become bright and expressive.

A big plus is that accent items can be budget-friendly. Active striped carpet or colorful pouffes - original interior can be created at low cost, having taste and imagination.

3. Vintage

Vintage includes everything that was fashionable in the 50s and 70s. AT vintage style has an interesting rule - the more accessories in the interior, the less bright color accents are required. Furniture must be natural wood and simple concise form. Bedroom headboard decoration can become wooden carved shutters or even an old door! An ideal style for subtle connoisseurs of things with their own special history.

4. Medieval lock

For those who dream of a real estate of lords, Gothic style created. Gothic is dominated by black, blue, dark red and brown. In addition to them, there are metal decor items: for example, a mirror in a gilded frame, forged candlesticks or a massive chandelier with imitation candles.

Tall cabinets and sideboards and chairs with high backs will also organically fit into the Gothic interior. And do not be afraid of excessive gloom and severity - a house with such a design easily turns into a mysterious one.
