31 Country Kitchen Ideas To Fall In Love With
Neptune, deVOL, Olive & Barr
In creating a country-inspired home, the country kitchen is arguably the most important element. And whilst architectural details – high ceilings, wooden beams, and draughty windows with an expansive view out over the countryside – certainly help, they are in no way essential to creating your dream country kitchen.
There are a few hard and fast rules to a country design scheme, such as using shaker cabinets, employing natural materials wherever possible, and displaying piles of crockery and table linen, but country style can run the gamut from modern rustic and traditional, to quaint and cottagecore.
Read on for our round-up of the best country kitchen ideas to fall in love with...

Country kitchens ideas: Sage green hues
Refresh and revive your country kitchen with uplifting hues of green. This kitchen from Neptune combines timber ceiling panels with soft sage green walls and cabinets. And it's the most beautiful space. We love the little arched window above the sink to peer out of when washing the dishes.

Country kitchens ideas: Florals
Nothing beats flowers for putting the ‘country’ into kitchens. An abundance of dainty florals has a lovely enveloping effect, creating the signature cosiness of a country kitchen and softening an otherwise functional space.

Country kitchens ideas: White and wood
This rustic countryside kitchen combines warm, off-white walls and woodwork with rough and raw wood and classic flagstones. Using natural materials is one of the best ways to bring the outside in — especially if your wood still retains its knots and grains. One of our favourites.

Country kitchens ideas: the 'bootility' room
The 'bootility' room is a hybrid utility-boot room full of handsome cabinetry and clever storage solutions.
A bootility serves to bridge the gap between indoors and out, preventing outdoor dirt from entering the kitchen, as well as holding bulky white goods, utility products, and everyday family clutter.

Country kitchens ideas: the kitchen island
A country kitchen is the heart of the home, where family can gather to eat, entertain and spend time together. A spacious island is perhaps one of the best ways to bring everyone together. It's the focal point of any kitchen and enables meals to be tested, children to do homework, and conversations to be had — all in one lovely central space.

Country kitchens ideas: Kitchen larders
Store away fresh produce, cans and kitchen utensils with an incredibly handy corner larder, like our very own Country Living Whitstable Larder at Homebase. How brilliant to hide away extra items and free up counter space for cooking – no country kitchen is complete without one.

Country kitchens ideas: Brick walls
Quintessential country styles often feature raw materials, here in the form of exposed brick. Creating a feature wall – painted in a fresh cream or left as a classic red brick – is a great way to soften more contemporary kitchens.

In a country kitchen, the devil is in the details.

Country kitchens ideas: Striking wooden features
High ceilings and expansive walls are a gift when creating a country kitchen, and the addition here of interesting wooden beams gives the feeling of a converted barn. With clean lines and a minimal colour palette, this is proof that country kitchens don't always have to err on the side of traditional.

Country kitchens ideas: Small kitchens
A country kitchen doesn't have to be expansive with high ceilings and wooden beams. A quaint galley kitchen can have all the hallmarks of a country home, if you embrace shaker cabinets, touches of greenery – in the form of dried herbs or small plotted plants – and, importantly, a display of pots, pans, enamelware and table linen.

Country kitchens ideas: Wood-burning stoves
Warm up bitterly cold days with a wood-burning stove that's perfect for a large country kitchen. This style from Morso would be brilliant for the winter months and even better for toasting marshmallows when guests come to visit. We love the idea of keeping a pile of freshly cut logs nearby.

Country kitchens ideas: Classic grey
Whilst grey might be considered a contemporary kitchen colour, a soft slate grey makes a great base palette for a country kitchen. Keep your cabinetry traditional, and display white enamelware and rustic wood accessories to get the most out of classic grey tones.

Country kitchens ideas: Traditional cabinetry
This smart country kitchen by Tom Howley embraces traditional cabinetry, but also has a more modern feel.
The under-sink storage provides a practical place to tidy away extra plates, cups and utensils. "Finishing touches underline the design of a classically country kitchen," says Tom Howley, Creative Design Director at Tom Howley. "Cornices, skirting boards and columns or pillars are the final elements of the design. They bring the kitchen together, and are carefully designed to distinguish country kitchens from their more modern counterparts."

Country kitchens ideas: Stone flooring
A classic country kitchen feature, stone flooring is a super practical choice for high traffic family kitchens. This dark and dramatic cellar kitchen by Plain English uses handsome cream-coloured slabs to offset the traditional burgundy kitchen island. If you use real stone flooring, rather than a replica vinyl for instance, add a hardy jute rug for a bit of warmth underfoot.

Country kitchens ideas: Interest underfoot
A good quality vinyl should be one of your go-to choices of flooring in a high-traffic kitchen.
For a country kitchen, have a bit of fun by offsetting more traditional architectural details and shaker cabinets with some interesting pattern and colour.

Country kitchens ideas: Go green
No other kitchen colour can evoke countryside scenes quite as well as green. Tom Howley, Design Director at the eponymous kitchen company, says: ‘Green kitchens are having something of a moment right now. As a colour we associate primarily with nature, this grounding shade has an incredible way of reconnecting us with our surroundings, creating moments of calm and positivity.'

Country kitchens ideas: Display your wares
In a country kitchen, accessories and trinkets are usually displayed – sometimes neatly, and sometimes in a charming disarray.
Open or glass-fronted display units can store pans, crockery, and linens, rustic apple crates or willow baskets, and and saves valuable drawer space.

Country kitchens ideas: Colourful cabinets
Nothing will brighten your country kitchen quite as effectively as a splash of paint on your cabinets. If you're brave, embrace deep greens, turquoise blues and reds, and keep your base palette on your walls and floors a soft neutral.

Country kitchens ideas: Exposed metalwork
Country style tends to embrace exposed materials – plaster on the walls, wooden beams, stone flooring – but in the absence of any of those, an easy way to achieve this look is with metalwork.
We love the exposed copper piping here, matched with wall-mounted railings for displaying spoons and pots.

From reclaimed wood to timeless antiques, there are countless ways to amp up your kitchen's country style.
By Jenae Sitzes
Duanne Simon
Thanks in very large part to farmhouse style whisperer Joanna Gaines, the Fixer Upper aesthetic is no mere fad. In fact, "farmhouse style" has become synonymous with "classic." Rustic touches like well-worn antiques, reclaimed and repurposed treasures, and crisp white shiplap walls are showing up in homes all over the United States—including those that are nowhere near the country range. And while you can easily pull off farmhouse style in any room of the house, farmhouse kitchens—with their ruff-hewn open concept shelving, vibrant painted cabinetry, apron or skirt-fronted sinks, and collections galore—are by far the most coveted type of this interior style.
So how do you get one of your own? Do you have to move to a wide-open space and make a farm-sized investment to pull off that charming kitchen of your own? Absolutely not. The beauty of the farmhouse aesthetic is that it's simple—you can start small with a few gallons of eye-catching paint and a well-loved vintage table and eventually work your way up to shiplapped backsplashes and exposed wood beams. Even better: It works well whether you live in a big-city condo, suburban track home, or small-town cabin—maybe too well. Explore our list of 34 farmhouse kitchen ideas to create the perfect kitchen that's filled with flair, function, and rustic vibes. Good luck getting party guests to hang out anywhere else after pulling together such a warm and welcoming space!

Pecky Cypress
Fans of reclaimed wood, here's a new kitchen trend you'll want to keep your eyes on: pecky cypress, seen here on the island and hood.
This grainy type of wood is known for its long pocketing and striations. Orb lights also help soften a kitchen with lots of straight lines and sharp edges.

Exposed Shelving
Rustic wood looks even more lovely against crisp white walls and dishes. The owner of this northern California home used Douglas fir for the shelving and redwood for the farm table. Exposed shelving and hanging pots are classic features of a country kitchen.

Vintage Sink
This couple embraced the history of their 18th-century farmhouse by filling it with antiques, and in the kitchen, that translates to a vintage porcelain double farm sink and a display of gorgeous antique dishes. Other small touches, like the faded checkered rug and storage baskets under the sink, add to the rustic style.

Old Country Charm
A much-needed renovation replaced wallpaper and dark cabinets with an open, welcoming space that utilizes a mix of materials, from aged zinc on the countertops and hood to reclaimed wood on the island and walls.
The owner of this 100-year-old Texas farmhouse has modern appliances hidden away inside the island, and the antique filing cabinet by the stove adds even more country charm.

Country style kitchen design (+55 photos) – Interior ideas
Translated from English, “country” means countryside, but even in the center of the metropolis, a kitchen decorated in this style will give a relaxed atmosphere of a ranch, cozy cottage or country estate.
The inspiration for such an interior can be found in American westerns and traditional rural culture, borrowing from them natural simplicity, solidity and convenience. If you approach the design of a country-style kitchen with a soul, then the result will bring you the most positive emotions!
Highlights of country style
Rustic business card - natural materials. Roughly crafted wood and stone, solid solid furniture, wickerwork and earthenware are the basis of the interior, while cute trinkets, rustic textiles and vintage decor give it a lived-in look.
The natural harmony of natural textures and shades contributes to relaxation - in such an environment, problems and hardships are quickly forgotten, and instead of them there is a mood to cook a delicious cake or arrange a festive dinner. It is pleasant to touch matte wooden surfaces, they exude home comfort.
Country style is very practical, you want to spend as much time as possible in it, feeling the calm regularity of country life.
Colors
Brown country style kitchen
At the mention of a rural house, wooden walls and antique furniture in brown tones immediately appear.
The color of chocolate, from bitter to milky, is simply irreplaceable in country style. Even if the kitchen is entirely made in light colors, it should still contain at least minimal dark accents. For example, the surface of the tabletop or the upholstery of chairs can be brown. At the same time, harsh black in a rustic interior is out of place.
Country white kitchen
Instead of a cold snow-white shade, the country uses slightly diluted matte tones: milky, cream, vanilla, light beige and sand.
Walls or ceilings are often painted white, kitchen furniture is often presented in this color - but, unlike the classical design, neither carved curls nor golden frames adorn the facades.
Country green kitchen
The life-affirming color of grass and leaves looks as organic as possible next to natural wood.
Green walls and textiles wonderfully emphasize the texture of solid wood furniture.
Delicate olive, mint and emerald shades are usually chosen for kitchen sets, for which the best complement is beige or gray of equal saturation.
Red country style kitchen
Red kitchen is a bold and unusual solution, but in country style it looks quite calm. Matte lingonberry, terracotta and burgundy tones look great on the facades of the headset, they are elegantly repeated in the small pattern of textiles, dishes and decor.
The ideal background for such rich furniture will be white or light wood color.
Kitchen finishing in country style
Until the end of the 20th century, natural materials were the only ones available for home improvement. Now, when plastics and polymers are gradually replacing them, the once simple wood, limestone, vine and clay have gained elite status - often the price of such an eco-friendly design exceeds even cutting-edge high-tech.
However, it is possible to equip a country-style kitchen even with a limited budget, especially since high-quality natural finishes will subsequently last for decades.
Floor
It is impossible to imagine a rustic kitchen without a plank floor. To increase the life of a parquet board, it should be coated with a matte varnish or moisture-proof oil impregnation.
A more practical finish is white or brown tiles, as well as porcelain stoneware imitating stone or wood.
In a small kitchen, it is better to make the floor plain or checkerboard, using small tiles (10x10 cm).
Walls
Moisture-resistant coatings and materials should be used to finish the walls in the kitchen. In country style, decorative “chipped” stone, ceramic and clinker tiles are ideal for this purpose. If desired, they can only be lined with an apron, and the rest of the walls can be left for painting, upholstery with wooden clapboard (in extreme cases, with plastic wood-like panels) or wallpapering.
Even in rustic design, textured plaster with the effect of antiquity, brick and stone masonry, wallpaper with floral ornaments, patchwork tiles, and mosaics with pastoral scenes will be appropriate.
Ceiling
The ceiling in a country-style kitchen is usually decorated with wooden beams. If the height of the room allows, then you can use false MDF beams. Hollow inside, they will help hide the wiring and will not hang menacingly over your head.
In small kitchens, it is better to simply whitewash the ceiling or paint it with white water-based paint. If a stretch film is used, it must be matte, as light as possible.
Textile
Rustic coziness is inconceivable without beautiful light fabrics. Curtains, tablecloths, napkins, kitchen towels, upholstery of chairs - all this gives the interior of a country-style kitchen a very nice homely look.
Chintz, cotton and linen are traditional for this style of design. However, given how difficult it is to care for these materials, it is better to give preference to synthetic imitations, which are easier to wash off stains, do not wrinkle and do not fade in the sun.
Country kitchen will be decorated with textiles with small floral patterns, as well as checks or polka dots. Ruffles, lace, ruffles, ribbons and bows are welcome.
Country style kitchen furniture
Beautiful country-style kitchen furniture is sometimes found in elite salons, and its price is quite high. But you can always find a compromise, for example, turn to craftsman carpenters, restore antiques, or do it yourself.
Kitchen set
The headset, which at first glance gives the impression of reliability, durability and rough simplicity, is very likely to belong to the country style. It can be made of solid wood, MDF or chipboard, with a unique wood texture or painted, but it is always solid functionality without any frills.
The facades of the set can be decorated with simple geometric carvings, diamond-shaped grilles or perforations. Doors are always with handles, the old fashioned way. Fittings are used mainly copper, brass or iron.
The hood can close the facade to match the rest of the wall design or in the form of a chimney.
As for the placement rules, for a small country-style kitchen, it is better to choose a high, but narrow, L- or U-shaped. In a large space, you can afford an island option, when a place in the center is reserved for a functional high table.
Dining area
Furniture for a rustic dining area is a traditional rectangular or round wooden table, stable chairs with high backs or a massive bench. Hammered metal elements, wickerwork from rattan or wicker are possible. Seats are often upholstered in soft fabric with a floral pattern or brown leather.
In a small kitchen, the function of a dining table can be played by a folding shelf mounted vertically on the wall, a large window sill or other device.
Storage systems
In a country-style kitchen, it is not necessary to hide everything behind blank facades. Beautiful crystal and painted ceramic sets will only decorate the interior, being behind a glass partition; for pans and improvised appliances, you can make wooden hangers with hooks - so they will always be at hand.
Open shelves, no matter how attractive they may seem, are rather impractical - dust, grease and moisture particles will accumulate on the objects placed there. Therefore, most products and kitchen utensils are best placed in closed cabinets, drawers, mounted on hooks or magnets on the inside of the doors. It will be more convenient to store plates and lids vertically in special grids, rather than stacking them.
Separately, organizer boxes should be provided for various small things, cutlery or spices. You can store vegetables, bread and other food in a rustic kitchen in pull-out wicker baskets or slatted pallets.
Country style kitchen decor
Old things from grandma's attic are ideal for rustic style: a cuckoo clock, a wooden chest with metal corners (by the way, a fairly roomy storage system for stocks of flour, sugar and cereals), an oil lamp, antique stove tiles (any of them looks like a work of art). art and can be used as a panel), embroidered towels or crocheted napkins.
Any wooden, wicker and forged decorations can also become a highlight of the interior. Do not neglect hand-painted wall plates in folk style, earthenware, figurines of domestic animals and birds. All this can be easily found at fairs or ordered online.
How to arrange lighting?
When choosing lighting fixtures for a country-style kitchen, you should avoid cutting-edge options. Spotlights, neon ribbons, fluorescent lamps with their cold white or bluish light are best left for high-tech. In a rustic style, soft yellowish light from spot diodes, discreetly mounted above work surfaces, will look much better.
As for the chandelier, it is advisable to choose it in the form of antique wrought iron candlesticks, but simple white, "lace" and even stained glass shades are also quite suitable.

Sophisticated Nostalgia Kitchen in Deer Park
Advance Design Studio, Ltd.
When this suburban family decided to renovate their kitchen, they knew that they wanted a little more space. Advance Design worked together with the homeowner to design a kitchen that would work for a large family who loved to gather regularly and always ended up in the kitchen! So the project began with extending out an exterior wall to accommodate a larger island and more moving-around space between the island and the perimeter cabinetry. Style was important to the cook, who began collecting accessories and photos of the look she loved for months prior to the project design. She was drawn to the brightness of whites and grays, and the design accentuated this color palette brilliantly with the incorporation of a warm shade of brown woods that originated from a dining room table that was a family favorite.
Classic gray and white cabinetry from Dura Supreme hits the mark creating a perfect balance between bright and subdued. Hints of gray appear in the bead board detail peeking just behind glass doors, and in the application of the handsome floating wood shelves between cabinets. White subway tile is made extra interesting with the application of dark gray grout lines causing it to be a subtle but noticeable detail worthy of attention. Suede quartz Silestone graces the countertops with a soft matte hint of color that contrasts nicely with the presence of white painted cabinetry finished smartly with the brightness of a milky white farm sink. Old melds nicely with new, as antique bronze accents are sprinkled throughout hardware and fixtures, and work together unassumingly with the sleekness of stainless steel appliances. The grace and timelessness of this sparkling new kitchen maintains the charm and character of a space that has seen generations past. And now this family will enjoy this new space for many more generations to come in the future with the help of the team at Advance Design Studio.
