Bjorn Wallander
Whether we're talking about fashion, food, or interior design, French style is simply iconic. French country kitchens, in particular, make us feel some kind of way. With colors taken straight out of the Provençal landscape, rustic accents, and that general je ne sais quoi, French country kitchens boast effortless elegance. Plus, if you emulate their style in your own home, every day will feel like a vacation in the South of France. Well, maybe not quite, but it's a close second. So take a mental vacation with these 27 French country–style kitchen tips.

Plenty of Blooms
Fill the room with flowers and opt for antique, classic vases for a French-country look. This geometric floor design personalizes the long, narrow galley kitchen.

Limewashed Cabinets
Custom limewashed poplar cabinetry and paneling, along with an imperial Danby marble backsplash, create an elegant atmosphere in the open kitchen cabinets in this eat-in kitchen designed by Jeffrey Dungan. The dining area brings in just enough contrast and looks contemporary while still channeling the French countryside.

Retro-Inspired Appliances
Consider an on-trend yet timeless color combination for a bold kitchen statement. Retro-inspired appliances are great way to balance out the more modern elements and give it a French-countryside feel.

Whimsical Embellishments
This barrel-vaulted ceiling provides the perfect softly curved backdrop for the whimsical lavender and pale peach mural by Michael Duté in this French country kitchen designed by Erin Martin.
The hood is also spruced up with an original Duté painting. The laidback materials and topiaries keep the sweet, romantic elements of the space grounded and welcoming (and very much channel Provence!).

Dainty Accents
Paint the floors a cheerful color, and then reflect it with accent pieces and linens throughout the space, like a skirted vanityty. We can smell the fresh croissants from here.

Island Substitute
Instead of an island, opt for a bonus surface space that can function as both a dining table and a prep counter. Wrought iron window frames (with matching pendants), metal grate cabinets, distressed paint, and wicker chairs all contribute to a French country feel.

Layers of Neutrals
In this kitchen by Michael Maher in a 1950s colonial revival, several neutral colors and materials are layered for subtle dimensions. Benjamin Moore's Jute is used on the walls while Farrow & Ball's Hardwick White is used on the cabinets and trims.
The gilt-framed still life painting and chandelier bring a dressier sensibility.

Eclectic Seating
Mix and match your seating for an eclectic farmhouse feel, and bring in pops of color with antique cabinetry and tableware. The woven pendant lamp adds a coastal flair, too. When it comes to choosing a backsplash, classic white subway tiles will never let you down.

Rustic Accents
Everything in this gorgeous kitchen designed by Nina Magon revolves around the existing cobblestone accent wall. Magon knew she wanted to give the kitchen a French Chaeteu vibe, which she accomplished with a Calcutta marble island, modern gunmetal Gabriel Scott pendants, and velvet cornflower blue stools. These glamorous pieces juxtapose with the French limestone floor tiles, scraggly stone walls, and exposed wood beams.

Market Bags
The kitchen is also a side entrance to this farmhouse, so designer Tom Scheerer secured hooks to the walls with plenty of reusable bags for fresh farmer's market produce.
How French!

Dramatic Ceilings
Designer Melanie Turner painted the lower cabinets of the kitchen island Midnight Blue by Benjamin Moore to match the upholstered stools and bring a touch of color. A nailhead trim nods to the rivets on the hood, and pale gray natural stone complements the blue tones, which are warmed up by the gold accents.

Colorful Tiles
Designer duo Thomas Jayne and William Cullem set out to give this kitchen a European country estate aesthetic. Dramatically high ceilings, whitewashed exposed beams, and custom mosaic tiles that gesture to the adjacent mint green room get the job done.

Reclaimed and Found Objects
This kitchen is the perfect balance between formal and laidback, thanks to designer Annie Brahler's skillful layering of antiques. The gilt antique mirror, chandelier, and decorative accents on the vintage demilune cabinets add some frill and pomp, while the reclaimed, distressed wood columns ground the room with an air of history and resilience.

A Regal Range
French country can be formal, too: It's all in the range. The floating kitchen island is a great place to work and also offers extra storage space.

High Ceilings
This French-country-inspired (hello, wrought-iron pendant) California kitchen feels like the perfect balance between classic, cozy, and refined. A light blue hue brings in color without overwhelming the senses.

Slipcovered Seats
The plaster walled kitchen in Thomas Rhett and Lauren Akinses’ Nashville retreat is what designer April Tomlin calls the "hub of the home." Family members gather around the double islands and get cozy on slipcovered counter stools. Antique light fixtures give it a French country flair. And if you'd rather keep the ceiling space clear but still want in on the hanging cookware trend, take note of this approach and hang them lower in front of the windows instead.

Rustic Bones
If you don't want to call the contractor to customize an island in the kitchen, bring in a long wood table that can double as a dining surface. Opt for open shelves for a casual look (and easy access to cookware) that really puts the spotlight on the rustic bones of your kitchen.

Grand Overtures
A long hanging pendant accentuates the high ceilings and plays on the fancy feel of this kitchen space, yet the farmhouse-style sink keeps it approachable.
William Abranowicz

Exposed Beams
Just beyond the island is a grand dining area enhanced by exposed beams. The long pendants accentuate the high ceilings, giving it an air that's equal parts formal and approachable.

Display Cabinets
Designer and architect Garrow Kedigian gave this NYC apartment kitchen a French country spin with display cabinets stacked with classic china, hanging copper cookware galore, and a cobalt La Cornue stove.
And, though you can't see them here, he also tucked two matching blue stools from the Paris Flea under the island.

Large Pendants
Here's a more modern take on the French-country kitchen look. Though it's contemporary and updated, the accents, like the gilt antique frame and simple greenery, introduce quintessential French-country character.
Paul Raeside

Antiques
It's all in the details. Crisp white paint pops against the exposed, aged brick wall. Even the cookware in this nook is perfectly French, as is that framed still life.
Jean Liu Design

Candelabra Lighting
Balance modern living with classic French country style by installing new appliances and settling on an efficient and simple layout, but then add some rustic-meets-dainty details, like an antique candelabra chandelier. This kitchen by Jean Liu is the perfect case study.
Laure Joliet

Exposed Beams
This kitchen by Reath Design leaves the bare bones (exposed beams, brick walls, and terracotta tiles) as-is but adds brassy accents, regal linens, and a gray marble sink with beautiful veining.

Casual Undertones
Keep things casual in your French-country-inspired kitchen. Though there's plenty of order in this space, it looks super low-maintenance and comfortable. The eclectic chairs in this eat-in kitchen introduce a touch of modern style.

Copper Pots And Pans
White painted bricks and stone tile floors are a great starting point for a French-country kitchen. Add wrought-iron hardware and hang copper pots and pans from it to finish things off.
Werner Straube

Labeled Jars and Crates
Labeled jars and an approachable color scheme accented by polished materials give this contemporary kitchen by Corey Damen Jenkins just a touch of French country–style pizzazz. Use vintage containers or label your own found items, like crates, for a similar look and streamlined storage.

20 Ways to Create a French Country Kitchen

If you love style that is warm, comfortable, and beautiful all at the same time, you’re likely a fan of French country designs. A French country kitchen is no different – in a place that has historically been the working-horse of the home, the kitchen designed in a French country style evokes a familiar, friendly feeling of traditional and somewhat simple life.
View in gallery
Some elements of a French country kitchen are also found in a farmhouse-style kitchen but don’t confuse the two. While farmhouse is clean-lined and tends toward a bit more contemporary version of rustic, French Country is all about a light and airy feeling that is a little feminine and definitely elegant, even if it’s not formal.
What Are the Main Style Elements of a French Country Kitchen?It’s about the CountrysideThe main inspiration for this style is right there in the name.
The design of homes outside of the main cities is less formal and ornate. The style might include traditional features but in a more relaxed way. Often French country style is drawn from the style found in the region of Provence.
French-style is always elegant but the country version adds a rustic twist. Instead of the fussier, ornate detailing and gilded elements found in more urban design, a French country kitchen will include toned-down versions. The overall feeling will be comfortable and lived it, yet have an air of refinement.
Nature Plays a Big RoleA French country kitchen uses plenty of natural materials and generally has a neutral palette. Exposed beams on the ceiling, stone elements – maybe even for the floor – and subtly distressed paint finishes give the entire kitchen a slightly weathered feeling. The accents will come in the form of botanical motifs and textiles that incorporate Provençal graphic prints.
Whereas farmhouse style uses a predominantly white or off-white palette with few colors, French country kitchens are all about warmth. While the base color may be a shade of white or cream, the rest of the kitchen focuses on warm shades of blue, red, yellow or green. Overall the goal of color in a French country kitchen is to create a warm atmosphere that fits the style
Plenty of Curves AheadSkip the more angular pieces associated with farmhouse style when creating your French country kitchen. Chair silhouettes, moldings and accents are generally curving and not linear. Experts say that Louis XVI chairs are the perfect example of French country style and are most associated with it. The rounded seat and back combine a wood frame with a comfortable seat. Remember that while the furniture may be distressed and have an aged feeling, the style is still all about comfort.
Lots of PatternsThe patterns traditionally found in French country homes are a must for a kitchen in this style and are generally used on textiles for the table, for example.
Some of the most common ones are gingham, plaid, toile and stripes. Decorations and motifs typically represent elements that you’ll find in the Provençal countryside: roosters, sunflowers, insects, olives and lavender
Minimalists beware because a French country kitchen will be big on accessories, which tend to span the range of old and new. Antique finds are mixed with colorful pieces and rustic baskets to create a lively but elegant space.
French Country Kitchen Design Ideas

Soft, pale colors are typically used in a French country kitchen, largely because these are colors taken from a provincial landscape. Think warm, soft, muted hues in earthy tones.{found on suemurphydesigns}.

The color palette of a French country kitchen tends to be soft and subdued. Because cabinetry tends to take up the most visual space in a kitchen, using warm surfaces and muted tones on the cabinets is a must for an authentic French country feel.

Crown molding framing the top of the kitchen’s cabinetry is often a component of the French country kitchen, adding a beautiful traditional element.{found on canterburydesign}.

Skirted cabinetry, particularly under the sink, is a traditional country- or farmhouse-style décor detail, and it can be found in French country kitchens as well.{found on faraboverubies}.

It makes sense that a décor style that takes its cues from countrified natural scapes would incorporate natural materials into its design. Stone, brick, and wood surfaces are plentiful in the French country kitchen.

Evocative of the times when large families and guests would gather around, French country kitchens will (whenever space permits) incorporate a large kitchen island. This not only aids in food preparation activities, but it also provides space for bringing lots of people together, guests and hosts alike.

Furniture-type details on the kitchen cabinetry and/or island increase the warmth and comfort of the kitchen itself.
Warmth and comfort. These are the essence of what a French country kitchen aspires to have.{found on reaumeconstruction}.

An island is indeed an important component to the French country kitchen. One way to highlight the feature is to make it a different color than the rest of the kitchen. Keep the same warm, muted palette, just add a contrast for visual interest.
View in gallery
Although the French country kitchen has few contemporary tendencies, as far as décor goes, there are still some subtle ways to introduce a more modern feel. For example, using darker woods or painted surfaces on, say, the island combines with the lighter surfaces of the rest of the kitchen in a more modern aesthetic.

A French country kitchen will often, although not always, incorporate a farmhouse- (or apron-) style sink into its design. Even amidst other elegant touches, this simple sink form looks perfectly at ease.

A luxurious detail but one that makes sense with the large-gathering focus of a French country kitchen is the wall-mounted pot filler faucet, installed above the stove.
This is a traditional feature that has disappeared in standard kitchens, but it’s quite useful for the family chef!

Traditionally, the hanging of cookware overhead was a purely functional decision. Today, the strategy of copper pots on display in the French country kitchen gets as much applause for its gorgeous form as for its function.{found on montanaaveinteriors}.

Outdoor- or lantern-style lighting is used seamlessly in a French country kitchen, due largely to its rustic, organic, yet hard-working aesthetic.
View in gallery
French country kitchens play upon the history of families gathering around the fireplace by designing stoves and/or other cooking spaces that are reminiscent of fireplaces. This is accomplished in a variety of ways, including the use of brick or stone around the stove, an archway, or decorative hood, for example.

Unique, decorative (and functional!) hoods abound in the décor and design of a French country kitchen.
And even if they didn’t…you couldn’t ever go wrong with a gorgeous copper number like this one.

For an automatic warm, country feel, use beadboard (or tongue-and-groove) facings on vertical surfaces. Ideas for beadboard placement include cabinet doors, kitchen island walls, or even the backsplash.{found on deborahgordondesigns}.
View in gallery
They don’t have to steal the show, but iron details (think cast iron or wrought iron touches) in a French country kitchen are a must. Iron appears to be used on much of the lighting here (the pendant lanterns and lighting flanking the kitchen sink), and it finishes off the whole look.

Exposed ceiling beams are not always possible to incorporate into the kitchen decorated in French country style. They are not necessary for a successful warm, stylish look, either, but the exposed wooden ceiling beams are certainly icing on the French country cake!

A warm and welcoming feel is one of the main components of a French country kitchen, although it is a harder one to quantify.
Incorporating a variety of textures and textiles while keeping the color palette warm and light is a good rule of thumb.

French, Italian and American kitchen design trends 01/28/2022 We tell you how Western designers design kitchen sets - these examples will inspire you to create your ideal kitchen. A word to the designer of the Kitchen Factory: in many ways were pioneers in kitchen design! So, for example, the concept of a “working triangle” was introduced into use by American Lilian Gilbert at 1910th. - she had 12 children, and she tried to arrange her life as conveniently as possible. BUT the French and Italians have contributed a lot of ideas on how to create the perfect kitchen, where it would be convenient to cook and receive guests, even if you do not have a very large area of \u200b\u200bthe apartment. France: aesthetic kitchens for very small spacesContrary to our stereotype, the coolest design ideas from Paris are not about luxury and splendor, but about a lifestyle for ordinary people. The fact is that the bulk of Parisians live in very small apartments - and rarely where kitchens are more than 4-6 square meters. And if they are combined with the living room, then the total area will be 16-18 squares maximum. Here are the main ideas that the world borrowed from French cuisine:
The word to the designer of the "Kitchen Factory": The French cook tasty and with pleasure. However, they usually keep quite a few utensils and dishes for serving - but it will be sure to be stylish. Therefore, they will drink wine from the same glasses on an ordinary Friday evening and at Christmas. The example of the French is valuable in how you can organize the whole “kitchen story” beautifully, even if you live in a modest apartment. This is also true for Russia: after all, if there is an apartment of 40-50 square meters in the historical part of St. Italy: shine and clean linesAverage Italian kitchens are 8-10 square meters in size. Italians love closed storage systems and choose the most calm, natural colors for facades. What else came to us from Italian cuisines?
A word from the Kitchen Factory designer: “Italian kitchens are bigger and more garish in design, not by bright colors, but by adding glitter to fronts, a sumptuous dining table or silk curtains. In general, Italians often design kitchen sets that do not look like kitchens, especially since it is customary for them to gather guests in the kitchen, which is why it should look impressive and luxurious.” Example: three kitchen-inspired projects from Italy America: colonial spaceIn English, the American style of interior design and architecture is called "colonial style". Most American families live in houses, not apartments (with the exception of those who live closer to business centers). Their kitchens are spacious, 15-20 square meters each. This ease in the organization of space is reflected in everything:
A word from the Kitchen Factory designer: “We recommend looking at American kitchen designs if the kitchen space is larger than 16-18 square meters. Fact: American kitchens look very stylish and reasonable in such an area. Example: three projects based on US tradition. A word to the designer of the Kitchen Factory: “Competent borrowing of ideas allows you to design your own unique kitchen that will not get bored and will not go out of fashion - and it is all the more important that France, Italy and the USA offer projects for rooms of completely different sizes (and, respectively, budgets). Sign up for measurements, we will definitely help you create the kitchen of your dreams. 01/28/2022 01/28/2022 Share return to list Subscribe to our newsletter, 02/06/2022 Facades of milky shades: how to combine so that it does not turn out boring Solutions for those who want a bright kitchen, but are afraid that white will quickly get bored.

From hotel furniture to all 
But The French are very fond of cooking and hosting guests. In addition, life is unthinkable for them without observing small beautiful rituals (for example, they always dress for dinner). Therefore, French designers pay a lot attention to how to create a spectacular, stylish and cozy space for cooking and socializing in a small area. 
Petersburg, not everyone wants to lose the whole atmosphere of the city and move to a new building for the sake of increasing the area. Example: three projects inspired by French cuisines. 
Or, on the contrary, it can be contrasting black in relation to light facades. 
But the shade should be complex - black-blue, brown-gray and so on. White facades are also possible, but they must be strictly matte. 
If you install a kitchen with narrow and smooth facades in a large room, it will look pale and uncomfortable. Panels, large storage compartments, classic handles - all this provides a confident and stylish look for large American kitchens.
