34 Farmhouse Style Kitchens - Rustic Decor Ideas for Kitchens

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!

Simple melodies on banjo and harmonica, cowboys in wide-brimmed hats, plaid shirts, trousers with fringes - the first associations that arise when mentioning the country in most of the us.

This word is translated from English as rural, country, peasant. This direction is used not only in music, but also in clothing. Understanding the definition has long gone beyond music and ranch, becoming synonymous with the word "ethnic", "folk". This stylistic direction is multifaceted.

Fashion for ethnic motifs in the design of suburban and urban housing has come to Russia only at the beginning of the 21st century.

RUSSIAN COUNTRY - COUNTRY RUSSIAN STYLE

The warmth of a Russian hut, fragments of epics and legends about heroes, elements borrowed from cultures other peoples living on the territory of Russia are mixed in this unique, interesting, original direction.

HISTORY OF RUSSIAN COUNTRY STYLE

Since ancient times, the stove has been the central object of the Russian hut. She had a "baby" or "furnace corner" - shelves with kitchen utensils, tongs. It was female half, where they were engaged in needlework, raising children, singing, cooking and washing. From in the female corner, the bride went out to the bridegroom.

The furniture was simple and consisted of a table, fixed and movable benches, large benches with backs.

To the right of the entrance was a "konik" - or male half. Here on a wide bench a bed was arranged, and tools were stored under the bench. This place was called Konik because a wooden fence covering the bed from prying eyes. Each board in the fence often was shaped like a horse's head.

The warmest and brightest - the "red" corner served to receive guests. Here icons hung, embroidered towels (towels), a dining area was usually equipped.

Products in this style feel great in modern interiors, where the emphasis is on simplicity and comfort.

COUNTRY STYLE CAFE AND BARS INTERIOR

Country style is not only suitable for interiors of residential buildings. Remember the saloons in the Wild West, without which does not a single western or films, which show the decoration of a European tavern, cost? In such institutions, always there was massive, solid furniture, designed for noisy companies of musketeers, guardsmen, cowboys or hussar.

Many modern restaurants and cafes are styled by their owners in antique style, choosing as a "theme" the interior of an American saloon, a Ukrainian tavern or a Russian tavern of the 18th century, which in those days was called a "tavern of food" or "tavern".

Unusual, "historical" or "folk" decor of the establishment invariably attracts visitors, gives aesthetic pleasure.

These textured, colorful pieces of furniture and decor for restaurants and cafes are made by Rusichi Artel. In each collection of works of the workshop, massive carved tables, benches, thrones, chairs made of natural tree.

MASSIVE ANTIQUE TABLES

Craftsmen make tables from 1.5 to 4 meters long. They will find a place both in small cafes and in banquet halls of restaurants. Tabletops for all models are 8 cm thick and a massive underframe.

Dining groups are decorated with carvings, three-dimensional inscriptions in the Slavic style (folk sayings and proverbs on table topics).

The design and impressive dimensions of these products impress visitors and create a special atmosphere at the table and even serve as the subject of discussion and debate.

CHAIRS, ARMCHAIRS, BENCHES, THRONES FROM SOLID WOOD

No less brutal wooden chairs with high backs, beautiful, to match the tables - artel workers' pride. Comfortable tilt, optimal back height, good seating and impressive legs not only emphasize the style of the establishment, but also provide guests with proper comfort.

Armchairs and Thrones are an excellent solution for small banquet halls where small, but sincere companies. Sitting comfortably in a wooden designer chair and having a lively conversation, you can lose track of time. Pillows on chairs - a way to dilute the brutality of the interior soft, literally and figuratively, notes.

Benches are another comfortable type of seating that fits perfectly into summer decor. cafe sites, and in the decoration of the main hall of the institution.

COUNTRY STYLE DECOR

Wheels, half-barrels and barrels, beams for ceiling and wall decoration, bar counters and shelves for drinks, inscriptions, tablets - far from a complete list of the author's works of the "Russians", created for restaurants and cafe.

Whatever style of country you choose for your interior of your establishment, the masters of the artel will have something to offer you for decorating a Russian restaurant, Georgian, Armenian, European cuisine.

MODERN COUNTRY IN THE INTERIOR OF APARTMENT

It is difficult to recreate pure, refined country music in a modern city apartment. Lots of finishing materials, furniture, household appliances and decor has a technological, modern look. Nevertheless, this does not mean that in a city apartment or a country house you will not be able to recreate the atmosphere of the Alpine vzgoriy, Russian hut or American ranch.

An example of a harmonious combination of modern and ethnic styles using furniture Artel "Rusichi" demonstrated in one of the episodes of the TV show "Fazenda". Possibly a video https://yadi.sk/i/TnclDWUMtUrjBg will be a source of ideas for you to decorate the interior of your home.

COUNTRY KITCHENS AND DINING

Country kitchen - modular furniture with unpainted wooden fronts. Facades look good carving, lattice facades. Sincerity and simplicity of style are emphasized by open shelves with dishes. They same - an excellent solution for small rooms, where massive furniture practically does not leave free space.

Household appliances in such a kitchen are built-in. It is hidden behind wooden facades, so in such “folk-village” environment will be quite comfortable with the latest model dishwasher, refrigerator, oven. Although they will not be visible, you will be able to enjoy the benefits of advanced technologies on merit.

If the kitchen has room for a dining group, a massive wooden a table for 4 persons and chairs that match the design.

Don't be afraid to use wood in your kitchen! Moisture, steam and splashes of grease are not afraid of wooden countertops, tables and chairs. Treatment with protective oils makes the wood practically invulnerable, does not harm environmental friendliness of the material. Kitchen tables made of wood can be used without a tablecloth and washed daily without any damage to the surface.

BEDROOMS IN ETHNIC STYLE

The central “figure” in this room is a solid wood bed. It can be installed in a niche, "beaten" with the help of panels, decor from a block house or planken. Another attribute of the bedroom - dressing table or chest of drawers. Light carved chest of drawers "antique" - an excellent addition to the room. The main thing is that they are made in the same style as the bed.

COUNTRY LIVING

In the living room, fans of country music will find where to roam! In the design of this room, there are 2 win-win options:

In both cases, a harmonious combination of modern urban and rustic interiors in one room. Textiles and decor in the form of blankets, pillows, needlework will create an atmosphere of comfort.

The spacious living room can be conditionally divided into two halves with the help of decorative beams. One half to make a dining area, a study, allocate a place for children's games, and in the other - a zone rest with upholstered furniture and TV. This design technique is called zoning.

COUNTRY STYLE HALLWAY

The hallway is a small room that precedes the entrance to the residential part of the house. This room usually has hangers for outerwear, shelves for bags and hats, shoes. Brutal wooden furniture (original hangers instead of a wardrobe, a small wooden shoebox), a mirror in a frame made of brushed wood, an intricate cowboy-style lamp on the ceiling, painted walls and plank floor - this could be your hallway country.

WHO IS COUNTRY STYLE SUITABLE AND WHAT TO FOCUS ON?

Ethnostyle suits everyone without exception. It is chosen by people of different professions, beliefs and views of the world, different nationalities. It is suitable for everyone who appreciates simple, good-quality things "with soul", and bright and fashionable novelties prefers comfort and simplicity, never losing its relevance.

The only "limitation" in interior design in style country - the size of the living area. Massive wooden furniture requires a sufficient amount of free spaces in the room. The way out is the production of tables, beds, cabinets to order in accordance with the dimensions and room layout.

STYLE ACCENTS

Working on the design of living rooms, designers use such an approach as accentuation, that is, highlighting the main elements and supplementing them with secondary details that emphasize the main stylistic line.

The main accent in the country interior is the thematic direction that you have chosen (Russian, English, French). All items of furniture and decor are selected as close as possible to this theme.

Each room should have its own main (accent) detail: a fireplace in the living room, a dining group in dining room, bed in the bedroom, setting the tone for the interior of the room.

COUNTRY INTERIOR TIPS

Get ready to absorb new knowledge!

Some tips from professional designers:

  1. If the walls are light, choose furniture in darker, more saturated colors. Dark walls and walls light furniture is suitable from wood.
  2. Eliminate chrome, shiny, glass, plastic, and linoleum.
  3. Please note that country furniture should not perform many functions, transform. The dining table is a dining table, not a school desk, a place for cutting fabrics or other household chores.

Curtains on the windows, bedspreads on beds, starched valance (frilled fabric that covers the bottom of the bed), homemade rugs, decorative pillows, handmade napkins. All this looked simple, gave the house comfort and more than appropriate in the modern interpretation of country music.
  6. To save money, use tiles imitating natural stone in the kitchen and around the fireplace, and for finishing the area around the fireplace portal tile "a la brick-chamotte".
  7. A colorful decoration of the kitchen - the dishes that you use. Avoid shiny, silicone and plastic types of utensils. Give preference to monophonic (you can bright, but not flashy colors) deep and small plates, cast iron pans, wicker baskets. Hang dishes on the wall or place them on shelves.
  8. The main principle in furnishing, selection of finishes and accessories is your convenience.

Ethnic style sets the direction for your imagination. Surely you have childhood memories of a trip to village. Give them free rein, and your home will be filled with beauty and comfort!

Country interiors appeared in 1920s - This style "grew" from the design of traditional American farmhouses. Country music gained massive popularity in the 1970s, when, due to a surge in urbanization, people tired of life in large cities were drawn to nature and country life. The style embodies precisely these values ​​- simplicity and naturalness.

Country style, based on traditional rustic elements, enhanced with quality finishes and stylized vintage decor.

Country music has several varieties, depending on the region of origin. The most popular styles are Provence (French Country), Chalet (Swiss), English, German and Italian Country. In recent years, even Russian country music has appeared, which borrows elements of the decoration of traditional village huts. But most often, country style means the American version.

Country style in the interior

It is important to understand that country is not strictly a rustic style. It is rather an adaptation of some stylistic devices from rural life.

The best place to embody country is a country house, where open floor plans and plenty of space for massive furniture are acceptable. In country-style apartments, you will have to make room because of large interior items, but some elements can be successfully entered into an urban interior.

1. Natural materials

Since the style draws its inspiration from country life, objects and decor made of artificial materials, deliberately futuristic colors and shapes, will be out of place in such an interior.

When choosing furniture and textiles, it is worth sticking to the materials that can be seen on the farm: wood, cotton and linen, wool carpets, wicker or rattan items, ceramics. If you want to use plastic items (for example, for the sake of economy), it is better to prefer imitation of natural materials.

2.

Natural colors

The same rule applies to colors. In country, shades that can be easily found in nature are most often used: tones of green, brown, beige, white.

Gamma may vary by region. The further south the country, the more saturated colors can be found in nature: in Italian country, bright blue, yellow, and red are acceptable, and in Spanish there is a place for terracotta and turquoise.

Bright colors can be added with floral textiles (curtains, tablecloths, placemats, sofa cushions) and ceramics (dishes, tiles, countertops in the kitchen and bathroom).

3. Massive wooden furniture

It is difficult to place a lot of bulky furniture in a city apartment. When choosing elements, it is important to exclude objects of mixed functionality - built-in wardrobes or folding sofas are not suitable for country music.

4. Warm and natural light

In a country house, you rarely see a stretch ceiling with built-in lights. So country is characterized by an abundance of natural light, large windows, and even artificial light should remain warm. Evening light is best made muted due to lampshades and point placement.

You can choose vintage lamps, the optimal lighting scheme is multi-level. It is better to forget about fluorescent lamps "drowned" in plasterboard structures.

Such tricks in the country will not work. But wooden floor lamps with fabric lampshades and chandeliers in the form of chandeliers with wrought iron elements will look good.

Living in nature is characterized by the presence of a source of fire directly in the house. It can be a fireplace, a stove or an abundance of candles.

Depending on the chosen region, you can use the appropriate colors: Vichy check for France, openwork napkins for Italy, ornaments with garden flowers for England. Traditional embroidery on napkins is well suited. When decorating windows, it is better to avoid heavy structures - curtains with tails and lambrequins. On the contrary, shortened versions of curtains are often used in country music, which do not fall below the window sill.
