What Is a Farmhouse Style?

There are many home styles out there, but the Farmhouse style is one of the coziest ones. This style creates a homey and calming atmosphere in a house by using lighter and muted colors, as well as natural materials like hardwood and stone. This style brings simple and clean aesthetics, making interiors look airier and more spacious due to the use of lighter colors.

All About Modern Farmhouse Design Style

However, it doesn’t mean you can’t use darker colors for this home style! On the contrary, the Farmhouse home style welcomes black and dark greens or dark blue colors as well! You just need to ensure you don’t use too much of them to avoid making the space look too “heavy.”

This home style uses neutral color palettes, which is why all the colors are mostly muted and calm, with balanced tones and moderate light reflectivity. Also, you will hardly find bright and juicy colors in such homes. However, a Farmhouse interior does not look washed out! Thanks to quite a wide variety of colors used in it, it can still create a vivid and pleasant atmosphere with different colors.
