Farmhouse Kitchen Designs

A farmhouse kitchen design blends a multitude of styles such as country, cottage, rustic and traditional that take one back to a simpler time. Modeled after early American living, the style reflects the lifestyle of those who lived in rural communities with craftsman finishes and warm and inviting colors. Here are some of the ways you can create a farmhouse kitchen design in your home:

Farmhouse kitchen islands – Known as the workhorse of the kitchen these surfaces are used to cook and prepare food on. In addition, metal, wood or upholstered stools can be pulled up to the island for eat-in dining. Farmhouse islands are often painted in pastels and warm colors to give a real homey touch to the space.

Open shelving and glass door cabinets – Many classic farmhouse kitchens have open wall mounted shelving along with glass door cabinets. One way to incorporate an open shelving style in your home is to remove some of the doors. You can also consider replacing upper cabinets with floating type shelves. These can also be paired with Shaker cabinets which are a popular choice for this style.

Farmhouse kitchen sinks – These sinks are big and can be used for a variety of purposes from scrubbing pots, to cleaning clothing and even washing the baby. Also known as an “Apron front sink” they offer a deep basin that sticks out slightly from the surrounding cabinetry. These sinks have risen in popularity over the years and are now highly sought after in traditional and contemporary kitchen designs alike.

Butcher block countertops – These wood countertops bring a natural feeling to the kitchen and look great. They are a great way to bring some character to your space, are durable and can be used to provide contrast next to stainless steel appliances.

Natural lighting – A light and bright kitchen area can really raise the mood and help one appreciate the rich details of this design. The more natural light you can let in the better you’ll appreciate the bright and cheery environment.

Beadboard walls, cabinets and islands – These striped wood panels definitely fit in to the farmhouse style and provide a clean and uncluttered look to your room. Beadboard can be used on walls, cabinets and islands to give you instant vintage elegance.

Combining wood with wood, the wood countertop is supported by a plinth of distressed green wood, which is further accented by the heavy wooden bench and hardwood flooring.

White Farmhouse Kitchen

Painted in white, this cathedral ceiling open-style living and kitchen area uses its exposed beams and high ceilings to create a unified space. In contrast to the heavy wood and dark blue upholstery of the living room set, the kitchen stools are in light wood frame and rattan backing. In addition, the white paneled drawers and glass mullioned hanging cabinets add to the lightness the vaulted ceiling creates.

Red oak wood flooring contrasts with the powder blue kitchen island casework, while the glass used for the cabinets allow users to see the cabinet’s contents. The pale blue theme is continued on the walls and on the décor above the hanging cabinet’s plate rail. To counterbalance the cool tones of the pale blue and warm tones of the red wood, the rest of the kitchen cabinetry, doors and cornices and backasplash tiles are in white, as well as the double level breakfast bar’s countertop. Modernity is evident in the kitchen via the stainless steel oven recessed into the casework and the hanging pan hanger with lamps over the kitchen island.

A heavy, free-standing rustic wood island with a lower open shelf is topped with a black iron pot rack, which quickly gives a rustic feel to this Farmhouse kitchen. The square ceramic tiles in white and brushed bronze backsplash also add to the rustic feel, while the light green paneled cabinetry gives the kitchen a light, bright accent. An arched architrave leading to the stairs and hall gives this kitchen a unique identity, differentiating it from the rest of the house.

An Iguazu granite countertop is accented by the curved brass glass lamp trio hanging above it.

The earthy tones of the mint green walls and sandstone tile floors add to the natural finishes used in this farmhouse style kitchen, and is topped with the clean lines of a plain white ceiling.

Choosing a quirky color like mint green for this country style kitchen’s cabinetry works because of its seamless combination with the quaint, eccentric furniture like the mermaid rug and pinstriped sofa with rattan frame and coffee table. Further accent is added with the multi-colored mosaic tile backsplash, while the white quartz countertops, plain white ceilings and warm wood plank flooring makes the quirky Country look appear more natural.

White shiplap boards make up the walls of this Farmhouse kitchen, with the terminations ending with reclaimed wood headers over the range hood and the trio of black mullioned windows behind the stainless steel farmhouse sink.

Antique lighting fixtures in black metal and glass hanging over the kitchen island and mounted on the wall by the sink add an industrial chic feel to the country style finishes used in the space.

Modern Farmhouse Kitchen

The dark grains of the walnut wood countertop for the kitchen island are emphasized by the blue painted wood undercounter cabinets and plinths. The whole kitchen island set-up is accented by the plain white kitchen cabinets, stainless steel appliances and the pair of white framed double-hanging windows, which bring modernity to the kitchen. The earthy tones are contributed by the brown-grey granite countertops and warm wooden strip flooring. A pair of retro pendant lamps hanging over the kitchen island makes it the main focal point.

The reclaimed wood Farmhouse style dining table holds this L-shaped kitchen together, as does the bronze and glass chandelier hanging over it. With a white farmhouse sink, white kitchen walls, mullioned windows and cabinetry, the black countertops stand out and give this rustic kitchen a modern feel.

The exposed wood joists and girders on the ceiling is echoed by the wide plank hardwood floors. Black and white elements neutralize the warm wood, with the black metal and glass pendant lamps over the kitchen island and plain white paneled cabinets and drawers.

Farmhouse Kitchen Sink

Distressed wood cabinetry with aged iron and porcelain handles are brought to life by the bright green window shutters and deep blue wood of the kitchen island. The kitchen island countertop features rich wood planks, while the rest of the cabinetry is imbued with grey speckled stone countertops. A cream yellow tint on the walls brings this farmhouse kitchen unity, and emphasizes the rustic qualities of the copper farmhouse sink under the white mullion window.

This all-white kitchen with its horizontal white painted plank ceiling and white painted vertical plank cabinetery is given a pop of color with the warm reclaimed wood countertops. The white tiled floor is broken up by a patch of grey tiles by the oven, and the firewood stored beneath the kitchen counters. White French doors and mullion windows brings the greenery of the outside into the kitchen interiors, along with the sunflowers in a pot. Stainless steel fixtures such as the range hood and spotlight set over the kitchen island is contrasted by the black iron door and cabinet hardware, open shelf brackets and antique hanging candelabra.

Rustic Farmhouse Kitchen

The old distressed green painted wood of the kitchen island is matched by its blizzard granite countertop. Other rustic elements in the kitchen include the exposed reclaimed wooden beams spanning the width of the kitchen, and the brick backsplash and build-up for the stove top and range hood. The grey walls and white paneled cabinets and pantry provide a clean backdrop to the pair of antique black iron and glass hanging lamps over the kitchen island.

The beautiful view outside of the white mullioned windows is brought inside, with the knotty wooden cabinets and exposed reclaimed wood beams used in the ceiling. The grey granite countertops and backsplash are broken by the white double farmhouse sinks embedded into the cabinetry. Warm wood plank flooring ties the linear kitchen layout together, and is given clean lines by the chrome-finished cabinet handles and plain white walls and ceilings.

The natural tones of the exposed dark wooden beams running along the ceiling’s width is echoed by the dark sandstone tiles on the floor and heavy-grained polished wood cabinetry. Lightness is added to this farmhouse kitchen by adding a large mullioned window over the single basin sink, putting white ceramic tiles as the backsplash, and painting the range hood white. The quirky teapots decorating the plate rail over the range hood matches with the flowery pendant lamp over the solid wood dining table. The homey country house comfort is also shown by the matching upholstery on the dining table chairs and valance curtain over the mullioned window.

The black stone countertop blends seamlessly with the black farmhouse sink, and is emphasized by the white paneled cabinetry with rustic black metal handles. Exposed wood beams on the linear white wood strip ceiling add warmth to the black and white kitchen, and matches the wooden floor planks. Rustic accents such as the wrought iron brackets for the white open shelves and the triple bell jar pendant lamp over the sink add rustic accents to this Farmhouse kitchen.

This rustic cottage style house with its exposed wooden beams in its cathedral ceiling and split face stone fireplace is matched with even more rustic elements such as the sliding barn door in white wood and black metal hardware. The reclaimed white wood kitchen island is topped with a white single basin farmhouse sink and a double-tier of white stone countertop and black stone counter. As a whole, the white paneled cabinetry and kitchen island contrasts with the heavy pot rack hanging over it. Warm maple wood floors tie the whole thing together and unite the differing hues of pale wood used for this kitchen.
