Achieve a Farmhouse-Modern Look
Every person has different tastes for their home, from mid-century modern to contemporary to classic. And lately, many people have leaned toward a look that’s being termed “farmhouse modern.” At Altra Home Décor serving the greater Phoenix area, we’ll be more than happy to help you determine if this look is right for your home and, if so, how to achieve it. Read on for some ideas!
Farmhouse Modern
As the moniker implies, this style mixes old-school features with a modern aesthetic. It can include industrial lighting over apron sinks and glossy finishes as well as wood accents. The overall look is inviting and relaxing, with neutral colors and a casual feel. This isn’t the same as a “country” look with roosters and frilly curtains; this look is intentionally rich in character and as far from kitsch as it can get.
Choosing Window Treatments
To achieve the farmhouse-modern look in your space, choose treatments that complement wood accents and bring aspects of natural light and no-frills charm. For example:
- Natural materials. Bringing the outdoors in can be part of the charm in a farmhouse-modern home, so wood blinds might be the right choice for you. Parkland® Wood Blinds are a great option, with selections in various paints and stains, as well as two slat sizes.
- Classic style. Roman Shades blend with numerous décor styles while adding classic style to a space. A great option is Vignette® Modern Roman Shades, which are available in different fold styles and opacities to meet any need. They also come in numerous fabrics, to blend seamlessly with the farmhouse-modern aesthetic.
- Nature-based feel. The farmhouse-modern look highlights no-frills, nature-inspired looks. Provenance® Woven Wood Shades, which are made with natural fibers like woven reeds, grasses, and bamboo, can complement other natural materials throughout the home, and they diffuse sunlight beautifully.
