A farmhouse/country-style interior can be tricky to achieve. While it projects warm and comforting vibes, it can risk looking dated or just out of place with the wrong colour palette, accessories and furniture.

Here are 5 ways to achieve the modern farmhouse interior look.

 

1.  Natural materials

Utilise wood, stone, and metals to create a rustic yet sophisticated feel. Reclaimed wood for furniture and architectural details is particularly popular.

2.  Neutral colour palette

Stick to a colour scheme of whites, beiges, grays, and other neutral tones to evoke a calm, clean, and welcoming atmosphere.
