Style Called Rustic Farmhouse

jubilant — Thu, 24 Mar 2022 13:40:08 GMT

Why We Love This Look: There’s nothing that’s as transporting as a rustic farmhouse dining room. It immediately brings to mind a charming countryside home. The mix of traditional furnishings and vintage-inspired elements and colors make it a gathering space that instantly inspires ease and comfort.

It begins to appear that any room featuring a big chunk of wood of any kind now qualifies as 'rustic' and any room featuring any version of ship lap or a slat back chair qualifies as 'farmhouse'... Whatever...

This is a modern rustic. What a beautiful room. I really like it. I love the long widows. You get lot of light, and a pretty view. I also love the contrast of black, white, and wood. It's so pleasing to the eye.

Both of these are nice rooms, but I do prefer the first room because of the lightness of the room and the view out the window. Thank you for sharing.

Not anything I like, and also "farmhouse?" I've seen a LOT of farmhouses and honey, that ain't it!

If you are a true traditional rustic fan I could see where this wouldn't appeal to you @stevieb . I like a more modern edge to it, so it appeals to me.

I only commented on the first picture. I need to see a different angle on the second picture to comment. So not sure about that one.

That doesn't look rustic or farmhouse to me.

Both rooms might well have some appealing elements, I just find the description a bit of a misnomer.

I really like that style---if I would ever get my own place that is how I would want it. with a few tweaks here and there, of course

@Sooner, , Me Too sooner. This must be someone that never actually spent time in a real farmhouse.

@stevieb

I agree, but the trestle table goes centurys back as do Windsor chairs. I think the better term here would be "Elements Of Farmhouse".

@ECBG or elements of a modern interpretation of farmhouse. To be sure trestles and slat backs go way back but these are pretty clearly revised editions...

#1 Easy chairs at end of table - and white - no less.????

Spilled tomato sauce on those will kill the designer's dream............

I like both spaces; the first more than the second. However, as others have stated, I'm not so sure about calling them Farmhouse anything.

I see nothing in the first picture remotely rustic except the table and chairs. Beautiful set but to me it stands out like a sore thumb.

Second picture isn't very rustic farmhouse either, a few elements yes. Maybe the label is misleading?

@tiny 2 Hey, maybe sprinkle a few dried soybeans on the floors (OUCH if you step on the little devils bare foot!), and a nice coat rack with a pair of dusty coveralls to make it more authentic?

Mostly what I see is black and white style.

@jubilant There is nothing in either room that I like.

Now these are nicely done even if this isn't my style. I'm not seeing much rustic though....I see farmhouse w/ a "tiny" bit of of a modern thrown in.

Very pretty rooms. Does not look like a farmhouse to me in any way, shape, or form.
