Mixing modern style with farmhouse?
Comments (8)FWIW - whats called "farmhouse" style is really a modern early 2000s fantasy of what a farmhouse 100 years ago might have looked like..... in some other universe far, far away. Meaning - why not just mix it up in any way that works. Just be aware of design principles - repetition, scale, etc. How to combine color and pattern. Just call it eclectic - which can be a more lively, fun, personally rewarding way to decorate anyway....See MoreWhich interior door style to go with for a modern farmhouse?
Comments (26)A very important feature of flat paneled doors is the sticking (the little strips around the perimeter of the flat panels). I believe the doors you are considering are of molded composite construction from Jeld Wen and have no sticking other than a slight bevel on the stiles and rails which Jeld Wen calls "Craftsman sticking". Of course, the real reason for the slight bevel is the inability of moulded door stiles and rails to be fabricated with sharp edges. IMO these doors are a step down from traditional flat panel doors with or without sticking but perhaps that's appropriate for a "modern farmhouse". No one could argue otherwise since its a style based on vague notions of older rural vernacular architecture and these doors have that same vague undefined casual quality. I don't mean that as a criticism. With a trade discount at Home Depot these doors are a bargain and I've used them when TruStile doors were over the budget. Some examples of traditional sticking designs:...See MoreUsing white, farmhouse style windows in non-farmhouse?
Comments (37)Traditional ? you mean true divided windows where each piece of glass was installed between wood muntins? I can't imagine you could even buy a window like that...maybe at a salvage shop. My experience is with Anderson 400 which offers is the look of true divided windows, are energy efficient, and avoids the snap in/snap out vinyl grids, that break and leave holes in the window frame. K H, tell your husband to take a look...he needs an introduction to muntins in modern age. He won't freeze with these. My neighbor mowed his lawn last evening while we were having guests for dinner. I shut the windows, closed the slider (Anderson as well) and it was like turning off the t v....See MoreHelp me style modern farmhouse dining wall
Comments (5)Goodness sorry for all the typos in original post! If o moved the art on the wall down to eye level then it’d be close to the bottom of the wall and lots of blank space up above, but I see what you mean too many small pieces…maybe I’ll find something larger that can go closer to the bottom and higher to the top. Also thanks Rachel, adding a full wall isn’t an option at this point but we do need to paint that handrail! We painted the banister 5 years ago when we moved in and never got around to the hand rails 😅...See MoreManon Floreat
