Modern Farmhouse Style Explained
The modern farmhouse style is equal parts elegance and everyday utility. Walk into a modern farmhouse and you’ll experience an effortless “lived-in” vibe with contemporary features and striking materials all around you. So, how do you achieve a modern farmhouse look for your own home, and when it comes to the windows that fill that space with light, which types of windows complete the modern farmhouse aesthetic? We will lay out how MARVIN® Modern Farmhouse Windows can help you achieve your home renovation goals.
The modern farmhouse style harkens back to an era when life was less complicated. The style uses natural elements in its design, common areas in its architecture, and above all, blends the outside with the inside thanks to its generous use of windows. Vertical elements like standing seam roofs and cedar siding evoke vintage barn structures while the use of contemporary materials elevates the overall look.
Modern farmhouses can have white, natural wood or chalky stone exteriors. They can be one structure, or several small and detached ones linked by breezeways or long sun-filled hallways. A key tenet is to present the architecture as asymmetrical, making the home appear to be comprised of various pieces. The center of the home is often a great open room, anchored by an unadorned hearth that acts to connect the kitchen to the living space.
This popular style can utilize steel, metal materials, and live edge woods as in its new iteration known as the industrial farmhouse. Or it can be a purely white modern farmhouse with neutral colors and rustic woods. Trim is typically minimal or non-existent, and windows are typically unadorned in both styles. It is through these clean sight lines and uncomplicated shapes that today’s farmhouses are defined.
Selecting MARVIN® Modern Farmhouse Windows
Black interior double hung windows without simulated divided lites, or grids, are the most complementary selections for the farmhouse design. Double hung windows can feel modern. Windows can be white or a light natural wood clad style for the warmth of a wood interior while benefiting from low maintenance exteriors.
“Double hung windows can absolutely feel modern – counter to common opinions,” he said. Additionally, windows can be white or a light natural wood clad style to allow the warmth of a wood interior with a low maintenance exterior.
Casement style windows also offer pleasing views of the outside while boasting larger openings for cross ventilation. Symmetry should be observed for any color style that is chosen.
To achieve the desired look, homeowners can select MARVIN® Modern Farmhouse Windows with rustic, natural, warm and uncomplicated appearances. These are the cornerstone of successful modern and industrial farmhouse styles.
Black windows and hardware are the most popular choice for builders and homeowners while gunmetal finishes are also gaining ground. Wood flooring is often used but should have a weathered look to give the impression of having been there a long time, with a settled-in appearance.
Natural tones like ivory and cream are preferred for farmhouse décor. To bring interest to the interior, designers will often add texture. The subtle use of boucle, faux fur, and sisal rugs add interest to this soft palette. If color is added, it is in the Scandinavian hues of sky blue and greyish green.
MARVIN® Modern Farmhouse Windows blend the very best of traditional and modern elements. Homeowners aiming to give their abodes a more rustic look can go for the Marvin® brand’s Modern Farmhouse Windows. This is ideal for homes with the modern farmhouse style, an aesthetic that brings one back to a simpler, more tranquil time.
