For many of us, the kitchen is the heart of a home. This area of our living space, where typically everyone gathers, needs to be functional yet cozy and inviting at the same time, which is why a modern farmhouse style is such a popular choice for a kitchen remodel.
A modern farmhouse kitchen pairs sleek, minimal, and modern elements with a cozy and rustic aesthetic that makes your space unique and inviting. You can take a farmhouse kitchen classic like a reclaimed wood cutting board, apron front sink, or copper pendant lights and pair them with a few modern touches to give your space a functional and minimal makeover.
In the list below, I have gathered the most inspiring farmhouse kitchen designs that feature a modern design. Whether you are looking to make a few small tweaks to your kitchen decor, or are planning an entire makeover, this list will surely get you excited.
