What Features Do We Admire From This Barndominium?
The modern farmhouse architectural style combines the decor of a traditional farmhouse with modern design, furnishings, and color schemes. Hallmarks of the style include rustic wooden beams, shiplap accent walls, and reclaimed wood furniture. It’s a perfect style for barndominiums. Barndominium color schemes that work well in modern farmhouse designs include warm and cool neutral colors like cream, beige, brown, gray, and white, as well as natural tones like blue, green, yellow, and dark orange. Other design elements that can usually be found in modern farmhouse homes and barndominiums include wrought iron accents, wide plank flooring, and large, plush furniture.
Here at Davis Custom Homes, we’ve built in many different architectural styles, but modern farmhouse is one of our favorites. This style is the perfect blend of classic appeal and contemporary luxury. We love combining traditional touches like wood-look floors and intentionally rustic cabinets with sleek quartz countertops and subway tile to create spaces with just the right amount of modern charm. Plus, the neutral colors that are a hallmark of this style make each room a great backdrop for the furniture, decor, and keepsakes the future homeowners will bring – so modern farmhouse homes are very easy for families to make their own.
But while we could talk about modern farmhouse style all day, we know that seeing is believing. So, let’s take you on a tour of one of the homes we recently built in this style and explain how it all comes together!
Exterior Layout
The exterior of the barndominium features sleek, modern windows and a contemporary front door. It’s finished with vertical paneling in an ultra-modern dark gray. The simple, stained wood beam holding up the roof over the covered porch adds a rustic touch that helps to ground the home.
Interior Layout
The layout is ideal for family living with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, including a luxurious primary bath. There’s an open-plan kitchen and living room with a large counter island. The space is perfect for entertaining and simply spending time together as a family.
Color Scheme
This barndominium’s color scheme includes warm neutrals such as cream walls, gray doors, and lots of warm woods throughout. Not only does it look great on its own, but it also serves as a welcoming backdrop for however the homeowners choose to decorate.
The Finishes
- Cambria Quartz Countertops – Quartz offers a contemporary vibe, and the quartz Cambria uses is exceptionally pure and sustainably harvested. This allows Cambria to manufacture durable countertops that require no maintenance or sealing while being designed to resist chipping, scratching, and staining.
- Wide Vinyl Plank Floors – This style is the perfect blend of “modern” and “farmhouse.” While the floors look like genuine wood floors, they’re much easier to maintain and will hold up well to whatever kids, pets, and the daily hustle and bustle of family life throw at them.
- Subway Tile – This popular look gives the barndominium some contemporary styling in a neutral color scheme.
The Setting
The 10-acre compound this barndominium lies on makes it a modern farmhouse in the true sense of the word. The homeowners get to enjoy being close to nature and having plenty of space to spread out instead of being right on top of the neighbors.
