Modern Farmhouse has a laid-back charm. Touching on elements of the Cottagecore aesthetic, one that prioritises comfort and warmth to create a home with a country feel.
The term Cottagecore comes from fantasizing about escaping to a rural life and living "in a cottage". This is a trend which has grown in popularity over the last few years.
When choosing furniture, chalk finishes and blocky farmhouse units are popular. Alongside the use of farmhouse furniture, open shelving adds freshness. The Spring Summer ‘23 collection from Straits has white metal furniture, plant stands, and shelving which are adorned with hearts and scrolls. Dreamy furniture perfect for use in a sunroom or orangery.
You can add bursts of colour with stunning artificial florals in the form of potted plants, wreaths and bouquets. These are low maintenance but have maximum impact, without the concern of browning petals after a week.
Finally, complete the look with countryside characters who provide maximalist shelf decorations. Our Farmland Fellows and uniformed dogs will raise a smile.
