Modern Farmhouse Kitchen Remodeling

Warm whites, apron-front sinks, wood accents and black hardware: the relaxed, welcoming look that has become a Middle Tennessee favorite.

Modern farmhouse is the kitchen style that feels like a hug. It takes the honest materials of a working farm kitchen, such as painted wood, plank floors, open shelves and a deep apron sink, and refines them with clean lines, good lighting and a little black metal. In Nashville and the surrounding towns, it suits everything from new construction in the suburbs to older homes with plenty of character, and it photographs beautifully without being fussy.

The recipe is simple. Start with painted or lightly stained shaker cabinets in a warm white, soft gray or muted sage. Add a farmhouse sink, a long wood-topped island and simple brass or black fixtures. Layer in shiplap or beadboard on one wall, a few open shelves and pendants over the island. Keep counters light, quartz or soft granite, and floors warm in wood or wood-look tile. The result is bright, easy to live with and forgiving of real family life.
