Modern farmhouse living room ideas are a popular choice because they are a fusion of traditional farmhouse features, like warm colors and textures, and modern design choices like sleek lines and raw materials.
To create a balanced modern farmhouse living room look, layer cooler neutral shades like grey, white, and black with warm accent colors such as mocha, cream, tan, and oatmeal. For example, pairing a sleek gray sectional with an array of soft, warm-colored accent pillows. Build on the effect by including textural elements such as a sheepskin blanket or a chunky knit throw.
Another technique to achieve the modern farmhouse look is to pair light wood furniture, such as coffee tables, console tables, or side tables with modern black décor, like candlestick holders and table lamps. This creates a stylish and visually appealing contrast.
