Here’s a bespoke kitchen in the Cotswolds with beautifully modern rustic style evoking (at least for me!) elements of French farmhouse style.

Simplicity in a Humble White Kitchen

While this Tennessee kitchen is a more modern interpretation of “farmhouse,” its simplicity and mix of humble materials is certainly suggestive of those from a bygone era.

Light Blue Inspiration in a Kitchen With French Country Influence

While neither rustic nor located in the French countryside, this light blue kitchen in an Atlanta showhouse reflects a pale color palette as well as a decidedly timeless romanticism we often note in French country kitchens.

Rustic & Modern in a Farmhouse Kitchen in France

It’s not as easy as you might imagine to score photos of authentic French farmhouse kitchens in France, and the one below may surprise you with its modernity. We see rustic wood ceiling beams and stone flooring, yet there are also a number of modern elements including an overhead microwave, large immobile island, and acrylic counter stools.

Function Before Form as a French Kitchen Principle

The French understand PURPOSEFUL decor and since space is most often limited, objects must do double or triple duty. In this American kitchen with Nordic French design, we see such a sensibility modeled beautifully.

Pendant Lights With Farmhouse Style

Farmhouse style pendant lights over the island often make a strong statement while they also set a more casual tone than say, chandeliers dripping with crystals.

    Oh my what lovelies to start my day! Makes me want to shop the local thrift stores to see what I can find. 😉

    Your posts always bring a smile to my face and energy to my day. Today’s post saying “all dogs being therapy dogs” touches my heart because I so know that to be true. 🙂

    Many thanks!
    P.S. Your blog is actually the only one I read consistently because it has such beautiful words and beautiful photos to dream on.

        I didn’t even get out thrifting (though I dearly wanted to) because the idea of getting out to shop just for fun in weather with a wind chill feeling like -35F just didn’t make much sense. LOL!

          Feelin that! I ventured out anyway and yesterday was nutty – so cold yet everywhere I shopped, it felt like black Friday! Crazy cabin fever shoppers!
