Modern Rustic Kitchen - Design Ideas for Modern Rustic Interiors

The kitchen is the heart of the home and a great place to entertain. For this reason, it is imperative to create a space that is both functional and beautiful. There are so many trends to consider for your kitchen remodel-such as a timeless rustic design. In today’s modern world, rustic doesn’t have to equal raw wood panelling or floors. Here are some tips for you to consider when bringing your modern rustic kitchen to life.

Rustic Sink
A great way to incorporate rustic elements into your new kitchen is by installing a deep, industrial sink. It works both as a stylistic component and as a truly functional workhorse. This kind of deep sink will fill a soup pot effortlessly, wash your roasting pan with ease, and just make clean-up so much more comfortable. Don’t forget the faucet. Choose a high faucet with a pull-down sprayer so you can reach those hard-to-reach spots for cleanup. And think of how great this kind of sink will look in your new industrial modern rustic kitchen.This black sink is an extreme rustic choice, especially when paired with this white stone countertop. The style is an old fashioned take on monochrome ideals, but that doesn’t mean it’s any less spectacular!

Rustic Countertops
Another way to achieve a rustic kitchen design is with your countertops. A neutral-toned countertop, such as 6046 Moorland Fog, is a great way to bring your modern rustic kitchen to the next level. The soft and gentle tones of this granite inspired countertop are the perfect balance between the traditional and modern rustic kitchen. Opting for a butcher’s block in lieu of an island is another stylish way to increase the functionality of your new kitchen. When remodeling your kitchen, it’s important to know what direction you want to go stylistically. If you’re someone who likes the feeling of cozying up in a cottage that’s nestled quietly in the countryside, then the rustic look may be for you. From a worn-out wooden appearance to a metallic industrial vibe, there are so many ways in which you can incorporate a rustic look into your kitchen whether you live in a builder-grade home or in the heart of a city.

Rustic Flooring
When you're exploring rustic farmhouse kitchen ideas, a wood floor seems almost a given. But don't move so quickly - you have other options as well. Sometimes laminate flooring that looks like wood can give you a great rustic farmhouse kitchen flooring style. Or, you can choose black and white tile or even checkered linoleum. If you go with wood, you can decide to either leave it natural or paint it. Both go with this style. Many of your options will depend on what other design elements you have chosen. If there's already a lot of wood in the kitchen design, a wood floor may seem too much.
On the other hand, if you've chosen shaker-style cabinets or a lot of white in the design, a warm wood tone can be exactly what you need to add depth to the space. If you're ready for your rustic farmhouse kitchen flooring design, choose your flooring material next. Concrete or stone floors is a great way to put an industrial spin on your modern rustic kitchen. The texture and the style are all about living simply but still beautifully. This type of floor is all the rage in the high-tech world of open floor spaces. Or how about the truly classic style of hardwood floors? These floors give the appearance of a rustic lifestyle but can certainly be updated in a cool rustic modern kitchen by adding a sheen or gloss.

Rustic Cabinets
For a country kitchen, start with rustic kitchen cabinets. These don’t have to be made out of barn wood or leftover pallets, threatening to give you slivers each time you open a kitchen cabinet door or drawer. Rustic cabinets are every bit as polished and high-quality as something sleek and modern, but they have an unfinished appearance, or wood with grain and knots that give it character, or a distressed look with dings and dents.There is so much you can do with cabinets in a modern rustic kitchen. Take, for example, oak wood cabinets painted white. You can add modern touches, such as metallic handles, to offset the rustic look. Another idea for cabinets is all metal. Why not install metal cabinets and counters? They will help create the look of a truly industrial modern rustic kitchen.

Rustic Lighting

Rustic lighting is loosely defined, but these fixtures typically feature an antique or vintage feel. Look for distressed finishes and open designs that create an inviting glow. Want to capture the farmhouse look in your own home? Try these rustic kitchen lighting tips.

  • Farmhouse Pendants: Often used as entry or foyer lights, these tend to feature an open cage design with a traditional candelabra base. A hot trend in kitchen design is using these pendants in lieu of the typical chandelier over a kitchen table or island. This creates an incredibly warm, inviting look!
  • Rustic Chandeliers: Two alluring trends in chandelier design are distressed or multi-toned finishes and frames that resemble leather strapping. These chandeliers are perfect for homeowners who want to achieve a charming, rustic look while retaining a touch of tradition.
  • Outdoor Lights Inside: Today's outdoor lights are designed with a keen attention to detail, so why not consider using them indoors? (Yes, it's okay to do that!) Try gas lantern-style outdoor lights in the kitchen to transform your space into a rustic paradise reminiscent of inviting inns.
  • Vintage-Style Mini Pendants: Mini pendants may be one of the hottest trends in contemporary kitchen design, but they can certainly be used to create a rustic kitchen design too. Look for styles with antique-inspired elements like gas lantern turnkey accents, metal shades and weathered finishes. Bronze and copper finishes work particularly well.
