20 Modern Farmhouse Dining Room Ideas

A modern farmhouse dining room blends comfort, style, and rustic charm. The design trend that emerged a decade ago continues to be popular, layering rustic materials with modern design. Modern farmhouse style is best known for a neutral color palette, wood accents, and of course, shiplap walls that have become synonymous with the style. Whether you want to spruce up your dining room or create a cozy breakfast nook, the modern farmhouse aesthetic lends itself beautifully to a variety of different spaces.

These modern farmhouse dining room ideas offer plenty of inspiration as well as practical tips for incorporating this cozy style into your own home.

A white table brightens this neutral dining room and a set of rattan bistro chairs create a relaxed feel. A neutral area rug helps tie in the brown and gray room elements and anchors the dining set, which is key in an open concept floor plan that doesn’t have walls to divide spaces by function.

A neutral color palette is anything but boring in this modern farmhouse dining room. Layers of textures and materials are the key to adding visual interest when using a limited color scheme, and in this space, the juxtaposition of an industrial-style wood and metal dining table with a more formal crystal chandelier and rustic rattan chairs does just that.
