Farmhouse Decor Updates For Fall 2022
Farmhouse Decor Is Back — 9 Picks For Incorporating the Style Into Your Home
If your idea of modern farmhouse decor involves piles of shiplap and endless variations of live-laugh-love signs, we've got some news for you: this style has seriously evolved. Today's modern farmhouse interiors are more streamlined, more sophisticated, and truly timeless. The overall idea is still built around life in the country, creating a sense of ease by using natural fabrics, earth tones, and classic silhouettes. But the new spin leans on subtle details such as seeded glass and linen accents to make a space that's warm and welcoming — whether you happen to live on a rural farm or in a big-city high rise. Ahead, see nine of our farm-fresh picks for the new modern farmhouse, wherever it may be.
Marcin Vases
Mason jars are useful and cute, but they look best in the kitchen. For a more versatile take on farmhouse, choose glass vessels that are intentionally made for display. This pair of Marcin Vases ($80) features seeded glass and light-brown rope accents for a rustic feel. Add fresh flowers or faux pussy-willow branches for a quietly elegant addition to your living room or bedroom.
Briana Lantern
Well-designed rooms always have an element of contrast, so if your furniture has soft lines and light tones, balance them out with a sturdy structure. The antiqued black metal of the Briana Lantern ($120) is especially striking when paired with gently whitewashed woods and natural textiles. Fill the lantern with a pillar candle that's off-white, not stark white, to keep the overall look from appearing too industrial.
Soletren Oversized Chair
Farmhouse decor may evolve, but the focus on comfort isn't going anywhere. Right now, fuzzy fabrics in neutral tones are trending — and given their versatility, they'll stay in style longer than the latest TikTok trend. For instance, this Soletren Oversized Chair ($660) has a plush cushion, a generous seat, and stone-colored chenille upholstery that will wear better than the ultratrendy bouclé you're seeing everywhere.
Perlman Baskets
Thanks to their versatility, baskets are still a big part of farmhouse decor. Style the lower shelf of an entryway table with this pair of Perlman Baskets ($180), and you'll banish clutter with barely any effort. Woven of natural hyacinth reeds, these white-washed baskets are large enough to hide random items — while adding natural texture to the space.
Larkspur Console Table
The original incarnation of modern farmhouse style made use of found materials; now, those materials are being used to create more daring silhouettes. Made of reclaimed wood, this Larkspur Console Table ($949) has an unpretentious sophistication while retaining a low-key, down-home quality.
Hearthside Tool Set
With winter on its way, you'll want to deck out the fireplace with stylish accessories. This Hearthside Tool Set ($249) is built from steel, designed in New England, and utterly classic. It would look at home in an 18th-century farmhouse — or a 21st-century one, for that matter.
Ada Reversible Rug
If you like the farmhouse look but aren't ready to countrify your entire home, add small accents like pillows and rugs. Available in a range of cool-toned neutrals, this Ada Reversible Rug ($152) has a simple grid pattern that goes with just about everything. Better still, it's indoor/outdoor and easy to care for — which is ideal for an actual farmhouses, too.
Gehry Pillow
Real talk: pillows with sassy sayings on them had a moment, but they feel overplayed now. Update your pillow situation in rich textiles that feel low-key luxe. These velvet Gehry Pillows ($112–$196) are edged with linen for a look that lets your style do the talking.
Hollis Wood Candle Holder
Candles are a mainstay of farmhouse decor, and this Hollis Wood Candle Holder ($68) is a pretty platform to showcase your favorites. Style one on a table with shorter items, or pick up two to adorn either end of a long console table.
