The 8 Best Sofas For a Modern Farmhouse Aesthetic
There's something about farmhouse decor, especially modern farmhouse decor, that we editors here at POPSUGAR value. Perhaps it's the style's traditional fabrics, natural wood finishes, vintage furnishings, or overall rustic feel that reels us in, or maybe it's the organic colors — like beige, natural brown, and muted gray — that have us attracted. Whatever it may be, this decor style has a hold on us for better or for worse. From spending hours shopping the Hearth & Hand With Magnolia section at Target to decorating our homes to look like modern farmhouses in major metropolitan areas, there's so much to say about this decor's popularity.
When it comes to sofas, there are many that fit the farmhouse look, but only a select few have our seal of approval. Our personal favorite is the Lulu and Georgia Walden Sofa ($4,298), but there are more options where that came from.
What to Look For When Buying a Farmhouse Sofa
There are a lot of things to consider when shopping for a sofa that fits the farmhouse aesthetic. Does it have a traditional fabric like linen or polyester? Is the sofa's color earthy to match the quintessential farmhouse look? Are you looking for something modern or more traditional? And above all — how comfortable is it? What's the price? All of these things have a hold on which couch you pick out, and luckily, we've found an array of sofas that fit the modern farmhouse aesthetic for all sorts of homes and apartments. Keep reading to see them all.
