Give the country-style kitchen a modern twist that is perfect for urbanites
RUSTIC TEXTURES
Weathered furniture and accessories are hallmarks of the country-style kitchen. If you have any doubts about having them in your urban home, you can introduce them in other impermanent or practical ways such as through tableware and other decorative accessories.
EXPAND YOUR PALETTE
Cosy and homely are just some words that describe the country-style kitchen. White is the go-to colour in the country-style kitchen for the sense of spaciousness it brings. That said, there are many whites to choose from. For an inviting feel, go for whites with warm undertones. Also, look for soothing colours like powdery shades of blue or grey. If you like a bright and upscale look, complete the kitchen with marble-like quartz countertops.
MIX AND MATCH
Don’t worry about uniformity for the country-style kitchen. The aim is to have an effortless look. So, free up your creativity and embellish your Shaker-style cabinets with a mix of knobs and handles. And if you want to introduce wood into a compact space, there’s no need to go for a heavy presence of wood. A slim worktop with wood patterns like this one from EDL Compact makes the cut.
