Another Modern Take on the American Farmhouse
This modern farmhouse, found nestled in the back of a long, wooded lot in Worthington, Ohio, showcases mixed materials on the exterior adding to the modern look of the home. The dark board and batten mixed with standard wood siding in the same color add visual texture to the home, while the stone water table and natural wood accents add warmth to the overall exterior aesthetic.
The Modern Farmhouse
Sleek, modern, chic, and contemporary — did you realize those words could be used to describe a farmhouse? Gone are the farmhouses filled with dark wood, loads of shiplap, and overly rustic design elements. Farmhouse style isn’t going anywhere, but it has evolved, and the design team here at RDS has embraced these changes when designing new homes for our clients.
