The beloved modern farmhouse look isn't going anywhere anytime soon. This style blends the classic charm of down-home farmhouse charm blended with of-the-moment modern accents and colors. You can create this style throughout the interior of your house and do your own take on it with different furniture, decor, and interior paint.
Which paint color brings the modern farmhouse aesthetic to life? Turns out, there's a whole spectrum of neutral paint colors and shades that pair perfectly with a modern farmhouse look in any room. Read on to see some of the best modern farmhouse interior paint colors for 2021 and beyond chosen by our team of color experts at Brush & Roll Painting.
1. Gray
One of the most versatile shades, gray is a go-to shade for modern farmhouse interiors and our favorite neutral paint color. Whether you choose to paint your living room, kitchen, or dining room, you can't go wrong with a light gray. Depending on the natural light available in your space, grays can often pull slightly green or blue. A soft shade like Benjamin Moore's Classic Gray is the perfect muted gray for living room walls and kitchen cabinets alike.
2. Dark Blue
A rich blackened blue as an accent wall color or kitchen cabinet color is unexpected
and gives your space a moody yet neutral tone. This color will especially pop with beige and cream furniture and neutral decor. Any dark blue with gray undertones will be more subdued than a bold blue or navy farmhouse paint color, complementing a modern farmhouse space. A timeless favorite interior paint color is Hale Navy by Benjamin Moore and Evening Dove by Benjamin Moore.
3. light green
Light green, sage, or pistachio adds an earthy vibe that's full of life. It's a popular paint color and the perfect shade that's versatile and has an unpredicted pop of color. Sage green looks great in all spaces and its gray undertones make it a lovely neutral. Try light green as an accent wall in the living room, a hallway color, or a dining room shade on all four walls to make an impact. Saybrook Sage by Benjamin Moore is a stunning interior shade to round out a modern farmhouse look.
4. light blue
The key with light blue in a modern farmhouse space is choosing a muted color that's
more of a neutral than a vibrant hue. While a bold aqua may not be your best bet, a grayish, barely-there-blue will be just what you're looking for and a calming bedroom color. This color will be soft but have the richness needed to make your farmhouse space complete. Get the look with Benjamin Moore's Smoke.
5. black
Yes, really! Black paint leans more on the "modern" side of modern farmhouse, but when done correctly, it will give you the look you're wanting for your interior. Black as an accent wall or on kitchen cabinets is eye-catching and dramatic but it's still paired with farmhouse elements, so the juxtaposition with stark black accents makes it even more stunning. Dark colors definitely cultivate the coziness that modern farmhouse style is known for. Black by Benjamin Moore is the perfect shade for this look.
6. white
White should probably be at the top of our list, as it's the most popular farmhouse
color on the list. Clean white walls are a huge design element of farmhouse style. Designers and color experts alike use white paint on shiplap and in just about every room including interior trim. White paint lets the character of a farmhouse kitchen or bathroom shine and contrasts with two-toned cabinets or a darker accent wall for a fresh look. Give White Heron by Benjamin Moore a whirl to get the look.
7. beige
Beloved beige is a go-to farmhouse paint color perfect for open spaces and any existing decor and furniture. If you want an ultra-neutral hue with a hint of warmth that's not too washed out, beige will be the best choice. Pair with dark blue or navy to contrast in a modern farmhouse kitchen. On its own, beige adds subtle depth and dimension to a modern farmhouse-inspired room. We love Swiss Coffee by Benjamin Moore to recreate this look.
