Some common materials used in a coastal farmhouse kitchen design include:
1. White or light-colored cabinets and countertops: This helps to create a fresh and airy feel that is often associated with coastal designs.
2. Natural or light-colored wood: Using wood in the kitchen, such as for flooring or shelving, gives a rustic and farmhouse touch to the space.
3. Subway tile: Subway tile is a classic choice for coastal farmhouse kitchens. It can be used as a backsplash or even on the walls to add a vintage charm.
4. Shiplap or beadboard paneling: Both shiplap and beadboard paneling are popular choices for coastal farmhouse kitchens as they add texture and give a beach-cottage feel.
5. Rattan or wicker furniture: Incorporating natural materials like rattan or wicker into seating options, such as dining chairs or bar stools, contributes to the coastal aesthetic.
6. Stainless steel appliances: While stainless steel appliances are not inherently coastal, they are often used in coastal farmhouse designs for their clean and modern look that complements the overall style.
7. Nautical-inspired accessories: Adding nautical elements like rope, shells, or anchors in the form of decor or drawer pulls can enhance the coastal farmhouse vibe.
8. Light and breezy window treatments: Sheer curtains or blinds in light colors can let in natural light while maintaining privacy, enhancing the coastal farmhouse aesthetic.
9. Distressed or reclaimed wood accents: Incorporating elements made from reclaimed or distressed wood, such as open shelving or a reclaimed wood kitchen island, adds character and warmth to the space.
10. Natural stone: Using natural stone for countertops or as a backsplash adds an organic and beachy feel to the kitchen design.
