Styles of Farmhouses or Country Homes by Intrim

Are you a fan of farmhouses or country-style homes? Most of the time, it's all in the details to achieve those desired looks. Intrim breaks down the styles of farmhouses or country homes into four:

1. Ranch

The ranch-style home originates from USA and is characterised by its simple and open floor plan plus long and low profile. Australian Ranch style homes are commonly found in rural areas, they usually use natural materials and feature large windows and vaulted ceilings.

2. Cottage

The cottage-style home on the other hand originates from 19th century England. Common features include wood panelling, exposed beams, large windows, and steeply pitched roofs. Timber mouldings are used for cornice mould, architraves, skirtings, and lining boards.

3. Barn

The barn-style home features an open floor plan with features like stone accents mixed with natural wood finishes. To enhance the rusticness of the space, timber mouldings are used as battens or wall and ceiling panels.

4. Modern Farmhouse

The modern-style farmhouse is a contemporary twist on the traditional. It carries elements from the original style like the use of natural materials and sticking to a natural colour palette. However, the modern farmhouse is less rustic and more minimalist. Timber mouldings are used to frame doors and windows as well as create architraves and coffered ceilings.
