Farmhouses don’t look like they used to before 2015. Farmhouses in 2024 are all about creating warm inviting spaces that have a rustic charm with a tiny contemporary twist. Creating spaces like this have become easier than ever, thanks to prefab modular construction
MODULI understands the appeal of the modern farmhouse. We specialize in creating spaces using prefabricated, modular construction methods. This means less time spent on-site construction, greater cost-certainty, and a final product that’s stunning (& functional).
Looking beautiful is not entirely what the modern farmhouse is about. Here are 7 must-have features to consider when designing your modular prefab farmhouse
1. Open Floor Plan
The hallmark of a modern farmhouse is a spacious and inviting layout. It’s designed in a way where all designated areas (living room, kitchen, bedrooms, etc.) are created without actually compartmentalizing them. This open concept fosters a sense of connection and allows for easy flow throughout the home.
At MODULI, we offer a variety of prefabricated modules that can be configured to create an open floor plan that perfectly suits your needs, allows for flexibility and customization.
2. Abundant Natural Light
When you’re at a farmhouse, you want to feel like you’re outdoors while being indoors. Get it? Embracing the outdoors while being indoors starts with having ample natural light. Large windows and strategically placed skylights are key. It’s all about creating a strong connection between the living space and the surrounding environment. Studies have shown that natural light can improve mood drastically. So if you want to keep your customers happy, bring in that sunshine.
MODULI offers prefabricated modules with expansive windows and skylight options, allowing you to maximize natural light in your modern farmhouse. Contact us to learn more.
3. Warm and Textured Materials
Natural elements take the beauty of any space to the next level. Be it exposed beams or hardwood floors, natural elements add warmth, texture, and a touch of rustic charm to the space.
At MODULI, we use high-quality, sustainable materials in our prefabricated construction. We offer a variety of options allowing you to personalize your home and create an inviting atmosphere.
4. Modern Farmhouse Kitchen
The kitchen is the heart of the home, and it is so, even in a modern farmhouse. Kitchens are all about a balance of functionality and aesthetics.
MODULI offers prefabricated kitchen modules that marry modern functionality with classic farmhouse charm. We can help you design a kitchen layout that maximizes efficiency, integrates seamlessly with your open floor plan, and reflects your personal style.
5. Cozy and Functional Mudroom
A mudroom is an essential feature as it provides a dedicated space for storing coats, shoes, bags, and outdoor gear. This keeps the rest of your home clutter-free and creates a designated area for cleaning up after outdoor adventures. For extended stays, having a mudroom is essential because it keeps all the essentials in one place. This ensures that everything remains organized and provides a convenient transition space between the outdoors and your living areas.
6. Fireplace
The fireplace is a quintessential element of any farmhouse. It’s almost like a statement. It adds warmth, ambiance, and a focal point to the living space. Consider a sleek, contemporary fireplace design that complements the clean lines of your modern farmhouse.
MODULI offers prefabricated fireplace options that can be seamlessly integrated into your modular home design.
7. Neutral Color Palette.
Neutral color palettes are the norm in the modern farmhouse world. Why? Because they offer a perfect blend of warmth and clean lines. Think white walls paired with crisp black lines. This approach creates a cozy yet sophisticated foundation for your home.
But the benefits extend beyond aesthetics. Neutrals act as a versatile backdrop, allowing your decor, appliances, and furniture to take center stage and evolve with your style.
