Rustic Kitchen Design Ideas

If you are looking for a more natural kitchen design for your home, a rustic style combines warmth with elegance. It has a natural wood appearance instead of the whitewashed look you see on similar farmhouse styles. A rustic kitchen brings to mind a wood or “older” look. The number one characteristic of your rustic kitchen is its country feeling.

 

Rustic Cabinets

 

Choose rustic kitchen cabinets in Earth tones such as brown, green, orange, red, or purple. Bright and natural colors often found in the countryside contribute to the rustic design. If you are building a new kitchen, different woods and colors can be chosen to fit this style. If you are redesigning your existing kitchen, you can choose materials that give your current wood a more rustic look.

 

Rustic Countertops

 

Rustic countertops are fun because they guarantee a unique style for your kitchen. Solid wood of various types will differ slightly in color and pattern. Maple, oak, cherry, and birch are all solid woods that can be used for your countertops. A fun idea for your rustic kitchen is to use darker woods on your cabinets and lighter woods on your countertops.

 

Rustic Faucets

 

Rustic kitchens commonly have oil-rubbed bronze faucets. The bronze color compliments any of the shades of wood used for your cabinets and countertops. The faucet is likely a single handle, non-swivel but feel free to consider other options that best fit your needs or preferences.

 

Rustic Appliances

 

 

Customize your appliances with a wood finish to compliment the look of your rustic kitchen. The actual material for these appliances may be steel or other appropriate materials. Ovens in a rustic kitchen tend to have larger knobs and are likely gas, although electric is still an option. Smaller appliances should be in neutral, earthy tones. Add pops of color using your kitchen decor.
