Choose a french country kitchen design for a rustic yet chic elegant style.

For hundreds of years this timeless style has been popular. It's characterized by traditional cabinetry that has ornate, furniture-like details.

Natural wood, weathered stone floors, exposed wood beams, honed marble countertops, and aged hardware all capture the charm and feel of the French countryside.
  • ​Glazed or decorative faux finishes and woodworking details throughout cabinetry
  • Hardware with carved details and a worn finish; oil-rubbed bronze, pewter, brushed metals or any hardware with a patina.
  • ​Architectural details are key; incorporate stone or rough tiles, hand-scraped wood beams, curved archways, intricate moldings and faux wall finishes including plaster or patterned wallpaper
  • ​Fabric choices tend to be richer and more formal using beautiful provincial patterns, like classic toile, with decorative trims, fringes or lacy accents.
  • ​Antiques are an important component to creating a French country space—use an antique armoire as your pantry in your kitchen or use it as a linen closet in the bathroom.
  • Integrate a vintage hutch or plate rack into your new cabinetry design for antique dishes or pottery
  • ​Install salvaged architectural ornamentation such as corbels, brackets, and other moldings
