But why the farmhouse? The United States, a former agricultural colony, has always had a nostalgia for rural life that makes its way into broader culture in a variety of forms, and the idea that rural life is somehow more honest and inherently American than urban life is a powerful trope that has become only more politicized since the Reagan administration. But the original farmhouses, the nameless, vernacular wood-framed buildings that can still be seen dotting the landscapes of the South and Midwest, were humble, meant to shelter from the elements and nurture the life within and nothing more. The modern farmhouse is a status symbol with a facade of humble, plucky folksiness. It is the Yeti cooler of houses.

Besides, can an open-plan kitchen with a barn-height ceiling bring an aura of casual realness to suburbia? Perhaps, but it requires 3,500 square feet, and green space is dwindling. New developments of modern farmhouses sit on postage-stamp-sized lots. When you look outside, all you see are other modern farmhouses. It’s no different than any other large suburban home — it’s the same house, just in a new costume. It makes sense for it to be this way; after all, we’re talking about a concept that’s salable, and renovation is much easier if you can just swap out one type of cabinetry for another. Soon, and not soon enough, the modern farmhouse will grow old, just like its predecessors, and our media overlords will have no problem feeding us the next big thing in 30-minute increments, packed into slow TV nights when there’s not much else to watch.

all anything is terrible, just mention brown is what's trending right now. brown could be a wide range of things though, my new all paint is white with a brown undertone, which is obviously much different than my "medium oak" floor, and much different than my chocolate brown countertops. But I have plenty of other color as well.
