Small Farmhouse Sunrooms: Bright, Beautiful and Relaxing Ideas

There are many different ways in which you can still keep the charm of warm summer months alive in your home. Some do it by turning to styles like coastal and beach while others embrace a color scheme anchored in muted, earthen tones for a more organic, summer-themed home. But there is another great way in which you can still bask in a bit of sunny warmth as the many shades of fall take over outside – a beautiful sunroom. Sunrooms are a great way to keep the cold outdoors even as you bring the same outdoors inside! And the best part is that there are plenty of fabulous styles to choose from. Today, we step into the comfy world of farmhouse style sunrooms.

We understand that not everyone can afford to dedicate a huge space for the sunroom. That is why we have rounded up some of the most beautiful and elegant small farmhouse style sunrooms for you today. Some are draped in greenery while others make the most of limited space without seeming cluttered. If you love the outdoors and want to enjoy them in the colder months ahead, then you do not want to miss on these ingenious ideas –

Fill it with Lots of Greenery

One of things that we love about a sunroom is the way in which it allows you to surround yourself with greenery even when it is cold and lifeless outside. This is especially true in case of homes that are nestled in parts of the world where winter is harsh and those lovely plants that you have guarded during summer and fall tend to wither away. A smartly placed sunroom with large glass walls and the right orientation can capture and store heat to ensure these plants survive the winter months. Whether you love tough indoor plants that need minimum maintenance or wish to safeguard a few of your garden plants, the small farmhouse style sunroom is a great option.

White, Light and Elegant

Even in the farmhouse style sunroom a color scheme that is dominated by wood and white is the most popular in 2020. This light and breezy backdrop brings together farmhouse and modern influences effortlessly and you have a sunroom that is adaptable and relaxing. This approach works even more beautifully in the small sunroom where use of much brighter colors can visually fragment the limited area available and lead to a clutter. Bring pops of bright color to this neutral space with brightly colored chairs, tables and curated accessories.

Décor for the Farmhouse Sunroom

There are a few décor pieces that give the small sunroom a more authentic farmhouse appeal than others. Décor that is made from reclaimed wood or vintage pieces with distressed finish are the perfect starting point. Couple them with cabinets that have doors with chicken wire or large tables in wood to accentuate this style. Add a few botanicals, curtains and cushions in plaid and you have a dashing farmhouse style sunroom that transports you into a simpler, more rustic world.

  • San Antonio House

    The trapezoidal tracing of the property is what defined the construction of this house into three clearly settled volumes. Vegetation also plays a protagonist role in the design of this house, both outdoors and indoors. The exterior trees enclose the house generating distinct tons of shades and colours during the different seasons of the year. Within the interior, the unruly green vegetation, contrasts with the stone floors and solid walls, reaching a perfect sense of balance. The entrance, a double height lobby that creates contrasting sensations and distinct visual ending points originated by water mirrors, light shafts, a tree and a staircase. The walls that shape this area, divide the spaces into private and public areas. The ground floor, is organized into two blocks each with a different purpose: The left side, is a white solid cube that integrates the study and the master bedroom and is separated from the other block by a water mirror and a yard that generates the desired privacy, peace and tranquility. The right side, the social area, is a rectangle closed to the west by a rigid wall and opened towards the interior of the house through large floor to ceiling glass walls, giving sober transparency to the yard with views to the garden and the central courtyard. The different angles within the construction achieve visual ending points with great character, as well as, enhancing the sensations provoked by the pure whites that evolve into mixed tones as the day and the seasons go by.
