Shutters are a hallmark of Southern style with their iconic clean lines and functional design. You can often find them on the interior and exterior of farmhouses, ranches, and most southern homes. But shutters are versatile and can work well in homes with a more traditional aesthetic, like coastal and modern interior design.

Here are a few of our favorite interior design styles that look wonderful with Plantation Shutters:

Modern Farmhouse Design

Farmhouse design is a versatile style in itself. While rustic Farmhouse is most likely the style you’re most familiar with, the modern farmhouse style has grown in popularity over the last few years. Modern Farmhouse perfectly blends rustic and contemporary styles, focusing on comfort, simplicity, and functionality.

Pairing Your Modern Farmhouse Lighting with the Right Window Treatments

Farmhouse shutters are typically made of natural or reclaimed wood and come in various styles, including board and batten, louvered, raised panels, and rustic. Farmhouse interior shutters should be in a neutral color like white, beige, gray, and black to help create a clean and uncluttered look and provide a neutral backdrop for other decorative elements.

Texture is an essential element of modern farmhouse design. Add textured features like custom window shades to your design. Cellular shades and their cellular structure offer your home texture and energy efficiency. Their custom fabrics provide accentuating texture to your shutters when open and perfect temperature control when closed.

Coastal Interior Design

Coastal interior design is a style inspired by the beach and the ocean. Coastal-inspired homes focus on natural materials, light colors, and nautical elements. We love this style for its light and airy colors and natural textures.

Opt for lighter colors like white, cream, or light blue when choosing coastal shutters. These colors will also help to reflect light and make a room feel brighter and more open. Natural materials like wood, rattan, and jute are often used in coastal interior design. These materials help create a sense of warmth and texture in the space and are durable and long-lasting.

Modern Interior Design

Modern interior design is characterized by a clean, sleek, and contemporary look that is both functional and stylish. This means clean lines and neutral colors like white, black, gray, and beige are often used as the base color, with accents of brighter colors used sparingly. The focus should be on making the space functional and beautiful, with every element placed with a purpose.

NewStyle® Hybrid Shutters
We love modern interior shutters for their functional design and sleek aesthetic. Often made from highly durable materials like PVC or vinyl, modern shutters are built to last years without signs of wear. They can also help regulate temperatures in your home with energy-efficient properties, which can help save on your energy bill.
