9. Open Shelving and Display Spaces
Medieval kitchens often lacked modern cabinetry, so open shelving was practical for storing dishes, pots, and ingredients. Incorporating open shelves in your farmhouse kitchen allows you to display beautiful ceramics, glass jars, copper pots, and vintage kitchenware while keeping essentials within easy reach.
- Design Tip: Use reclaimed wood or distressed timber for shelving. Arrange items in a visually pleasing way, mixing textures and colors. Consider adding hooks beneath shelves for hanging utensils or mugs, enhancing both functionality and medieval charm.
