My Modern Farmhouse Paint Colors

Paint Color Details

Hey guys! Today I’m happy to share the paint colors I used in my Idaho modern farmhouse. It is probably one of the top 10 questions I get asked, so I thought I’d put all the deets in ONE place! 😉

If you’ve been following along with me, you’re well aware my home is fairly neutral, with a lot of whites and pops of black. Finding the right white paint can be super overwhelming and challenging. I mean, how many shades of white are there?! A LOT!! I finally found one I LOVE. Benjamin Moore “simply white” is my foundation color, with Sherwin Williams “tricorn black” being my accent color throughout. I then selected three other spaces in my home to add color.

See below for a list of my 5 paint colors and details about where and the sheen I used in my home. Keep scrolling to see examples images of each color in different rooms in my modern farmhouse. Please leave a comment if you have any questions.
