Just saw this new table at West Elm - they call it the Modern Farm Table.

Do think it's more farm or more modern? Do you like it?

I guess it could be but this table is far from what I would consider a farm table. I would say that it is definitely more modern in style, but not finish.
I am not drawn to modern/contemporary/loft decorating. To me these pieces would work well with any that I mentioned.
I think that adding the natural elements such as the braided sisal rug, branches and light shade to some may be a style interpretation of farmhouse???
Although these elements can be found in a beach themed home as well.

Yes I think that could be considered a modern look because of the clean simple lines, even though it's wood.

I could see it with a drum pendant light overhead - what do you think?

This is a wonderful custom built design using salvaged boards. All our tables are custom made. These pictures are to give a sense of style and price. WE can build this style of table to almost any dimensions. Shipping costs will be based upon your location. Please contact us so we can chat about the details.

Looks pretty contemporary to me. What exactly constitutes a farm table?

I'm thinking no self-respecting farmhouse would have a table that small! And somehow modern and farmhouse do NOT go together in my mind. Of course, since I don't like the modern style I could be a bit biased. Give me farmhouse/cottage/country any day!

This old reclaimed wood lends itself wonderfully to truly touchable beauty. I love this table! I want to make it a little wider though, so it fits better in my dining room.
