50 Cool Designs That Take Home Decor To The Next Level

When it comes to making decisions about a buildings interior and exterior, the term ‘modern’ always gets tossed around a lot. But what really is a modern design and how do we define it in a very specific way? So, by definition, it is described as a décor style that focuses on minimalism, clean lines, neutral colors and environmentally-friendly materials. In its simplest terms, it is a design aimed to maximize a limited space with the use of sleek functional elements featuring earth tones preferably made from recycled materials.

So you see, the modern look is the opposite of ostentatious style that sports voluminous pieces of furniture in flamboyant colors. Although it puts emphasis on space-saving and eco-friendly factors, this style also works in creating a stunning space without skimping on the wow factor. The use of low-profile furniture and simple color schemes sets an inviting tone. And the addition of indoor planters livens up the space with charming greenery. So, you can have a comfy and gorgeous home which is the hallmark of modern living.

This Instagram page features incredible examples of modern design.

Although the modern trend highlights the use of neutral colors for the walls, floors, curtains, furniture and décor pieces, there’s no rule that forbids you in adding some lively pops of colors to your home. But if you intend to distribute vibrant colors around the room, we suggest keeping the walls white to compliment the space. Always keep in mind to live by the rule ‘less is more’ because there is beauty in simplicity so keeping it simple is the best way to go.
