    MODERN INTERIOR

    DESIGN
    INTRODUCTION

    • MODERN INTERIOR Design, actually was born out of a

    design movement at the turn of the 20th century.

    • Modern style is simple, uncluttered, and clean-looking.

    • Modern design is rooted in modernism, the turn-of-the-

    century movement characterized by an emphasis on

    abstract thinking, functionality, and stark, simple forms.


    • The idea behind incorporating modern design into many

    homes and businesses, is to maintain a certain balance

    between the decorations and furnishings, and their

    intended purposes.

    • In other words, if it doesn’t have a practical purpose in

    the space, it doesn’t need to be there.


    • Modern design grew out of the modern art movement,

    which rejected the maximalist tendencies of Victorian

    design in favor of a form-follows-function philosophy.

    • New technologies, industrialization, and access to

    building materials like steel and concrete also informed

    modern art and architecture from the 1920s to the early

    1950s.
    Defining Elements of Modern Design

    1. Clean lines:

    Modern homes are constructed with clean, straight lines and

    minimal ornamentation.
    2. Simple and unadorned

    Modern interior design style is simple and unadorned. The most

    important quality of this style is being functional. Form always

    follows function.
    3. Natural materials and earthy tones

    Modern interior design usually also includes the use of

    natural materials and neutral or earthy colors. Think

    unpainted wood, metals, leather and monochromatic

    colors.
    4. Natural light and unadorned windows

    In modern designed homes, natural light is very important so lots

    of windows are important, but they are typically unadorned.


    5. Open floor plan:

    • Use furniture instead of walls to differentiate between the

    spaces of an open plan home.

    • For example, a kitchen island can separate a kitchen from

    the dining room, and a sectional sofa can bring definition

    to an open living room.


    6. Simple, functional furniture

    • Modern furniture like architecture emphasizes simplicity

    and function. In modern style homes, you will usually see

    low, horizontal furnishings with clean lines.

    • And the furniture is usually made of natural materials like

    unpainted wood, leathers, steel, chrome or glass.


    7. Minimal home decor:

    Modern spaces are free from clutter and unnecessary

    flourishes.

    Modern decor prioritizes functionality over fashion.


    8. Practicality and Functionality

    • Practicality and functionality are arguable the two most

    important features of modern interior design.

    • The whole movement is centered around decorative

    pieces for function, not for show.
