Design a Modern Indoor Environment

Every so often, the time comes when you must change your scenery and embrace a new environment. Has the time come for you to create a new scene inside your home? There are a wide range of options and techniques out there for cultivating a brand new scene. The first thing you must decide is what type of scene you want in your home. When it comes to renovations and interior design, one of the most popular settings that people go for is the modern and contemporary style. If you are looking to create a setting like this, there are a few ways you can be sure to accomplish this goal. With minimal accents, simple furniture, and a sleek water wall, you can totally transform your space.

Accents

When it comes to creating a modern style, it’s important to remember that the key to contemporary style is simplicity. The time of gaudy embellishments and overwhelming color schemes is (thankfully) in the past, and now it’s time to let the space speak for itself. Choose a color scheme that involves a maximum of three colors, one of those colors being an accent color. When you’ve chosen your accent color, by a *few* items in that shade. A shelf, a couple of pillows and a lamp is plenty to add that pop of color to your space.

Simple Furniture

Again, be sure to keep simplicity in the forefront of your decision making. There are lots of fancy pieces of furniture out there, even some ornate antique works of art. But, if we are going for a modern look, ornate and antique are two things we want to definitely avoid. When choosing the furniture for your contemporary indoor space, be sure to choose very minimal designs. Look for pieces that seem to have only the intended purpose in mind, with no need to add unnecessary design.

Water Walls

The accents and the simple furniture will definitely evoke a more modern feel in your home, but there are ways to can definitely take it to the next level. One of the best ways of doing this is by installing a sleek water wall as an accent in your new redesigned room. There are many styles and sizes of water panels for your wall; some hang and take up the space of a poster, while others can be installed to cover your entire wall. These will create a contemporary, and even futuristic, look with its smooth sheets of water cascading steadily down the walls.

Forget keeping up with the Joneses. They’re old news. These days, it’s more like keeping up with the Jetsons. If you are looking to create that more modern look in your home, it is very doable. With minor accents, simplistic furniture, and a water wall to accent it all, your home will be up to date and more!
