Modern design is an interior design style that emerged in the early 20th century and continues to inspire contemporary interior designers.
What is the modern design style?
The modern design style is characterized by a monochromatic color palette, clean and minimal lines, natural materials, and natural light. It specifically references an aesthetic movement that occurred from the beginning to the mid-20th century. Although it is often confused—or used interchangeably—with the term ‘contemporary design,’ modern design is a distinct style of its own.

5 key elements that define the modern design style.
- Clean lines: Modern homes are constructed with clean, straight lines and minimalistic decorations.
- Minimalist home decoration: Modern space is free from clutter and unnecessary flourishes. Modern decoration prioritizes functionality over fashion.
- Neutral colors: The modern style avoids bright color schemes in favor of a monochromatic, neutral palette. Think of tones like white, beige, gray, black, and blush
- Open floor plan: Utilizing furniture instead of walls to distinguish between spaces in an open-concept home. For example, a kitchen island can separate the kitchen from the dining area, and a sectional sofa can define a space in an open living room.
- Low and long furniture: Furniture pieces that are long and low to the ground can bring a modern look to your home, especially if they are made from natural materials like wood or untreated metal. Leather and fabric, wood veneer (such as materials used in creating mid-century modern Eames chairs), glass, chrome, steel, and concrete are also common finishing materials for modern furniture.
