Modern interior style - freedom of space and clarity of lines

Today, when free space is becoming less and less, and human needs for comfort are increasing every year, the need to free one’s home from unnecessary things and create the most comfortable climate for relaxation and work in the apartment leads to a decision to change the appearance of the apartment. Which of the styles is able to solve the problem and create comfort and coziness in the house? If you conduct a review of modern thematic catalogs, sites and magazines, you can see that among all the proposed styles, only one is able to solve the problem of space - this is a modern style.

Three basic rules of modern style

I must say that modern style has several varieties or trends in interior design: constructivism, art deco, minimalism, pop art, kitsch, loft, hi-tech, neoclassic and techno style. If we compare them with each other, they will, of course, turn out to be different both in design, and in materials of execution, and in interior decoration, but they are united by one thing - freedom of space. This is the main distinguishing feature of modern style. What makes space free? Modern style has three unchanging rules:
  • A minimum of everything.
  • Complete order in everything.
  • No to wires.
These rules apply to absolutely everything - from the design of walls and furniture to accessories and the necessary details.

Features of modern style in the interior

What is the modern style in the interior, and what distinguishes it from other types of styles? Modern style has its own rules and features in the design.
  • Straight lines. Everything in this style should be harmonious and clear. From corners and walls to furniture, everything should have a certain symmetry. This does not mean that everything should have only right angles and flat surfaces. The main thing is the presence of simple shapes: circle, oval, triangle, square, etc.
  • Simple colors. Favorite colors of the style are neutral. These include beige, gray, black and white colors and their various shades. This does not mean that it is necessary to say no to bright color. A bright piece of furniture or a colored mosaic of the wall will bring its emphasis to the style of the interior. The main thing is to follow the invariable rule - a minimum of everything.
  • Freedom of space. Freedom in a modern style does not mean the emptiness of the room, but the furniture and equipment in the house must be arranged so that you can move freely even in an apartment with a small area.
  • The floor should be free from all coatings. Modern style loves to “walk” on smooth surfaces. If the carpet has the right to be, then only with a short pile and plain.
  • Shine. You can not do without it, because the modern style implies the presence of metal and chrome, as well as glass and varnished surfaces. The main thing is not to overdo it.
  • Furniture of a modern style is simply obliged to have ideal forms. Clean, clear lines without draperies and creases. And no covers.
  • Windows should let in as much light as possible, and therefore should be large and open. This does not mean that the curtains are canceled. They just have to be translucent and light.
  • Lack of accessories. Of course, their complete absence is impossible, but this is not required. The fewer they will be in sight, the better the rule of cleanliness will be observed.
  • Art. He has a special role in the modern interior. A painting, sculpture or other art object will not only bring a bright accent to the design of the apartment, but also tell everyone about the tastes and passions of the owners of the house.
A modern interior is an organization of space in such a way that it meets all the requirements of a modern person.

Interior items that define modern style

Options for the execution and design of a modern style depend on those items that will be used in the interior. Separately, it must be said about the objects that make up the modern interior, because without them it is impossible to imagine a comfortable existence in the modern world. The list of items that are a distinctive feature of a modern interior includes:
  • Modern video and audio equipment;
  • Mobile, functional furniture;
  • Small rugs of neutral colors without a pattern or with a simple geometric pattern;
  • Venetian blinds or screens;
  • Elements of art: painting, sculpture, figurines, etc .;
  • Stylish modern accessories.
The main thing in the selection of furniture and accessories is to comply with the rule "better - when less." If all of the above rules are followed, then we can say with confidence that the interior of the home will look stylish and modern.
