Modern Interior Design Tips For Your Home

By Chase Perry


Have you always wanted your home to have that sleek and modern feel? If you're getting really tired of your old carpet your cat won't even sit on, or that peeling wallpaper on your walls, it is time to think big and start some long overdue refurbishment.

Modern homes usually have 3 basic qualities: they are clean, they are minimalist, but they're bold on all the right places as well. Achieving this type of look for your own space takes careful preparation and research. Your goal is to create a modern space that fits your lifestyle, your funds, and your individuality. To help you picture the things you need, here are a few interior design ideas.

Regardless of the room you are working on, remember that the furniture you are going to use is the single most vital element because it is the centre of activity and the largest piece in any room. It is therefore imperative to choose furniture that's clean, minimalist, and sleek following your home's theme. Any accessory you put should also go well with such furniture. Invest in a good couch, dining set, cabinets, and tables. When buying furniture, always think long-term! The sturdier it is, the longer you can use and enjoy it at home.

Achieving a modern Singapore interior design usually requires getting the colour palette right. Think black and white or neutrals and creams for the large pieces (furniture, walls, ceiling, and floor). Like a cherry on top, put touches of bold colours like reds, blues, yellows and oranges on smaller pieces like decorative vases, pillows, and paintings. In place of these small decorative pieces, other homes choose bigger ones that make a statement, such as painting one whole wall in the living room with bold colours. This adds character to a living room with a predominantly black-and-white palette. If in doubt, you can always consult an interior designer Singapore.

When choosing everything else that has to go to a room, ensure that the designs are simple and clutter-free. Busy patterns such as laces and florals are best used very carefully. If you really need to use them, choose just one pattern and use it only once in each room.
