We thought this was a pretty nifty idea for casual outdoor gatherings: from Spanish retailer El Corte Ingles, foldable, portable outdoor tables with pre-printed tabletop game boards. Metal legs support a 27-inch square MDF table top, printed with clean, bright graphics. We especially like the simple lines and all-white color — Continue reading

Reclaimed wood, a sweet modern slot for any type of succulent that speaks to your soul–what more does a modern design lover with a lovely backyard or outdoor area need? Nothing, that’s what.

The folks behind Imanna Arkitekter Architecture, who designed the Summer Cabin 4:12 project in Ingarö, Sweden, must really understand that while we love walking around and enjoying nature, we’re both terrified of bears and prefer a soft place to lay our heads down at night. What appears to be a — Continue reading
With so many modern conveniences that enable us to live in perfectly comfortable houses year round, it’s easy to forget that for a very long time, a comfortable interior existence depending on an architect or builder’s ability to situate a structure just so in a landscape so that sun, shade, — Continue reading
What does the perfect intersection between traditional, country style and modernism look like? Like this incredible home by dva arhitekta located in Bijaca, Bosnia and Herzegovina. “The approach of the proposal was to develop a residential complex in strong connection to the context.

Or like if you landed on an — Continue reading
Isn’t this modern house so full of fall feelings, colors and inspiration?

Everything this house has! Called — Continue reading
Whoa! Now this is an interior we can get behind. It’s something we can get behind because it’s not so much an interior space as an almost outside/inside space. Loving this house with the huge platform, stage-like rooms that completely blur the line of what is outside and what is — Continue reading
Ooh! This home we found on Architizer not only includes a tiny, pod-like modern shape and size, but it is also comfortably nestled amongst some nature. Two of our favorite things when we look for cool modern architecture! Seriously though, this one has some amazing views that were specifically framed. It’s almost — Continue reading
Last night I was thinking about getting business cards with rounded corners and I thought to myself how nice rounded corners are. They’re still structural but not too harsh. They still tell a shape story but just not scream it from the rooftops. They are sleek, but also kind of — Continue reading

We love a simple, clean house. What’s more modern than that? Providing a family with clear designs, efficient space solutions, sensible materials that look good and modern sensibilities that create a comforting, warm home, that’s modern design, don’t you think?
