Modern Doesn't Mean Cold

Happy Thursday everyone! Are you having a good week so far? My son turned two yesterday so we celebrated at the happiest place...Disneyland! He had a blast which made us very happy! Anyways, let's  talk modern furniture today!

Modern furniture is usually thought of as cold and not comfortable. But by using warm fabrics and adding a lot of texture and visual interest, you can create an warm and inviting interior space.

Glass House

Have you heard of that new TV show, The Glass House? It airs on Mondays at 9pm on ABC. My hubby is working on the show so I have been watching! 


14 contestants living in a house are competing for a cash prize. But lets forget about the show, the house is just awesome!! My favorite part of these reality shows is the design of the houses. The art department really does a great job at designing these interior spaces.

This house incorporates a lot of glass...especially the outside! We can see right through the whole house. It is very modern and kinda reminds me of a night club. Very cool!

I love the kitchen island with what appears to be cracked shattered glass raised bar. And those stools are very modern and fun!

The sitting room has a sectional with two organic looking coffee tables. I just love those pillows!

The living room is very modern but also has a traditional play on it as well. I LOVE that lamp! The bright green round chairs look like so much fun to move around for different seating options.

I love all the fun patterned throw pillows on the seating bench near the Jacuzzi area. And that basket with the striped towels is such a stylish idea!

This bedroom is very cool and masculine. That design on the wall reminds me of the X games for some reason. Or maybe a little rock and roll! That side table is such an interesting design and a red floor! Wow!

This bedroom is simply elegant but that pattern really grabs your attention.

The bathroom is amazing! I would love to take a shower in that spacious glass shower (minus being in front of cameras and fellow contestants of course)! Aren't those steel vessel sinks gorgeous?! The wall of circles for storage with lighting definitely makes a statement.  

This little lounge area is so stylish and relaxing. I really would like to know how comfy those chairs are!

Bright Style

Mini pendants may be small in size however they are big in style! They are a fun and playful way to add some light to a desk or kitchen island. I feel that by hanging mini pendants in a group adds a modern style rather than having one large lighting fixture. The standard rule is to hang your lights about 30 inches above your surface but for a cool effect, you can also try staggering the heights!
