Modern interior design derives its influences from the modern art movement that preceded modern design. In painting, Modernism began with the Impressionists and others who used abstraction. Modern interior design grew out of the decorative arts, notably <a href="http://www.dwellcandy.com/interior-design-styles-2/art-deco/" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; color: #fd8107; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; position: relative; text-decoration: none;">Art Deco</a>, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It reached its peak in the 1950’s and 1960’s, which is why designers and decorators today may refer to modern design as being “mid-century.”</div>

Modern design uses geometric shapes, including rigid squares and rectangles along with smooth curves (“clean lines”). Perfect circles and ovals are also common in modern interior design. Modern interior design is also generally very simple and even minimal (see: <a href="http://www.dwellcandy.com/interior-design-styles/minimalist/" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; color: #fd8107; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; position: relative; text-decoration: none;">Minimalist</a>), with few ornamental flourishes to interrupt the even, unbroken lines and flat surfaces.</li>

Wood and plastic are common, though designers often paint over wood with an opaque finish to cover the natural wood grain. Some designers do use natural wood as an organic contrast to more artificial shapes and materials. Glossy metals, such as stainless steel, are among the signature materials in modern interior spaces. The metal may be used for anything from the legs of a chair to the body of a lamp. Modern interior designers also make use of glass and plastic for their smooth, even surfaces.</li>

Check out our industrial "<a href="http://elegantfindsforyourhome.com/abdita1.html" target="_blank">Abelie Dining Table</a>". Industrial interior design is popular for decorating lofts and old buildings converted into living spaces, although it can be used for traditional apartments and houses too. What you need for this style is to create an illusion of rough surfaces and materials that suggest an industrial past. The simplest way to show roughness is to leave some walls or surfaces unfinished. In addition to some rough metal elements that will create an industrial atmosphere, you are looking for old industrial-looking objects that are made from steel, metal or wood. These items are preferably worn down or have been salvaged and recycled. For more ideas, check out the gallery below.</div>

Shades and tones of gray work well when mixed with white to add a crisp, clean look.</li>

Walls should also incorporate large pieces of art.</li>

It can be as rough and patchy as you want it to be. Timber or stone flooring are also good finishes that will help you achieve the industrial look.</li>

Plants will also inject life and color into any environment so look for a few really great large leaf plants and some significant pots to house them.</li>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">The simplest way to create <a href="http://elegantfindsforyourhome.com/gude.html" target="_blank">distressed furniture</a> is to make use of small grain sandpaper. With brand new pieces that are sporting an original coat of paint, it is necessary to apply another coat. Painting furniture with another coat of a different color makes it possible to prepare the piece for distressing. Once the new coat is dry, use the sandpaper to gently thin the topcoat around the angles and any carvings in the piece. The idea is to allow the underlying coat to peek through the topcoat here and there, as if the paint were time worn.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">The same basic approach can be applied to stained and varnished wood furniture as well. However, instead of painting furniture with a new topcoat, the object is to use steel wool or sandpaper to gently rub away some of the finish at strategic locations around the piece. For example, if the piece has a beveled lip around the surface, that is an ideal place to apply a light sanding and provide an aged look. Carved legs also offer excellent opportunities to use the steel wool or sandpaper to gently age the look of the piece.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Another way to create distressed furniture is to use lengths of chain that are several different sizes. This idea works especially well with wooden pieces such as<a href="http://elegantfindsforyourhome.com/guild-dining-tables.html" target="_blank"> dining tables</a>, <a href="http://elegantfindsforyourhome.com/guild-cabinets.html" target="_blank">wardrobes</a>, and <a href="http://elegantfindsforyourhome.com/cocota2.html" target="_blank">coffee tables</a>. To create the look of years of accumulated nicks and dents in the surface of the wood, use the length of chain like a whip and strike the surface of the wood. This action will leave small marks in the grain and give the new furniture an appearance of having seen many years of use. The dings can be filled in with stain, which will help to enhance the overall aged look.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">It is important to note that in addition to knowing how to distress furniture, it is also a good idea to know when a particular piece is a good candidate for distressing. If the newly produced furniture is styled after furnishings from several decades back, it will probably look natural to distress the piece. However, if the design of the furniture is of more recent vintage, distressing the piece is likely to look artificial and out of place.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><a href="http://elegantfindsforyourhome.com/" target="_blank">Distressed furniture</a> can create a warm feeling in a room by conveying a sense of continuity with the past. However, care must be taken to not overdo the treatment. The idea with distressed furniture is to create a look that appears to be from years of loving use, not the appearance of a piece of furniture that has been greatly abused.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><br /></span><br />

Inspired by royalty and with understated elegance, the St Andrews Collection by <a href="http://store.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/fcoki.html" target="_blank">Bradshaw Kirchofer</a> was<br />
named after the place Kate and William met, at St Andrews University in Scotland.<br />
Featuring a soft palette of ocean aqua, whisper beige and a blushing, vintage pink, the<br />
line boasts artisan-applied craftsmanship for a lightly distressed, care-worn look<br />
reminiscent of English classics.<br />
<br />
The collection features a range of mix-and-match furniture pieces, such as a day bed,<br />
twin bed, dressers, side tables and a tall wardrobe. Other special features include<br />
curved lines, ornate, gold crown accents and intricate, hand-carved wood patterns.<br />
Made from 100 percent natural, solid pine, the St Andrews Collection may look vintage,<br />
but it’s sturdy enough to last a lifetime. <br />
<br />
The <a href="http://store.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/standa.html" target="_blank">Daybed</a> is handmade from solid pine wood, finished by hand and shown in Vintage Pink.<br />
<br />
The <a href="http://store.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/swpeaca.html" target="_blank">Cabinet</a> is full of charm and character with a beveled edge mirrored back shelf above a base with three deep drawers and two cupboards.<br />

Today's kitchens are where people congregate. Spacious <a href="http://store.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/kitchenislands1.html" target="_blank">kitchen islands</a>, banquettes, better technology, and integrated offices give families space to hang out, work, and dine in one central space.</div>

As the kitchen has evolved into a type of living room, islands have become a popular feature because of their versatility. They can serve as the primary work space, a secondary work space, extra storage, or a spot for multiple cooks to spread out.</div>

Edgy Classic is perfect for traditionalists who like to add a little of the unexpected. (You're the kind of girl who wears a little black dress accessorized with hot pink shoes.) Edgy Classic embraces the past while simultaneously welcoming the contemporary – it's grand, but not fussy. The elements of a traditional room are given a twist – drapes are still long and full but streamlined and don't puddle on the ground; <a href="http://store.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/z-37.html" target="_blank">modern chairs</a> and/or sofas reside in the same seating areas as their antique ancestors; modern fabrics cover vintage pieces; and crystal chandeliers hang over it all. Be sure to add some antique accents but bridge the casual and the formal with clean-lined pieces. Most of all, have fun with this look – a white bust of Elvis can look scrumptious next to an oversized antique gilt mirror.<br />

When you take the big step towards revamping your home,
we understand how difficult it can be to choose the right furniture. There are
just so many different styles, colors and designs out there and it can feel
like you’re drowning in a sea of possibilities. Thankfully, Apartment Therapy
offers a little bit of guidance in that department, hopefully easing the
process, if even by just a little bit.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
In one of its recent articles, Apartment Therapy offers <b><a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/choosing-the-right-furniture-c-127418">“5
Tips for Choosing the Right Furniture”</a></b>, and we thought it would be a good
idea to break it down for you.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
First off, consider the construction of the piece and
make sure that it is solid and sturdy enough to last you for years. Many homeowners
will opt for a cheaper product but don’t take into consideration that it may be
offered at a lower price for a reason. You may spend a little more now, but you’ll
definitely be saving in the long run. Next, take a good hard look at the
silhouette. Keep in mind that you want to keep this furniture for as long as
possible; are you still going to love this shape five years from now? There are
plenty of pieces available that are both beautiful in shape and timeless in
style – don’t settle.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
Once that has been sorted out, the finish is the next
step. A piece can be completely transformed just by changing the color or stain
of any exposed wood. It’s important to keep this in mind if you’re looking to
make a particular statement with your new furniture. The same goes for the
fabric as well. According to the article, “if this is a piece of furniture that
will be used frequently, it is suggested to choose a slightly darker fabric.”</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
Lastly, go for the unexpected! Your home is a reflection
of yourself, so give it a little bit of personality. As you’ll have already
noticed from reading through previous blog posts, the inventory at <b><a href="http://store.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/" target="_blank">Elegant Finds for Your Home</a></b> is full of wonderful pieces that make a statement in any
room. You’ll be sure to find something that speaks to you!</div>

classified as “whimsical”, there has be some sort of completely wild and
crazy element involved. While that may be true in some cases, each and every piece does not have to be<i> totally</i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"></i> out there. The whole idea behind
whimsical furniture is to have it stand out on its own and make a statement.</div>

just how bold you want to be. Take for example a chest of drawers; to be considered whimsical, you’ll have to take a look not only at the way
that it was painted and textured, but at the way in which it was crafted as well.
Often times, you’ll find that a whimsical chest isn’t carved in straight lines,
but rather with curves instead (think Willy Wonka style). For example, notice that the <b><a href="http://store.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/88-3183.html">Lark and Vine
Chest</a></b> and the <b><a href="http://store.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/84-1045.html">Chevron
Chest</a></b> from the <b><a href="http://store.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/" target="_blank">Elegant Finds for Your Home</a></b> collection are both sporting an
unusual shape. Neither is designed with an outrageous pattern, but yet they are
both still categorized as whimsical. </div>

Our <b><a href="http://store.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/84-4001.html">Leopard Chest</a></b>
speaks for itself on why it can be considered a whimsical piece. In our opinion, it would be
very difficult to decorate a room where this particular piece of furniture <i>wouldn't</i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"> </i>stand out!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The key to whimsical furniture is just to have fun while bringing
a little bit of your fun personality out in the décor. Always keep in mind that nothing is too
outrageous in whimsical design!</div>

When you browse through the <b><a href="http://store.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/" target="_blank">Elegant Finds for Your Home</a></b>
inventory, you will find that one of our greatest features is that many of our
pieces are hand-painted. So what is it about this type of furniture that leaps
out and catches the attention of people like yourself? Well if we had to guess,
we’d say it had a little something to do with the character these pieces add to
a room.</div>

<b><a href="http://store.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/" target="_blank">Hand-painted furniture</a></b> not only brings a certain uniqueness
to any room, but it gives the owner a sense that this one piece was custom
designed to fit their energy and personality. So many homes are filled with the
same plain-looking furniture, and while that is all well and good, there’s
nothing special about it.</div>

that you have to sacrifice your classic sense of style though. Many pieces
(especially in our collection) are highlighted with simple touches that accent even
the most elegant of homes – such as the <b><a href="http://store.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/oval-drop-leaf-table-crossroads-silvery-leaves-with-hand-painted-border.html" target="_blank">oval drop leaf table</a></b> with a beautifully
hand-painted border. However, if you <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">are</i>
seeking a piece that makes a bold statement, we’ve got plenty of those as well –
this<a href="http://store.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/thdrchc.html" target="_blank"> <b>colorful three drawer chest</b></a> is one of our favorites!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
No matter your own personal style, even the simplest of
hand-painted furniture works to enhance the aesthetics of a home. Due to the
fact that it isn’t just another plain piece, all eyes will instantly be drawn
to it, whether it’s a grand dining table or a small corner table, that little
pop of individuality will bring any room to life!</div>

Right around the time that we start to feel the holiday
season creep around the corner is about the time we should start thinking about
our home furniture. Now that might sound a little confusing but think about it
– if you’re the one who is constantly being elected to host each season’s big
event, you should really consider filling your home with furniture that you can
be proud of.</div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
With the Thanksgiving feast coming up and Christmas
dinner with the family following quickly in its wake, stop and ask yourself
what your guests will be dining on this year. Are you planning to pull the fold-up,
plastic tables out of storage like last year and the year before that? We
thought so. Take it from someone who has spent many a holiday meal at one of
those tables, it’s no fun. </div>

Transform your home with warm, easy and classic neutral
tones this year as certain colors take on new roles. For example, Pantone
emphasizes that leathery browns will become more important as a basic, light
blues and navy take center stage and the color olive becomes bolder. It’s
becoming more and more apparent that 2013 will be the year of sophistication
for the home décor world.</div>

<span style="font-size: medium;"><em>A dressing table adds a touch of romance and
glamor to any woman’s bedroom. These pieces of furniture are coming back into
fashion as women seek more<a href="http://www.elegantfindsforyourhome.com/" target="_blank"> elegance in their lives</a>. Akiko Busch, in her book
"Geography of Home" refers to a dressing table as "a place to indulge one's
fancies and compose one's soul." <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhKYbBUwwQx7503rLAtamodzgPx7a21HaRB9meEQSaSJdTNlwcT_LRLFgeEtMNsGWwSuYqzaCgFGBwOQ6rQXGc4DQTP8zbFY7cEKhHVX7HMaq9AvaoPL6qnklsysCNiByVZyfuK39QMI4/s1600/dressing+table+via+blog.vintagerevival.co.nz.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a><em><span style="font-size: medium;">Dressing tables
originated in 18th century France. They were called ‘toilette’ or ‘toilet
tables’ because women used to wrap their cosmetic items in a small, square linen
cloth (the toilette) before they put them in a chest.</span></em></em></span>Wanda Wadehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00379198081321757565noreply@blogger.com0
