MODERNISM IN DESIGN

MODERNISM IN DESIGN

Can modernism in design be reached by following the evolving landscapes of design gurus and social media influencers? It’s not for us to judge. So perhaps the even better question is: what is modernism in design?

Modernism in design is all about escaping the fripperies of old-world design. And by that, we mean pre-war design. The modernist approach is to constantly highlight the clean lines and functionality instead of the embellishments that exaggerate the form when it comes to decor. Following the philosophy of form and function is our approach to modernism in design.
