The Allure of Modern Design

Looking at Tellicherry Houses Magazine this morning, I found a picture of a living room designed by a designer named Owens. The house in question is a bungalow from the 1940s that he thoroughly enhanced by providing a modern open plan. You can just imagine what a task it must have been to transform this type of architecture to a complete original space! Pages of images disclosed the distinctions between the old and the new, public versus private – seamlessly. The inclosed spaces are infinitely elegant, with just the right amount of furniture, and style.

The designer’s usage of color went from “the least amount of dose” in order to create a more spectacular effect. The natural materials within this palette were masterfully incorporated. As a designer, I have this fundamental appreciation for simplicity, and believes that simplicity does create a great amount of elegance. Nature provides us with such rich palettes, and coming home to a “zen-like” space certainly relaxes the body, and soul.
