Creating a Modern Aesthetic in Your Home

October 8, 2024
  • Share

Looking to redecorate your home? Or maybe just elevate the look of it? The modern aesthetic can do just that for your home. Whether we’re talking bedroom, living room, kitchen, or wherever else, the modern aesthetic can fit well into any of these spaces.

If you’re still not sure where to start, we’re here to give you some inspo on how you can execute this style.

Modern Aesthetic Home Ideas

Kitchen and Dining Room

If you’re looking to create a dining area that fits in with the modern aesthetic, you may want to stick with sleek items like this dining table. The dining chairs also have a more unique design that adds to the whole modern aesthetic of everything.

Here is a more elevated version of a modern dining room. While the over theme of the style is the same, the design certainly differs. This dining room is much more fancy and luxurious-looking. The drop-down teardrop lights play into that overall expensive look. Similarly, though, both dining areas are kept very minimalistic.

As you can probably start to tell, there are many ways to style and design a dining room to fit the modern aesthetic. It is a pretty wide range of designs so you can still very much customize everything to your exact liking. This dining room for example, while still on-theme with modern, exudes a feeling of warmth and coziness. This is similar to the first dining room shown but contrasts greatly with the dining room above, which is more cool-toned. Neither option is “right” or “wrong”, it’s just about what kind of vibes you’d want for your dining room.

Bedroom

There are also plenty of ways to style and design and modern bedroom. One of the key pieces in doing so is finding a bedframe that matches the aesthetic as well. After all, it is one of, if not the centerpiece of the bedroom.

Here is another way to design a bedroom under the modern aesthetic. This bedroom uses warmer tones to create a cozier feeling while still maintaining the overall theme of the space. The color and tones of furniture you choose can affect how the space turns out, even if they’re all under the same ‘modern aesthetic’.

Living Room

This living room is on the more casual side. The furniture is all very clean and modern in design. The use of light, neutral colors helps make the room more “cool-toned”. And as you can see, the lighting here also matches the modern aesthetic, tying the whole space together.

Here is another cool-toned modern living room. This living room here is much more minimalistic and sleek. It exudes a sense of luxury and “expensive-ness”. The abstract chandelier is also a nice touch to bring everything together.

Nour Arida’s (@nouraridaofficial) Paris apartment Nour Arida’s (@nouraridaofficial) Paris apartment was designed to feel like a little piece of Beirut — a pied-à-terre that keeps her connected to Lebanon while living in France.
Architect Carl Gerges @carlgergesarchitects built the whole interior around warmth and softness: a caramel sofa, a pink kitchen, milky whites throughout. Nothing sharp, nothing cold. The palette reads as indulgent without trying. It’s the kind of space that feels like it was chosen for comfort first and aesthetics second, even though both are clearly considered.
What’s easy to miss is the restraint underneath it all. The softness works because it’s disciplined. Every piece earns its place in the same tonal story.
→ Save this if you’re building a warm, tonal interior from scratch.

London based interior designers at Studio Ashby @s London based interior designers at Studio Ashby @studioashby along with French architect Antoinette Zalewski @antoinettezalewskiarchitecte transformed this St Germain residence from two separate units into a seamless, elevated whole. New parquet floors, restored panelling, a bespoke staircase, and custom rugs. Every detail shaped by skilled fine craftsmen and a serene, neutral palette drawn from the colours of Paris itself. ✨

Good food, beautiful interiors, and time well spent with family.
Always nice to be back here.

Why do Paris apartments feel so much better than e Why do Paris apartments feel so much better than everything else?
While living in this cute 3 bed 2 bath apartment in the 6ème, I realized it comes down to a few things done really well:
• High ceilings
They create space without adding anything
• Herringbone wood floors
Classic, subtle, and never go out of style
• Crown molding + ceiling medallions
The detail that quietly elevates the entire room
• Interior French doors
They give you openness and separation at the same time
• Natural light
The one thing you can’t fake
I’m staying in this adorable pied-a-terre for a two months. It is my sister and brother in law’s place; they invited me to cozy up here on my own while they are back home in LA.
Every room keeps proving the same point. It’s not about adding more. It’s about getting the foundation right.
If you could only bring one of these Paris apartment design elements into your home, which one would it be?

It is warmer here now, but these were the looks I It is warmer here now, but these were the looks I reached for in Paris when the days were still cold. ❄️
I remember building each outfit around a coat or a scarf, with comfortable shoes that could take me anywhere, knowing I would be out for hours just walking.
Nothing overthought, just pieces that felt right for the pace of the day.
What would be your OOTD for a cold day in Paris?
