Defining Modern Design


Modern design is an exciting hot trend that speaks to many of our clients who want bright open spaces. Modern design has its roots as a response to the detailed design eras such as the Victorian and the Gothic eras, which were characterized as extremely ornate.

Modernism is the result of a focused effort of clients to simplify their lives. When we complete a modern bathroom, our clients benefit from our efforts to curate and specify meaningful fixtures, vanities, shower systems and other components of the remodeling project in a strategic way that results in a clean space with minimal clutter.

Modern design often calls on our team to do more with less. It requires observation, innovation and stimulation. Modern design is an exciting option, because it gives our clients and our team the opportunity to challenge themselves and their surroundings.

Modern design can be difficult to define, however, there are several central characteristics and design themes seen throughout modern design.
