Tastes in home design can change as quickly as in any other area in terms of what’s hot and what’s not. However, although there are some timeless designs, a few tips on current trends can help to keep a home looking completely modern. One key aspect of this process of design and creation is to use good quality materials and ensure they are properly maintained and fitted. With professional assistance, a home of any age and style can look and feel so much more special.
Ultra-modern design trends
Three simple words can help a budding designer create a feel of the ultra-modern in their own home. The concepts described by these three words work together to build a fresh and truly contemporary feel. The words in question are space, simplicity and technology.
In terms of space, modern design gets rid of the clutter and uses the available floor area to maximum functional effect. Open space design or the appearance of open space design, in areas such as the dining room and living room, can let the interior breathe for a fresh and airy feel. Within the open space approach, simplicity means that the items that are incorporated into the design, such as work surfaces or the work area in a study or kitchen should be as accessible as possible and designed with clean lines and the minimum number of accessories and extras. Finally, the addition of technology into a simple open space demands, in contemporary terms, that hi-tech items such as a flat-screen display, are integrated into the design as a whole rather than being placed on top of it, like an afterthought.

Color schemes
The colors in an ultra-modern design can, as always, be chosen according to personal taste. However, in line with the idea of simplicity, a small number of clean-looking colors is generally preferred, with just one or two highlights in a bolder color. With an otherwise fairly neutral color base, such as a shade of light brown or one or two pastels hues, a splash of bright red or blue can add a vital element of interest that stands out much more as a result of the comparatively gentle background.

Furniture
Selecting
the right furniture, in terms of both color and shape, is an important element
in creating a clear home design with a feeling of space. Pieces with geometric
shapes are part of the modern look and by positioning well-designed furniture
to maximum effect; the space available in even a smaller room or apartment can
be accentuated, resulting in a light, spacious, contemporary atmosphere. Good
use of drapes or other furniture items can even create an open space feel in a
home that was not originally designed that way.
Flooring
One
important element of home design that should not to be overlooked is the
flooring.
