Modern Organic — based on the balance between modern minimalism and the imperfect beauty of nature. Arrangements in this style harmoniously combine soft, organic forms and elegant contemporary elements to create warm, sophisticated and functional interiors.
Subdued color palette
Similar to minimalism, the Modern Organic style is based on neutral colors. However, you will not find monochromatic arrangements or contrasting black and white combinations here. Interiors in this style are primarily intended to be cozy, so a warm color palette is used. Opt for shades of off white, beiges and browns.

Oblique forms
The Modern Organic style interior lacks straight lines and sharp forms. Instead, opt for rounded shapes such as arcs. Choose furniture with curved edges for example an upholstered corner sofa, an oval coffee table or a rattan armchair with a gentle outline. Stairs and balustrades in organic shapes will also work great.

Natural materials
Choose wooden furniture and accessories. Especially striking will be those made of untreated wood. They will bring a touch of raw character to the interior. Complement them with stone countertops and floors for a harmonious effect. Don't forget about adding the subtle charm of fabrics such as cotton, linen and wool.

Flowers placed on shelves, bookcases or windowsills will add depth and three-dimensionality to the room.
