Beginning in the living room, the eye is tantalised by an abundance of rich shades under atmospheric lighting. A flatscreen TV is nestled in the midst of a chic panel design, situated behind a low slung modern entertainment unit that has been decorated with classic accessories. Over on the plush couch, both the standard back cushions and scatter cushions alternate in color, introducing a soft heather hue to cool cream upholstery. A huge piece of floral wall art above the seating area ties in the tones and rains added elegance over the space.

Sophisticated Home With Asian Tone

A plush home interior with many beautiful ideas for decoration and furnishings, covering living room, dining, bedroom and bathroom...

The pool is a tranquil area for rest and relaxation under clear skies; poolside planting ties the sun patio in with the homes wider green setting.

Contemporary Home in the Hills

A posh residence in New Zealand

Huge 'legs' steady the structure on a grassy hillside with heather gardens.

Futuristic Villa In Vienna

An amazing work of futuristic architectural design, with ice white interior and highly contemporary kitchen.

The main house, a wellness center and guest house all share the space behind the entrance gates at 1232 Sunset Plaza. All three structures hum with a warm Californian appeal, contained in crisp and bold architecture that is distinctly on the modern spectrum.

Contemporary Architecture and Interiors on Sunset Strip

A contemporary home design with airy modern architecture, luxury interiors and panoramic views over the city.

Matching table lamps provide a quiet symmetry in the living room, where a large area rug brightens the dark stained wood floor.

Crisp Home Design

A chic neutral decor scheme with cool contemporary design furnishings and features.

Quilted covers warm up the six dining chairs in this open plan lounge-diner, where a rustic table on heavy steel legs fits in perfectly with this stark home scene.

Industrial Style Home Design

An industrial style home design featuring see-through floors, a garden filled light well and a sofa pit.

A home like this is clearly designed to suit warm, low wind climates–lets face it, there would be newspapers, scatter cushions and possibly even small children scuttling along in the choppy wind of many chillier places on the globe–but the idyllic still calm of these peaceful surroundings offer a perfect sanctuary to a wide open dwelling.

Stone Walled Home with Wow Factor

A large contemporary home with retractable glazed walls, beautifully manicured landscaping and private pool.

From the L shaped architecture, the poolside sun terrace is accessible at two sides, which makes the deck become a useful part of the overall floor space.

Sunny Open Plan Limantos Residence

A sunshine filled space with retractable glazed walls that give access to a huge sun terrace and pool.

The highly polished monochrome interior design is staged upon an attention grabbing floor treatment, which shows off a slick graphic that waves and swirls down the entire length of the room.

Black and White Graphic Decor

A highly polished interior design that uses the graphic contrast of deepest black and brightest white.

Lounge decor

Home Design in Harmony with Nature

A sophisticated home design that is built in, around, and through lush green vegetation, making nature truly a part of the home.

Private pool

Posh Portuguese Residence With Beautiful Lake Views

Stunning Portuguese home situated in the Algarve, featuring sweeping views through glass walls.

Careful restoration and renovation of the uppermost sloped ceilinged space has resulted in a unique dwelling that is filled with premium materials, and executed to a high finish.

Swedish Attic Apartment

A fresh white decor scheme over a quirky open plan attic apartment in Stockholm, Sweden.

The open plan living area is arranged around a central column where a subtle gray console table is brightened by two sunshine yellow vases at each end. The colorful additions are contrasted by a blue wall clock above the flatscreen TV.

Blue and Yellow Home Decor

A refreshing home decor scheme with fresh blasts of blue and yellow color with the furniture and accessories.

Fresh white was used as the predominant base color to keep the apartment feeling spacious and airy, and the highly reflective floor helps to lift the whole scheme.

Vibrant Blue and Purple Apartment Decor

Modest open plan apartment decorated in shades of blue and purple in the living room, and relaxing neutrals in the bedroom.

The first of this duo of designs is a home in Kiev, which has a feminine feel without resorting to the all too overused pink and sparkly, or fuzzy red love hearts, though this visual does have a funky lipstick-red current running through it that has been clashed with purple-pink and a zesty splash of orange. The apartment was designed for a young girl “living in the rhythm of the 'Big City”.

Homes with a Colorful City Vibe

Two city apartments that embrace a multitude of colorful accent pieces to bring a funky vibe throughout the interior.

Rooted on the vertical face of a coastal headland, this residence revels in sweeping views of stunning natural surroundings, and is blessed with a mild coastal climate that has allowed for a flowing integration of interior and exterior spaces.

Oceanfront House With Pool, California

This lovely Californian home has been designed to have sociable interior and exterior spaces, welcoming to family and friends.

An entire wall has been dedicated to a home library of books, on dramatic dark shelving.

Dreamy Interiors

Five contemporary home interiors based on the soft neutral color palette.

Quirky artwork adorns the wall of the living area.

Architect’s Villa in Saint-Tropez

A chic vacation home nestled on the hillside of l'Escalet, with panoramic views over the Mediterranean Sea.

Massive works of art adorn the wall above the sofa, depicting dramatic landscapes in tones of black and white; these compliment the stark black window frames of the towering dual height windows.

Clean Modern Decor

A beautiful black and white interior of a modern home, featuring an open plan layout and large walk-in closet.

Entertainment room

Michael Jordan’s $16 million House

Basketball fans and interior design enthusiasts alike will love this trip around Michael Jordan's impressive mansion.

Each dining space in the home is marked out with a run of attractive pendant lights.

Spacious City Dwelling

A beautifully decorated, city based family apartment with 'smart home' functionality.

Another level was created with the addition of a new mansard roof, to house private quarters with individual rooms. A dressing room, bedroom and bathroom fill the added floor area beneath the slopes. The decision to create a mansard level in the house was made by the architects based on being an easier and cheaper way to attain reconstruction approval, and all of the planning solutions for this home came about in answer to the restricted dimensions of the location.

Small Apartment with Snug Storage

A cozy small home design, with a second floor built under the eaves that incorporates a den-like sleep zone.

The view from one end to the other of the huge living area is completely unobstructed, making the home appear cavernous and perhaps a little cold–though a big splash of color chases the chills away in the form of funky wall art above a dining sideboard.

Cavernous Cool Interior

A huge open plan interior decorated in wood tone and black against a white backdrop.

Aside from making a striking statement, the 'winged' roof provides extra shelter over the outdoor areas, as well as filtering the bright Australian sunlight to the rooms within.

The Wing House, Australia

See an amazing example of contemporary architecture that has its own 'wing-span'!

A quirky arrangement of wall cabinets makes the kitchen area appear larger than it's actual proportions, as the added interest drags the eye up and around the room.

Small Apartments

A scattering of small home design inspiration for modest modern homes.

In this airy lounge-diner, all of the main items of furniture have been kept pale to match the walls, which makes the addition of a chartreuse area rug all the more unexpected. The zingy color works beautifully against white, and smaller black side pieces.

Glowing Interior Designs

A set of sparkling interior designs with fresh features to bring interest and color to the home.

Our first visit is to an attic above the old fishermen's harbour of Camogli, a village near Genova. The project, by architectural firm gosplan, aimed to incorporate a living room, a kitchen, a studio, two bedrooms and a bathroom into the flat, despite the awkward shaped gambrel roof and the tiny floor area. The outcome is described as being halfway between existenzminimum (a subsistence dwelling) and a fashionable Le-Corbusierian cabanon.

Simple Design Vs Super Design

Two opposite design styles for two small open plan modern apartments.
