These two 100 square metre home designs are the epitome of elegant modernity, depicted in light and airy palettes of soft white, whispers of pale grey and moments of natural wood tone. We will tour one contemporary home that comes alive with neat Scandinavian chic and a hint of warm boho vibes, designed as an escape from the homeowner couple’s demanding business trips. Next we’ll fall into a comfortably curvaceous decor scheme with sleek styling, unique silhouettes and intriguing glass partitions, which include a pocket door kitchen and a master bedroom closet/ensuite combo. Floor plans are included at the end of each home tour for layout inspiration.
In Kyiv, Ukraine, our first elegantly modern 100 square metre home interior is an apartment that was designed for a young couple. The homeowners spend a lot of time travelling for business, so they wanted their home to be all of the comfort and ease that they lack on these trips–an “air castle”. Natural wood furniture, rattan round coffee tables and natural flax textiles make up an earthy decor palette. Living plants add enlivening layers. 
Partitions have been kept to a minimum in the space to ensure easy flow of living and light. A chic white textured rug pulls the elements of the lounge together in the open plan. 
A pair of oversized glass vases make a charming chunky centrepiece on the modern wood dining table. Smoky grey seat cushions punctuate light cane dining chairs. 
To the opposite side of the dining room, a one wall kitchen builds a face of terrazzo texture. A white and wood kitchen island stretches out in front, under a contemporary island light. 
A well stocked modern fruit bowl accessories the end of the pure white kitchen countertop. 
Pure white kitchen stools contrast against the warm wood kitchen island. The black frame of the kitchen pendant lights creates a brief colour link with the room’s modern black window frames. 
Wooden cutting boards are propped decoratively against the white terrazzo kitchen backsplash. 
A decorative basket wall marks the end of the kitchen run, and creates an engaging focal point from the home entryway down the hall. 
The cozy bedroom scheme is formed with tactile elements and cloud white furniture. An end of bed bench blends into the white bed base, with each lifted on Scandinavian style timber legs. 
Tan accent pillows warm up the white platform bed and matching crisp bed set. Macramé tassels trim a decorative wall mirror, giving the fresh space a relaxed boho vibe. 
A stylish lounge chair takes the tan accent to the window area, where dried pampas grass lolls in a tall glass vase. 
A soft grey bed throw complements a lightweight curtain divider behind the headboard. 
On the other side of the bedroom’s curtain room divider, a modern vanity table and matching vanity chair make up an elegant makeup station. 
Porcelain tiles surround a wonderfully rustic yet modern double sink bathroom vanity, which is accessorised with rattan baskets in the storage nook underneath. Simple spherical bathroom vanity lights join the glow of backlit racetrack vanity mirrors. 
A woven mat makes a beautiful textural link with the rattan baskets, and lays down an eye-catching approach to a round Japanese soaking bathtub. 
Heated towel rails dry bathroom linens. 
Interior doors in this home cut all the way to the ceiling, creating one clean, uninterrupted line.

Staying in Kyiv, Ukraine, we move on into a 100 square metre home with a curvaceous modular sofa. 
A round pedestal dining table is positioned to make the most of the room’s natural light by the window, whilst the TV lounge utilises a suitably shady spot at the back of the room. 
Unique dining chairs encircle the round table, which includes a useful lazy susan server at its centre. 
Twin glass pocket doors open up the kitchen, entering the room at either side of a central kitchen island. 
Geometric floor tiles dance across the floor and shake up the kitchen backsplash, bringing wild pattern to an otherwise tranquil kitchen design. 
Three modern wall sconces drop a column of light upon the stylish kitchen island, which houses a clean white integrated oven and a set of gas burners. 
The round gold wall sconce is a burst of sunshine next to a column of recessed golden shelving. 
Daylight flows through the translucent walls of the wardrobe. 
A second gold wall sconce illuminates an elongated floating dressing table and comfortable vanity chair. 
The round modern wall sconce design makes its last appearance inside the bathroom, where a sunken bathtub dips into an expanded vanity volume, right up alongside the bathroom sink. 
Diagonal floor planks toy with the illusion of space in the compact room. 
Tall vanity mirrors exaggerate the height of the room.
