The New Model Designers, Kerala : In a modern style house, all the design elements should be in harmony with each other. Simplicity is the key. Try to keep the design uncomplicated by avoiding too many separations such as long corridors or passages. Modern houses have larger concentrations of neutral colors such as cool whites, beige, light grey and cream, but it’s all right to have few splashes of bright or flashy colors, so long as they don’t dominate the design.
