Modern home dcor brightens up any modern house, and you will find a fabulous range of modern home accents online to meet any requirement. While some people like their homes to retain a traditional look, with old or colonial style furniture and furnishings, many prefer a modern look, with clean lines and large areas of solid color.

If you belong to the latter group, then you have a wonderful selection of modern home dcor options from which you are sure to find something to meet your needs. Not only is there an almost unlimited selection of home dcor accessories such as vases, prints and other items available online, but also a fabulous selection of modern lighting options that can make all the difference to your home.

The home interior design accessories detailed below are just some of those that can find online, and are presented as examples of what can be done with a little bit of flair and imagination.

Genuine Modern Art

Among the home interior design options available are a wide selection of original modern abstract art, painted onto canvas and available in a wide range of sizes. Some are single pieces, while others are composites, consist of two, three or even four paintings that can be hung side by side to present the idea the artist is conveying. These are not prints, but originals painted by international artists.

Nothing looks better in your home than a genuine oil painting, and if you have a contemporary home then an abstract oil painting is an ideal form of modern home dcor to complete any style of home interior design. You can’t beat it, and each painting will be a conversation piece in its own right and each is easily affordable. You needn’t pay Picasso prices for these paintings!

Table Decoration: Bowls and Trays

Table decoration in the form of bowls and trays is clean and sharp, and will offset any softness in your home furnishings. If you are seeking the sharp angular look then a 16 in x 10 in square wavy aluminum tray on your coffee table would contrast with the softness of the cushions on your sofa.

Alternatives are a triangular tray or even a square pointed polished aluminum shallow bowl, which at 21.5 inches square and 6.5 inches high is a substantial work of art. There are many other abstract trays and bowls from which you can select those most relevant to your dcor and furnishing style.

Home Dcor Lighting

A large factor in the majority of home interior design is lighting, and in that respect you can find some fabulous home decor ideas online. Lighting options range from candles and lanterns to table and floor lamps. Each offers its own unique accent to a room, and between them you have the options of soft muted lighting all the way to full-on glare, whichever suits you best. Here are some options:

Candles: you have a number of options, but among the more modern designs of candle-holders are stacks of white painted balls, one on top of the other, forming a traditional form of candlestick, but with a modern look. Alternatively, you can have any of a number of polished aluminum candle holders ranging from small 6 inch squares to 18 inch x 5 inch coils. These can hold traditional candles or tea lights designs.

Lanterns: Modern muted lighting also comes in the forms of floor-standing lanterns, illuminated by pillar candles or an LED power plug (easily obtained online). Available sizes are 6 x 12 inches, 7 x 18 inches and 8 x 25 inches, and they are available in a range of designs. Generally made in powder-coated steel, these are genuine designer pieces.

Table Lamps: For a more traditional style of lighting in the modern home, table lamps also come in many designs and sizes. Examples include a 27 inch metal fluted wineglass design, a 25 inch metal and glass lamp with black and white fabric drum shade, and a beautiful rich red shade on a 20 inch metal and glass lamp.

Floor Lamps: Also known as standard lamps, these beautiful creations are magnificent forms of home dcor lighting that would grace any modern room. They are available in many modern designs and impossible to describe, though an amber metal and resin oblong lamp standing 37 inches high looks magnificent, while a more traditional style of lamp, but with a modern twist, stands 64 inches tall with a beautiful pale purple drum shade.

Every one of these lighting art forms is a fabulous example of modern home dcor lighting that would go along with most home interior design options. In fact, any of the above modern home dcor accessories would be suitable for use in any home that is designed around a contemporary theme, and every one of them can be found online.

Summary: Modern home interior design requires modern home dcor accessories to go along with it. There is a fabulous range of modern lighting options and many other accessories available online that are affordable without breaking the bank.
