a little about…

Modern Cottage

Comfortable. Humble. Inviting.

 Modern Cottage style encompasses the soft warm embrace of a cozy sofa and a warm cup of tea, but with the clean lines of a modern interior. This style is humble yet refined. Instead of rooms full of décor and accessories, the focus is on line and form. Color palettes remain simple, and contain lots of warm whites and neutrals, plus plenty of natural wood elements.

Want a Modern Cottage Look in Your Short Term Rental??

Easy Action Items:

  • Keep your color palette simple. Stick with whites, neutrals, and some black to ground your space, with just one or two accent colors used throughout.
  • Spend time selecting art.  Because the decor and colors are minimal in a contemporary space, art becomes forefront. Find something unique and playful to spice things up!
  • Keep Comfort in Mind.  Cottages are inherently cozy places. Make sure to select furniture that will feel comfortable, and add throws and comfy pillows to soften up a minimal design.
