Modern Floor Vases

Sleek, neutral, simple and clean are all words that can define the modern style of decorating. Taking elements of geometric patterns and animated colors from many 1960s mod fashions and designs, modern décor helps establish a living space as functional, vibrant and unique, while keeping it clean and uncluttered. Distinct lines are important in modern style home décor, whether the lines are straight, curved or circular; the visual impact between subdued backgrounds and large, bold shapes with bright colors is spectacular. Modern floor vases also integrate these design elements within their shape, color and visual embellishments, helping to enhance the modern look with practical style.

Modern floor vases bring together function and form, keeping true to the modern feeling that "less is more." It is common to see a brightly colored, rectangular modern floor vase paired next to a similarly shaped, yet, smaller vase of contrasting color. Each vase serves a purpose in terms of design and function, yet each holds true to the clean lines inherent in the modern design style. Modern floor vases can also be seen in conical or other geometric shapes like cylinders or circles, as well as shapes that are slightly distorted, such as a floor vase that tilts sideways.

Some modern floor vases take their design flourishes from common geometric shapes, while others may be influenced by Asian or other minimalist design styles. What makes modern design style so unique and interesting is its ability to take the ordinary and turn it into an artistic expression through the use of simple color changes, lines or offbeat, yet simple embellishments. The modern design style is known for its low profile when compared to other decorating styles. Furniture is typically lower to the ground making the style more appealing to those in small spaces like apartments and lofts, and the style works particularly well with open floor plans. The accessories and accents used in modern styles can replicate this open and airy feel, and it is common to see floor vases or other items displayed at lower levels.

Modern designs reflect complexities of shapes and lines, even as they project an uncluttered, streamlined look and feel that is both inviting and bursting with visual interest. It is a style favored by those who live in smaller spaces, as well as those who appreciate clean lines, uncluttered spaces and understated visual impact. Modern floor vases encompass these same details in their shapes and embellishments, enhancing décor and bringing a sense of nostalgia and interest into a modern styled space.
