Asian influence adds a different flavour to these three chic mid century modern home interiors, communicating a worldly sophistication. Along with Asian styling, there comes an inviting balance between minimalism and cosy comfort that shapes practical, restful living spaces. Shades of cream, beige and warm whites instil a sense of serenity that unwinds the mind and quietens the senses, whilst punchy black elements anchor a modern vibe. There is also a green accent theme that punctuates each of these welcoming residences, appearing in the form of a statement cabinet in home number one, a plush emerald green sofa in tour number two, and the simple freshness of plant life in home three.
In our first mid century modern living room, an airy cream and beige decor scheme is weighted down by heavy black accents, which complement the Asian influences in the home.
