It’s still chilly and gray outside but signs of Spring are everywhere. Now is a great time to bring a fresh eye and new life to rooms in your home. For simple yet effective fixes to make a modern space more inviting and functional, we like to look to color, lighting and organic elements.

COLOR is the design tool that best and quite easily brings a sense of comfort and calm or cheer and drama to interior spaces. It’s all about finding colors and combinations that resonate and make you feel good, not just those that are trending. Consider your favorite colors, read design magazine articles, and leaf through sets of paint swatches for help getting to an enduring color combo that works. Accessories, artwork, rugs and throws provide great ways to add color coordination, interest and texture throughout your room.

LIGHTING, along with color, is key to the mood of a space. Think about how you want to feel in a room as well as how you use it. It’s good to also think about how light lands on the surfaces. You’ll find the right vibe by working with uplights, downlights, ambient and task lighting to create a mix of light sources at different levels and locations.

Adding ORGANIC life energy, shape and texture can seem challenging due to the clean lines and simplicity of modern interiors. But including furnishings and elements crafted in natural materials like wood and stone, often makes all the difference between a flat or lively space. Plants are especially great for filling corners and difficult places, framing or echoing design elements and softening hard areas in modern spaces.

These three fixes to freshen your home will create immediate solutions. Let us know how we can help.

A happy home expresses our identity, welcomes our guests, and offers comfort and solitude from the business of the exterior world we live in.

This has been some of the best customer service I’ve ever had. Immediate responses, thorough and accurate information, friendliness, follow through, all without being pushy in the sale. The delivery people were absolutely perfect.

It has been a pleasure working with you and the rest of the team at EWF Modern.

It is all beautiful. I can’t believe how well it flows. I’m so happy with it. Also, the delivery service did a great job.

My sofa arrived today and it’s gorgeous! It’s exactly what I was looking for-a bit of a statement/drama but also inviting and warm. My dog thinks so too. While we don’t live in pdx any longer I’m a big fan of your shop and the service you provide.

Our new bed is beautiful and we both think the mattress is the most comfortable we have ever experienced. Thank you and your staff for your assistance.

I love EWF team for their extraordinary talent in quality, modern design, and excellent customer service. Renee and Erez, what a pleasure to do business with you.

We wanted to let you know how pleased we are with the furniture we have purchased from you. The quality is wonderful, the styling is just what we like, the delivery has been without problems and dealing with all of you has been extremely pleasant.

Everything arrived and looks wonderful. I’m very happy with the way things have turned out. I’m grateful for your talents in design and your vision of how things will look.

Thank you, that is good news. You are the only company that is keeping delivery dates and keeping us updated. We are singing your praises and telling our friends about your store.

Absolute perfection! We could not be happier. Thank you so much.

Just letting you know the dining table & chairs arrived yesterday and they are fantastic. It was just the 2 of us for dinner, but I had to try the expansion with our bench for extra seating. So happy!
