Favorite Moments From the #ModernismProject Photo Challenge!

There were so many fantastic submissions for the #ModernismProject's #abode challenge that I decided to pair my favorite shots with tips for achieving similar looks. If you're a lover of midcentury design or want to experiment with incorporating this style into your home, these images will inspire ideas for adding a modernist touch.

A bird's-eye view shows off a sea of treetops and a cozy seating nook. Editor's Tip: Opt for a pair of swivel chairs, which can accommodate everything from an intimate conversation to watching television from across the room. Source: Instagram user jonny_west
A shelving unit becomes a display for an impressive array of colorful vessels. Editor's Tip: Building your own collection is surprisingly affordable if you're willing to thrift shop. Explore a range of tones in a single color family instead of trying to make an exact color match. Source: Instagram user deebadgurl
A multitiered table allows for enough room to create a small vignette without taking up precious space. Editor's Tip: When styling a vignette, look for subtle repetitions in shape, color, or material. Source: Instagram user katielouuu
A modern fireplace facade creates a huge canvas for hanging wall accessories. Editor's Tip: Make sure that you pay close attention to scale. Sometimes a cluster of mirrors makes more sense than just one. Source: Instagram user athomemodern
Graphic prints and furry textures are layered to create a fun but inviting atmosphere. Editor's Tip: Mixing patterns doesn't feel overwhelming if you stick to a disciplined color palette. Source: Instagram user mrmodps
Floor-to-ceiling windows bring the outdoors in. Editor's Tip: For a Palms Springs vibe, try adding a dracaena marginata plant or two. Source: Instagram user athomemodern
Simple accessories enhance instead of distract from the beauty of this amazing wall sculpture. Editor's Tip: Add visual interest to a group of like-colored objects by mixing textures and materials. Source: Instagram user irisconrad
This Arne Vodder planter chest serves as a spectacular conversation piece. Editor's Tip: Try positioning these types of pieces where they'll be noticed most, like a foyer. Source: Instagram user gonkedglookedslurped
The symmetrical perfection of this dining room demonstrates modernism at its best. Editor's Tip: Mix things up by placing two of the same chairs at either end of the table that complement without matching the other chairs. Source: Instagram user fishcoteque
Even the high chair fits the theme of this modern kitchen! Editor's Tip: It can take some extra searching, but investing in baby accessories that match your decorating style can make a huge difference. Source: Instagram user sputnikagogo
The nightstand and its accessories cleverly match the era of the oil painting. Editor's Tip: Troll flea markets for reasonably priced portraits that capture the style of an era you love. Source: Instagram user deedee9_14
This was the winning photo from the #ModernismProject #abode challenge! I love that this vignette has a nostalgic, midcentury vibe while still looking remarkably fresh. Editor's Tip: Try creating a vignette with items that share a common denominator, like color, shape, or a whimsical theme. Source: Instagram user gonkedglookedslurped
