Space & Budget Guidance
Small Space Tips
In small spaces, luxe modern's quality-over-quantity approach works well. Invest in a few perfect pieces, use mirrors strategically, and focus on premium finishes for visible surfaces. Every item should be worthy of its space. For a small reading nook: Even a 3x3 foot corner can become a reading nook with a comfortable chair, good light, and a small table. Embrace coziness. Use wall-mounted shelving to save floor space.
Large Space Tips
Large luxe modern spaces can embrace grand gestures: oversized artwork, substantial furniture groupings, dramatic lighting. Maintain warmth through layered textures and thoughtful furniture arrangement that creates intimate zones. In a larger reading nook: A larger nook can become a mini library with built-in shelving, a daybed or full chaise, and room for two readers if desired.
Budget-Friendly
Focus on creating a luxe feel through editing and sophistication. Choose a premium color palette, keep things uncluttered, invest in good lighting and one quality piece, and add elegant accessories. Perceived luxury is as much about restraint as materials.
Luxury Approach
Work with a designer to source from luxury brands: B&B Italia, Minotti, Holly Hunt. Commission custom millwork, invest in original art, specify premium stone and finishes throughout, and detail everything from hardware to outlet covers.
