As an understanding of what ‘ultra-modern house design’ really is, becomes common knowledge, the need for them has become paramount.
After being in the envelope of our homes for almost two years in the pandemic, most of us would agree that functional homes focussing on well-being are the true modern homes of 2022.
Our homes aren’t just our sanctuaries, but also where we are still spending most of our time. And, amid the wave of sustainability and wellness-driven interior design, we have broken down key aspects that lead to the successful design of an ultra-modern house.
1. Open up yourself to expansive spaces
Real luxury in interior design is reflective in spaces that make your home feel larger than life. Allowing elements of the immediate environment to blend with the interiors is a full-proof method of introducing serenity.
“As an extension of its natural surroundings, the architecture of your home doesn’t only become resource-efficient, rather stands ready for the future as well.” – this is the belief of our principal designer and architect Anupam Singh.
2. Custom furniture is another investment
Think of clean lines, and sculptural pieces, made for just your comfort, that is exactly what custom furniture is about. These one-of-a-kind pieces designed to perfection last for years to come, making your investment viable and sustainable.
The key benefit is that the ergonomics can be altered to suit special needs, while you have the liberty to play with more modern materials like glass and sculptural stone.
Even the horizon isn’t a limit when it comes to adding signature pieces to your modern home.
3. Understand the materials that speak to you
Materials speak more to any homeowner than any other design element would. The entire concept of a modern home is based on the unison of a certain set of forms and materials, enhancing the importance even more.
Your understanding of materials of your liking can be the highlight of your modern home. While wood speaks to many as an advocate for warmth, the dark tones of wood might not be the correct palette for many others.
At Alive Studio, we make it our aim to explore the material palette with you when taking on modern home design.

4. Let’s not forget the flooring!
A specific design element widely seen in modern house design inside spaces is seamless flooring. Veins of beautiful marble flow from room to room, sometimes even into the outdoors.
Why we recommend a continuous floor for your ultra-modern home is that it would eventually make the space look bigger and airy, giving it the perfect touch of modernity.
We ourselves like to experiment with different flooring materials; like white marble, rustic tones of wooden flooring, and more, while also keeping it seamless throughout the home.

How can you style a modern home?
While the ultra-modern house design is mostly about choosing the right materials for the right space, another aspect that can bring about a major positive difference is styling!
It is our belief that no home is ready until it has the right decor elements to allow each of the design elements to blend in. As for a modern home, statement pieces with a minimal look are exactly what you need.
The first step is to understand the colour palette and then add throws, shams, and accessories accordingly. Even the plants that you add should carry a minimal look, letting the furniture pieces and materials in the space take centre stage.
The picture-perfect homes that we today identify as modern and luxurious are curations that define the language of modernity. Any modern home has to be functional and livable while carrying that little dash of luxury.
Alive Studio has been at the forefront of modern home design as we draw inspiration every day from textures, materials, colours, and of course people!
