Video Decorating for a Modern, Relaxing Room eHow

Hi, I'm Tisha Morris. Today I'm gonna show you how to decorate for a modern relaxing room. Modern design often gets a bad rap for being cold and sterile, but it doesn't have to be that way. Today I'm gonna show you some ways to make a room not only feel modern but also relaxing. Here we have a white sofa. The color white will automatically make a room look modern, clean, and simple. You might think white could get dirty really easily, but with slipcovers, you can throw them in the wash just as easy as you were cleaning your sheets. Using a variety of textures is another way to help make a room look modern and relaxing. Here we have a throw pillow made of cotton that is not only comfortable and cozy but really softens up the couch. Here we have a nice high-piled shag rug that really makes the space look and feel much more cozy, warm, inviting, and also with a modern feel.
