The modern style when set in a modern architectural setting can be dramatic, eye catching and memorable. If you are staging a modern home keep a few simple rules in mind to help effectively merchandise with modernity.

• Use materials that reflect the movement plastics, molded veneers, chrome, and steel. Natural elements such as bamboo, sea grass, and coral work to convey the architectural aspects of nature.

• Keep it simple, form follows function and if it doesn't have a function don't use it. Minimalism follows the rules of function, which dictates keep it simple, and that brings us full circle, get it!

• Don't shy away from using bold pattern, color and contrast.
