Interior Designer Sheila Bridges goes mod

• Modern style means clean lines and simple, geometric shapes.
  
• Modern, mid-century furniture is the way to go.
  
• Choose sleek materials such as stainless steel, glass and plastic.
  
• Keep wood pieces detail-free.
  
• Color schemes are simple and textures have a starring role.
  
• The number one style trait of Modernists is that they hate clutter.
  
• Modernism owes its sleek, mass-produced look to advances in manufacturing tehniques.
  
• Another color choice is red, which increases the heart rate, appetite, passion and energy.
