“Modern” isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when we think floral prints. Flowers usually remind us of spring decorations, vintage decor, or weddings. Those are the three main things that come up when we’re looking for floral decor. But they can be really cool and modern as well, it’s just a matter of knowing how to use them!

“Happiness radiates like the fragrance from a flower and draws all good things towards you.” - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi

Natural Element

Among the features of modern decor, there’s the use of lots of natural light and plain windows. That’s perfect to create something like this room! Keeping a palette of colors really bright and fun and it will make a great bedroom for your teen daughter.

More than that,

If you don’t like the idea of painting a tree on the wall, you can easily find flower wall stickers that will complement the floral bedding just the same.

Home Office
