Modern Cottage Design

Brightly lit lliving room in modern, japandi style.

Your cottage style can be simplicity itself.

The most popular search in modern interior design is Japandi, a gentle, minimalist Japanese aesthetic that's mixed with a Scandinavian's love of nature and fine wood craftsmanship. It’s serenity itself, as expressed in taste, functionality and right proportion.

There's a light sense of colour at work here, with organic textures and the idea of bringing landscapes inside. Expect to see unadorned walls, visually clean surfaces mixed with rough-hewn textiles ... all respectful of nature's imperfections.

Our CedarCoast Design Team will help you discover your personal sense of cottage style, modern, traditional or ? We'll help you incorporate that spirit into the making of your family's new home.

The overall look is relaxing, restful and natural while embracing neutral colors, high-quality, organic and perhaps unrefined or imperfect materials. There's an interplay between exposed wood grains, organic textiles and fibres... all rendered with graceful, unhindered lines.

This family went for less upkeep with comfort at the top of their list: warmed polished floors throughout and copper piping in the main bath.

A modern family cottage is a respite from busy city living. The atmosphere should be as carefree as possible!

CedarCoast takes your sense of taste and weaves that spirit through the design of your new home.

Here we see uncluttered walls of natural wood, simply framed, without garnish. There’s a playful give and take between inside and outside views.

This aesthetic matches the free and relaxing lifestyles many cottage families admire. If enjoying the simple pleasures of life were a design trend, this would be it.

If you are planning a new custom cottage, even in the very first stages of your thinking, we would love to speak with you.
