The quest for the perfect modern piece of furniture can often be long and expensive. This makes some feel that modern design is out of their reach. Yes, there is Design Within Reach, but for the person with a lot of style who is just starting out, even DWR can be out of reach.
Fear not design aficionados, there is a way you can get the look without having to eat Ramen for a month or scrounge through hundreds of resale shops. Target now offers a wide variety of great pieces that are surprisingly inexpensive and well made putting great design at everyone's fingertips.
A simple search of the Target site revealed pieces under $300 that were clean and simple from the Weston bedroom collection that would lend a clean, elegant style to any modern home. My personal favorite collection is Thomas O'Brien's vintage modern collection. With the simple clean vintage feel, designed for today's lifestyle, it is a true combination of form and function.
Designers are jumping at the chance to challenge themselves by creating great furnishings on a budget. Even Todd Oldham has brought his unique sense of Modern Retro to Target. There is a look and a price for every home. Think about it, how long do you think you can pull off "I am a minimalist," as the excuse as to why your mattress is on the floor and you only have one chair?
