The city is officially “in” again, and nothing says sophistication like modern, urban interior design. If you’re a city lover, you’ve probably always appreciated clean lines, architectural details and industrial finishes. These days, the rest of the world is finally joining you. If you’re purchasing a new city home or trying to redecorate your existing one, we’ve got some city style eye candy for you. Check out these seven gorgeous city homes straight from your Instagram feed.
Aiming High
This modern yet cozy space features cathedral ceilings crossed with rustic grey beams. Desert plants and funky prints accent the room, which is outfitted with neutral-toned contemporary furniture. And of course, the space has an open-concept design that is completely on-trend for 2018.
Exposed Brick
IT HAD TO BE DONE. A post shared by LIZ (@really_really_lizzy) on
This effortless-looking space is decidedly urban, but it stays comfortable and relaxed thanks to an array of greens, bright natural lights and a warm-toned color scheme. The exposed brick on the back wall has been painted white, but allowed to age naturally, giving the room a worn-in look.
A Stark Contrast
In a major juxtaposition with our first two rooms, this space is neither warm nor relaxed-looking; instead, it is unabashedly contemporary, featuring stark grey hues and concrete walls. It is kept stylish thanks to its complete neutrality, which helps the art pieces on the wall stand out, much like the design of a contemporary art gallery.

If you have a statement art piece, this room design is a great way to show it off. Boasting mid-century modern appeal, this room features a statement wall with a signature art piece, lit by modern recessed lighting. Design details like vintage candelabras and a wood-paneled wall complete the look.
Wallpaper Envy
Wallpaper is a feature that used to look extremely dated, but now gives off a modern vibe. Well-chosen wallpaper in a contemporary pattern acts as a statement piece, pairing well with industrial finishes and an artsy gold light fixture.
Artist’s Loft, Reimagined
A post shared by David Biedert Photography (@davidbiedert) on
With a windowed garage door, exposed beams and an unfinished ceiling, this stunning room is about as industrial as it gets — but it hardly looks cold or unwelcoming. Worn-in brown leather furniture and a giant pink cherry blossom branch make the space look effortlessly stylish, slightly feminine and incredibly comfortable.
