Why Custom?
options Options OPTIONS!
Mass-produced products will always mean limitations; although the catalog companies have done an excellent job of getting their product to a huge demographic of purchasers, it is at the cost of options. They offer a good quality product with limited selection of fabrics, colors, and frame sizes, and if your home doesn't fit their scale you're out of luck. Having the same jeans as half a million people and being asked if you bought them at a high-end boutique is one thing, and can even be an icebreaker to a conversation; but being asked if your living room was Fall Catalog 2006 pages 36 & 37 is not the most flattering compliment on your home decor choice.
On the other hand, the word "Custom" usually implies "out of my price range", however that doesn't have to be the case. Newly Modern is a design and furniture studio that is dedicated to helping you achieve a personalized, custom home while staying within the price range of the catalog stores. The furniture is made locally, and that is better for maintaining a high quality product, means better delivery times, and is of course better for our local economy. At Newly Modern you can have your style made to fit you and your home.

Newly Modern to begin participating in First Friday Art Walk
Please join us for the first of our First Friday Art Walk evenings November 5th from 6-9. This months featured artist is Brooke Lindgren.
Brooke Lindgren is a native Oregonian raised in Klamath Fall, she attended Sonoma State where she received her BFA in fine arts. She has been photographing and painting since childhood. Introduced to the arts by her grandmother, a life long artist, Brooke would paint along side her learning to view the world with an artist eye.
Brooke’s mottos “Rules & models destroy genius and art.” and “Unlimited opportunities, no right or wrong, just creating.” allow her to see beauty in all things, the mundane, the ordinary and even the ugly. Wether with her brush or her camera she captures the subject to allow others to see the beauty in it.
This talent, coupled with her dedication to excellence and customer service, is what has made her so successful as the owner of Framed Art Studios (www.framedartstudios.com). In business since 2000, Framed Art Studios was named a finalist for Small business of the Year in 2007. Brooke has also been one of Decor Magazines Top 100 Art and Framing Retailers five years in a row.
“Creativity is a kind of awareness that leads to a new way of seeing the world.”

20th Floor Condo Goes Gator
When Scott purchased his 20th floor condominium he was ready to make the space his own. White walls, beautiful mahogany wood floors, and river views that go on for miles created a blank slate to get his Gator on. The blue and orange team colors of the Florida Gators became our inspiration for this transformation. But Scott was a little hesitant of color at first.
Color! Color! Color! Don't be afraid to express yourself through color! Here is what happened.
First we painted the open living room, dining room, and kitchen a beautiful gator orange. Then, placed a 12x12 deep sea blue custom area rug over the rich mahogany wood floor. Creamy leather sofa's with orange and blue custom pillows, the perfect lighting to show case artwork and grandpas handmade marble sculptures, brushed nickel hardware and accessories were all embraced by the orange paint and blue rug that created the foundation. Two colors created a beautiful space.
"I can't believe how color transformed my space to reflect my personality. I love it! Renee' did an amazing job walking me through my fear of using color."
Color really is your friend, embrace it!
