About DIY Modern

Modern Design is Now Accessible

This site was started to make modern design more accessible. Modern design is great but is almost always way too expensive. Making things ourselves is one way to keep the cost down. This site strives to keep things simple enough for us to build with common tools and materials.

You can Build Modern Furniture and Accessories

With the tips, instructions, and inspirational ideas on this site, you can build your own modern projects. This site offers ideas, plans, and other resources to help make modern design accessible without breaking the bank.

Modern design does not have to be expensive. Most of the projects here are built with common tools using materials from local home improvement stores.

Some projects are easy. Some are more difficult. But if you are willing to put in the work, you can make them too.
