Modern style was birthed around the turn of the 20th century. Since then, there have been many iterations that take the clean, calming, and neutral look of modern design and add a unique twist or fuse it with other popular styles. Here are a few offshoots of modern design you might find during your search for a modern bedroom furniture set.
Modern Minimalism
Modern minimalism is all about simplicity, clean lines, and a clutter-free environment. This style focuses on functional furniture with sleek, understated designs, often in neutral colors like white, gray, or black. Furniture in this style includes low-profile beds, streamlined dressers, and nightstands with hidden storage to maintain an uncluttered look. Ideal for those who appreciate a serene and organized space, Modern minimalism emphasizes "less is more."
Mid-Century Modern
Mid-century modern is characterized by its sleek, functional designs and emphasis on organic forms. This style often includes furniture with tapered legs, geometric shapes, and a mix of natural wood with bold, vibrant colors. Key pieces might include a platform bed with a wooden frame, minimalist dressers, and vintage-inspired lighting. Mid-century modern is ideal for those who love retro aesthetics combined with modern functionality.
Modern Glam
Modern glam combines contemporary style with luxurious, eye-catching details. This style features bold, statement pieces such as tufted headboards, mirrored dressers, and metallic accents. Rich fabrics like velvet or satin in jewel tones or soft pastels are commonly used to add a touch of opulence. Modern glam is perfect for those who want their bedroom to exude elegance and sophistication, with a hint of Hollywood flair.
Modern Rustic
Modern rustic merges natural elements with contemporary design, emphasizing the beauty of raw materials like wood, stone, and metal. This style often features furniture with a rugged, handcrafted look, such as reclaimed wood beds, wrought iron nightstands, and leather accents. The overall vibe is warm and earthy, with a focus on texture and organic shapes. Modern rustic is perfect for those who appreciate a connection to nature while enjoying modern comforts.
Modern Farmhouse
Modern farmhouse style is comfy, cozy, and full of charm. Furniture in this style often includes wooden bed frames with distressed finishes, barn door-inspired wardrobes, and shiplap accent walls. The color palette tends to be neutral, with warm wood tones and soft textiles like cotton or linen. Modern farmhouse is ideal for those who love a homey, lived-in feel with a modern twist.
Modern Contemporary
Modern contemporary is a blend of current design trends, focusing on clean lines, neutral colors, and a mix of materials like metal, glass, and wood. Furniture in this style often features innovative designs, such as floating beds, asymmetrical dressers, and multi-functional pieces that maximize space. For example, modern black bedroom furniture sets with polished finishes and simple silhouettes are ideal for modern contemporary spaces. The overall look is sleek and sophisticated, with an emphasis on simplicity and comfort.

Types of Modern Bedroom Furniture Sets
In addition to shopping for a modern bedroom furniture set based on style, you can shop by size and configuration.
By Size
Modern bedroom furniture sets come in all sizes—twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, and California king. So, one way to narrow your search is to determine the size first. Modern queen bedroom furniture sets tend to be the most popular for primary and guest bedrooms, while twin and full beds are more common for kids’ bedrooms.
It’s important to measure your bedroom and leave at least 30” of clearance to easily walk around your bed. Sketch out the layout of your bedroom and consider how many furniture pieces you’d like to include as well as what size bed will fit. For example, if you have plenty of closet storage and don’t need dressers, you may be able to fit a king bed, whereas if you know you want two dressers, a queen bedroom set might be a better fit.
By Number of Pieces
Another way to narrow your search is to decide the number of pieces you want. Here’s a quick overview of what typically comes in 2 to 6-piece bedroom sets:
- 2-Piece Modern Bedroom Furniture Set: A bed and one nightstand
- 3-Piece Modern Bedroom Furniture Set: A bed, one nightstand, and a dresser or chest
- 4-Piece Modern Bedroom Furniture Set: A bed, two nightstands, and a dresser or chest
- 5-Piece Modern Bedroom Furniture Set: A bed, two nightstands, a dresser or chest, and a mirror
- 6-Piece Modern Bedroom Furniture Set: A bed, two nightstands, a dresser, a mirror, and a chest or bench
