Large Windows: A unique element of the modern home is a large window in the sitting area. Unlike the vintage style, modern homes are well-lit with natural light.

Cords otherwise visible are also a hazard if there are kids in the house. Installing the implements in a manner that cords can be hidden behind walls makes sense.
