seeming
Giving a particular impression; seeming or appearing in a certain way. It is often combined with an adverb to describe the type of impression (e.g., seltsam anmutend (strange-seeming), modern anmutend (modern-looking)).
Das alte Schloss wirkte bei Nebel fast schon gespenstisch anmutend.
In the fog, the old castle seemed almost ghostly.
'Anmutend' is the present participle of the verb 'anmuten'. The verb means 'to give a particular impression' or 'to seem like.'
Seine Reaktion mutete mich seltsam an.
His reaction struck me as strange.
The word is almost always combined with an adverb that describes the type of impression (e.g., 'modern anmutend' (modern-looking)). This combination functions like a single adjective in the sentence.
Sie trug ein elegant anmutendes Kleid.
She wore an elegant-looking dress.
Common adverbs combined with 'anmutend' are 'seltsam' (strange), 'modern' (modern), 'altmodisch' (old-fashioned), 'exotisch' (exotic), 'fremdartig' (foreign/alien), or 'gespenstisch' (ghostly).
Die Ruine hatte eine fast schon romantisch anmutende Atmosphäre.
The ruin had an almost romantic-seeming atmosphere.
'Anmutend' belongs more to written language or an elevated, descriptive style. It is used less often in everyday colloquial speech.
Die Landschaft war von einer fast unwirklich anmutenden Schönheit.
The landscape had an almost unreal-seeming beauty.

'anscheinend' and 'anmutend' both have to do with an impression, but they function very differently. 'anscheinend' is an adverb and says: something is probably the case because it looks that way or because you have certain information. 'anmutend' is an adjective or participle and describes what impression something gives, for example 'modern anmutend' (modern-looking) or 'seltsam anmutend' (strange-seeming). The risk of confusion comes from the fact that both have to do with 'appearing' or 'seeming'. If you want to express an assumption, use 'anscheinend'. If you are describing the effect or style of something, 'anmutend' fits.
Das modern anmutende Büro gefällt den Gästen sofort.
The modern-looking office immediately appeals to the guests.
Emma kommt anscheinend am Montag nicht zur Schule.
