Contemporary Interior Design

The style of the past and present times!

When you look at interior design styles throughout history, contemporary interior design is the one that is always evolving. In the same way, contemporary design style will also continue to change over the course of the twenty-first century. That’s because “contemporary” refers to “here and now,” in other words, anything of the present moment. This design fashion borrows from various time periods but always adapts them to the current trends and technology.

Despite the flexibility, contemporary interior design is mostly sleek and simple. Take as an example those open-concept living room and kitchen makeovers. They use different features like detailed moldings on walls and windows, and combine them with an open layout of streamlined furniture. And speaking of those, typical contemporary furniture design shows exposed legs and clean lines that lend a light and airy feel.
