Give your home a refreshing makeover with contemporary-style furniture and decor. Combining the clean, simple appeal of minimalist themes with a fashion-forward edge, this style takes a less-is-more approach to interior design. The main goal of a contemporary theme is to create a chic, intentional look that’s free of clutter yet still has character and visual interest.
Contemporary style favors soft neutral hues and bold uses of eye-catching color. For example, a living room sectional set with woven gray or taupe upholstery offers an understated tone, while a mahogany coffee table featuring silver-finished accents and a glass top draws the eye. Another way to add contrast is to offset your bright white sofa with a dark gray or ebony rug and table.
Geometric shapes abound in contemporary furniture, so choose pieces boasting a variation of straight lines and subtle curves whenever possible. A round dining room table with chairs featuring clean lines captures this distinct look, as do rectangular tables and open-back side chairs with square cut-outs. In addition to enhancing your overall theme, geometric shapes also add visual variety.
Along with color and shape, texture is a key element of contemporary style. Arm chairs with plush upholstery and button tufting are a treat when kicking back and relaxing. For the primary bedroom, consider a wood panel bed with a wire-brushed finish. Pieces with mixed materials are another great choice, such as stools with soft braided fabric and smooth metal legs.
At Rooms To Go, we also offer a wide assortment of decorative accents to bolster your contemporary theme. Choose chic, practical additions like table lamps and wall clocks in stunning geometric shapes, or accent your layout with decorative flourishes such as monochromatic wall art and table decor.
