Professional Contemporary Interior Design

When you walk into your home after a long day, the first thing you want to do is unwind. Contemporary design can elevate that feeling and turn your home into a relaxing oasis. This style breaks the traditional rules of design to create a casual, eclectic space that emphasizes the importance of comfort. The professionals at Ivish Interiors have years of experience with contemporary design, as well as an arsenal of materials to help you inject this relaxed style into your home decor.

The contemporary style is popular in modern homes, as it blends a range of styles from the 20th century together that make for a clean, simple look. Contemporary design is all about uncovering the basics of line, shape, and form in each element of interior decor, and prominently features elements from nature throughout colour schemes, furniture, and room accessories. 

Characteristics of Contemporary Design Include:

• Furniture: Contemporary furnishings feature soft, rounded lines and are commonly made of natural elements like birch or maple wood. While these pieces don’t feature a ton of adornment or detail, they are commonly accented with chrome, nickel, or stainless steel arms or legs. 
• Fabric: Natural fabrics like silks, cottons, and linens are often used throughout contemporary design. These fabrics can feature bold patterns but are typically used for their neutral tones and natural textures.
• Lighting: Recessed lighting is common in contemporary design, as it provides the convenience of light without having to incorporate bulky overhead fixtures. Sleek, standing designs work well in this style, especially if they feature metallic elements. 
• Colours:  The colour choices in contemporary design are typically bold neutrals in rich shades of taupe, brown, grey, and cream. These colours are typically accented with natural textures from fabrics but are also easily accented with pops of colour in wall art or a decorative area rug.
