-Think of museum interiors when planning a contemporary room: each element has
its own space, and is
set off to stand alone while contributing to
the whole.
-Architectural
and functional elements of a space are fully embraced in
a contemporary interior, whether they are beautiful
or simply structural. Ceiling pipes in loft spaces,
broken brick walls in a former factory building, metal ductwork,
etc. is often left exposed, adding textural interest
and
line.
-Make bold statements with both furniture and
accessories. If you love red, put it up on an
accent wall or choose a bright red sofa or chair.
-In both furnishings and accessories, skip the
small, pastel, and cute. Avoid ruffles, florals,
carved details, traditional shapes. Instead,
go for the bold, artistic, and sculptural.
