Interior Design Styles Modern vs Contemporary - kajalthak - 01-23-2021

Interior Design Styles

MODERN

Modern refers to a home with clean, crisp lines, a simple color palette and the use of materials that can include metal, glass and steel. The style is sleek, and there is not a lot of clutter or accessories involved in it.

CONTEMPORARY

Contemporary is different from modern as it describes design based on the here and now.  Contemporary is more fluid and can represent a sense of currency with less adherence to one particular style. For an example, contemporary style may include curving lines, whereas modern design does not.
