BATHROOM: CLASSIC I
What Is Contemporary Style?
In a nutshell, contemporary style is current and new — it’s what today’s designers are creating. Of course, newness isn’t the only defining feature of this popular look. If you think of a spectrum of ornament, with the most embellished being traditional style, contemporary would sit firmly at the opposite end. This style embraces negative space, strong shapes and clean lines, while leaving room for interpretation and experimentation. Contemporary spaces are often minimal and white — but not always: They can also be vibrant, playful and full of color and pattern.
