Contemporary Home Furniture Design
Contemporary Home Furniture DesignStraight lines with curving edges, a splash of color here and there, and of course, a little bit funky! These are all terms associated with trends in contemporary furniture. But for the first time, the trends are heading into a new curve; they’re heading into the newfound realm of “practical.”
When using the term “practical”, it’s important to think more along the lines of a “useful” practical than a “sensible” one, that is, something that has a purpose and doesn’t waste anything (including time and money). There are a few things that have fueled this change, including an uncertain economy, global warming and environmental issues, increases in fuel costs, and terrorist threats around the globe and in our backyards. The results? A subtle trend that people feel safer at home; so they stay there and invite friends over for dinner parties and barbeques, have family movie night at home instead of driving out to the theater, and are buying more environmentally-friendly products made from renewable resources.
Long gone are the days of mono-seating in the family room, unless of course the chair is one of the high-tech, surround sound home theater devices with all of the latest doo-dads like cup holders built-in. Matching ottomans provide not only a place for you to put your feet up, but handy storage compartments for remotes, DVD’s, and other paraphernalia used in this recent trend.
