- Wood, metal, glass, and steel are the primary materials.

- Simple furniture with exposed legs raised off the floor and glossy cabinets.
- Clean lines, simple furnishings, a lack of clutter and adornments, and “form follows function” are distinguishing features.
Traditional Decoration Style
The traditional decoration is influenced by older and more classical design styles, but that doesn’t mean it’s out of date. It is a style that adds comfort as well as familiarity to a space, making it feel warm, cozy, and inviting. A traditionally designed home contains no surprises, and everything is clean and calm.

The Contemporary Interior Design style is more like a modern way of life, inspired by all previous design styles such as minimalism, modernism, Art Deco, and even the previously mentioned historical design eras. This is not to say that the contemporary style is ruffled and hazy. Instead, it has clean lines and smooth surfaces that give the impression of a well-organized space. Modern homes typically have open floor plans and make extensive use of natural light. Materials used are environmentally friendly or recycled, with a strong emphasis on energy conservation. Colors used are typically neutral, with a splash of vibrancy provided by a brightly colored sofa or painting, for example. The majority of the furniture in a contemporary-styled home is current. Lighting fixtures from various eras are used to enhance the living space.
