What is contemporary?

Contemporary actually has several meanings but in essence means that the said item is belonging to or occurring in the present. So when we talk about contemporary furniture or design, we are actually talking about fashions that are occurring, or being created here, in the present time – whatever that might be! This can cause confusion, for obvious reasons!

What we find is that by making your furniture the focal point of the room, everything can then be created around this. Modern fashions usually take on board other time periods and are then inspired. Creating an interesting collaboration of many of these can then create your contemporary furniture of today.

Contemporary furniture from the core is based around flexibility, creativity and elegance, working into and with any type of decoration, therefore making this style extremely popular.

Unlike “modern” furniture, the styles created can often be focused around comfort, ensuring your sofa upholstery is the softest, and its cushions the deepest.
