Having your own home is great enough for you to feel relaxed and be content. It is enough for you to go home to ease your mind and also get rid of stress. But it would be better if you would have some design in your home. It is pleasing to look at and because of that, it will feel cozier and comfortable. If you think that home design is complicated, it is not really. 

One of the most popular is the contemporary design, and it just means keeping it simple yet good to look at. It is more about using designs that are classic and minimal. It tends to not use a lot of patterns but instead stick to geometrical shapes. To make it more interesting, it does not stick to one material but instead uses a great mix of it like metal, glass, or stone. It is because of that there is added texture around the room.

If you are planning to have your home contemporary, here are some of the ways you could do it:

1. The Color

A contemporary design’s color is more on the neutrals like brown and beige with some white, black, and gray. That does not mean you cannot add other colors. In fact, you can add interest and make your room pop more by adding some hints of bold colors. You can do this by the decors like artworks or sculptures. You can also do this with your furniture’s accessories such as linens and throw pillows. This way, the room will look clean but at the same time, not too dull with the lack of color and interest.

2. The Furniture

The furniture should be simple yet bold. This means having those that are clean and in simple geometric shapes. It is one of the elements in the room that is neutral in color, but you can accent it with the materials and texture which are usually the natural ones such as cotton, silk, linen, etc. The accessories can add color and interest too. You can have them in bolder colors to contrast the overall neutral outlook of the room. But as said before, it is all about keeping it simple which means no busy designs such as florals and also no carvings. 

3. The Decor

So if the contemporary design is all about being simple, how could you decorate it? The fact of this matter is that you can get more creative when it comes to decorating. One of the ways is adding a pop of color through the accessories used such as the pillows, curtains, rugs, and other smaller elements. You can also add more texture to the fabrics. You can also add in some large plants to bring more life. Other decors that are well-known for contemporary style are contemporary artworks and sculptures, and you can easily add them to open spaces though keep in mind to avoid having too much or else it will look like it is cluttered and busy.
