The Art of Contemporary Dining Furniture

August 10th, 2008 by admin

Contemporary Dining furniture or Contemporary Furniture in general originated in the whole space age thinking, you can look at the Jetsons, Star Trek and others. However, over the years this design has come down to earth. To define contemporary furniture, you could say that it is characterized by bold colors and very modern Looking design. Some would say it’s a clean and open approach to modern furniture design and placement. An important point to get in here is that this furniture would come as a single color and not with patterns as in traditional furniture.

You are probably asking the question. When and where is it best to use Contemporary furniture? This type of furniture design normally compliments modern home designs and smaller dwellings such as apartments and condominiums. Essentially, it can work anywhere once you follow the basic design rules of spacing and lighting. One rule of thumb is that when a piece of modern contemporary furniture is setup by itself, you could call that contemporary but once you decide to mix it with other pieces you would get a more traditional look.

Part of the reason that Contemporary Dining furniture is becoming common is the shift towards the dining room and kitchen becoming an entertainment center of the home as oppose to the more private traditional use. This new trend lends itself to a more open design approach which is common in many newly built houses.

In terms of budget for Contemporary furniture, the general assumption is that it’s out of the reach of most people and only for those wealthy New York Apartment owners. This is not the case as you can that Ikea which is not expensive sells mostly contemporary modern furniture and they are affordable. Now, with the Internet option you have a lot more choices in terms of where and what to buy. There are hundreds of both local and online stores to choose from and most of them offer discounted prices.

Now, if you are seriously looking to re-design your dining room with Contemporary dining furniture, I would say that it’s best to research styles, schemes and colors that fit your home the best. One good way to go about this is get a book on the topic such as “Contemporary Furniture by Sebastian Conran and Mark Bond”. This book goes into materials and manufacturing methods to give more insights on the choices you need to make for your given situation. Here is the book on Amazon for you

Furniture that wiggles, twists and squirms - Kind of Contemporary Dining Furniture

August 16th, 2008 by admin

Covering the area of contemporary dining furniture, you run into these design approaches that just blow you away.. Check out the full article now.

There’s nothing grown-up about Judson Beaumont’s furniture. Dressers appear to twist and squirm. Beds seem to have burst through the bedroom wall. Cabinets shaped like grandfather clocks stand impatiently, wooden hands perched on their hips.While other contemporary furniture designers might name Philippe Starck or Marcel Breuer as inspirations, Beaumont cites the 1988 movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit. “I loved that the cartoon stuff in it made no visual sense,” he explains. “I was looking for something different and that movie just opened my mind.”
