There is no interior style more in fashion or welcoming than contemporary design. It is just the opposite of classic design — it is bold, trendy, and emphasizes the latest design. In contemporary homes, shapes and textures take the spotlight.

If you want to design your home in contemporary style, here are five ideas to help you get started. Have a look!

1. Simple and Clean Lines

When you want a stylish and contemporary design in your home, think about impressive and attractive lines in your room. The solid lines in black on the highlighted area of the wall and ceiling function as a perfect design element. You can also make them look more beautiful with the addition of LED lights and pendant lights in the ceiling.

2. Draw Visual Height To Your Living Room

A contemporary home is all about open and decorative spaces. While this is sometimes difficult to achieve, there are ways to do it perfectly. For instance, a wall full of decorative, TV unit, and designer cabinets invariably lengthens the height of the space.

You can use different patterns for the TV unit and the rest of the wall in your living room to make it look impressive and beautiful. Having potted plants near the featured wall is an excellent option for trendy interior.

3. A Glossy Sheen In Contemporary Style Kitchen

Sure, matte is cool, but shiny surfaces are also in trend.  Glossy floor, walls, and kitchen shelves reflect light that makes space look brighter. The other advantage of having glossy surfaces is they are easy to maintain and clean, which is particularly important for the most used space of the home that is the kitchen.

You can use a shiny marble look for the wall of your kitchen with some straight-line pattern. Choose white shine tiles for the floor. Everything in white and neutral shades will make your space look bigger.

4. Use A Soothing Palette Of Neutrals

If there is a favourite shade of contemporary, then these are neutrals. What do neutrals even mean? For home design, think basic colours like white, beige, and brown, as well as their in-betweens like taupe, cream, and grey.

5. Think “Wall-To-Wall” And “Floor-To-Ceiling” Built-Ins

When planning built-in for your kitchen, consider the wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling design. It will make use of most of your vertical space, thus freeing up floor area. You can use two shades or trendy kitchen cabinets. To design your kitchen in style, take the idea from the above image.
