Contemporary style is defined by simplicity, subtle sophistication, deliberate use of texture, and clean lines. It embraces minimalistic elements highlighting grays, beiges and shades of white. Interiors tend to showcase space rather than things. Contemporary style offers an 'everything in its place' interior featuring designs that are high on function and simplicity and low on collections and fuss. Simple and geometric forms are a basic component of contemporary interior design. ¹+1 ^{2 3}
