The contemporary style is more difficult to describe than others simply because it’s a style that contains everything that’s unusual, unconventional and new. Of course, there are a few elements that let you distinguish it such as the minimalism, the clean lines, geometric shapes and the use of vibrant colors. But there are so many other things that you can’t put your finger on until you actually see them.
White bathrooms.
White is a color often used in bathrooms because it gives the room a very clean look. It’s also a color perfect for small bathrooms because it makes them seem brighter and bigger. Most often, white contemporary bathrooms also have a contrasting feature.
Bold accent colors.
It’s common for modern and contemporary spaces in general to have a strong and vibrant accent color palette. In the case of the bathroom, color usually comes in the form of accessory and sometimes fixtures and furniture can also be infused with color.
Wood used to be one of the few materials that weren’t used in the bathroom because of the moisture in the room. But lately this isn’t a problem anymore. Now wood can easily be integrated in this room and it’s a very elegant choice.
Sometimes the bathroom becomes a part of an open space, usually in combination with the bedroom. It’s a layout typical to some of the more modern or contemporary spaces. Privacy tends to become an issue and it’s why this style is not more popular.
Grey is a color very popular in contemporary interior décor. It’s often perceived as a neutral and it tends to have a cold feel. It’s also a shade often seen in industrial spaces, specifically in the case of the ones with concrete floors or walls.
