Contemporary decorating can be daunting at first. Where do I start? What color should I use? Am I in over my head? But if you just slow down and follow these 3 steps the task will become less terrifying and more enjoyable.

Use furniture and accessories to make a bold statement in contemporary style interior. Use a basic background and use a splash of your favorite color on a piece that will stand out.
Less is more! In a contemporary style interior, don’t use ruffles, excessive carved details, fringe, or floral prints. Abolish cute and small. Go basic, bare, bold, and structural.
Floors in a contemporary style home should be bare and smooth in wood, tile, or vinyl. If you must use carpet for sound control or warmth, choose commercial grades. Add color and texture with plain or geometric-patterned area rugs.
