Versuz: Contemporary Interior Design - Modern Interior Design

 

Can you understand the difference between an interior decorator and an interior designer?

From that difference, we can bridge the versuz of contemporary interior design to modern interior design. 

“Anyone can be an interior decorator, but not anyone can an interior designer”

The words 'modern' and 'contemporary' are always thought to be synonymous, and it’s not a talk only about interior design.

Let’s take the Modern Interior Design first,

The period of ‘modern’ was between the beginning and the half of the 20th century, and Florence Knoll, Le Corbusier, Ray Eames, and Charles was its main protagonists. One of the main features of modern design was and still is its focus on block colors. If you come across a room with many industrial materials colored in basic hues that are only minimally decorated but not quite minimalist, it is most likely designed to fit modern styles. Defining modern interior design can be a challenge simply because it lasted for more than a century as many's favorite styles. Everybody wanted a modern home, starting with boujee royals and wives of Blue-Collars. Modern interior design essentially deals with clean lines and easiness. It comprises a large number of modern art, abstract lines, concrete, and steel, with strong primary color pops. The movement itself was built upon the rejection of the artificial, so the modern approach parallels its beauty approach with its functionality approach at the same time.

Contemporary Interior Design to the second,

Unlike modern, contemporary interior design is not linked to a certain period of time. It is constantly evolving and adapting to a variety of popular designs. Taking from Art Deco, minimalism, industrial rustic, eclectic, coastal. Chic farmhouse and a lot else, but it remains a thing of its very nature. Although contemporary styles are entirely ambiguous, some differences can help define them. Construction and materials are among the main characteristics of contemporary design whereas bare structures and sculptural lighting are always a good indication of a contemporary room. Contemporary art on the walls, a large open plan, earthy and natural shades are also some of the main features of contemporary design. As the style itself evolves, it can be difficult to identify all its key characteristics.

For a layman to understand, let’s take the versuz in a nutshell -

      A modern space tends to be strictly designed while contemporary spaces have variations in the interiors the truth of modern design is rarely considered as strong or cold, while contemporary interior designs celebrate daring, following minimalist trends.

      Modern decor tends to have a function, while contemporary concentrates more on the shape.

      Modern design favors robust lines, while contemporary design likes curves.

      In addition, geometrical aspects are appreciated in both modern and contemporary styles, but in different ways.
