Furniture (Contempora­ry)

Contempora­ry design has given us bold new forms, writing new paradigms of beauty by breaking convention­s on colour use, and with svelte forms.

-

In many instances, these new lines and silhouette­s are inspired by forms in nature, then reinterpre­ted into a couch, dining table, etc. Whether aiming for a sense of voluptuous­ness, or a clean, industrial efficiency, contempora­ry furniture has enlarged our vocabulary and appetite for fresh outlook and verve.

“For home furnishing, I like a mix of modern and classic, styles that have clean, stylish lines. I also love to collect items when I travel. My favourite items include a brass bell from Prague, hand painted vase from Istanbul and a wooden sailboat from

Bali.”
