Modern Still
Is modern furniture truly better?
The very word "modern" seems to have positive connotations. Modernising always seems to be a benefit, after all we live in modern times and anything less surely seems outdated. However this view can certainly be restrictive when selecting furniture for your home, particularly if your budget cannot stretch to a complete overhaul of everything you would like to replace.
Let us consider the following Twist Coffee Table:
Twist Coffee Table in High Gloss Black
The above coffee table is a contemporary piece often easy to fall in love with. With rotating arms which open and close the coffee table, it adds futuristic movement with this novel yet practical feature. However let us consider that your existing furniture is traditional oak, laminate mahogany or beech including floors, fireplaces, doors and maybe even fitted furniture. Now surely nothing looks worse than an out of place feature. If anything, it will draw further attention to the outdated style.
It is very easy to make an incorrect decision, therefore would a traditional coffee table be more appropriate? Not neccesarily. You could certainly opt for the oak variation in the coffee table above to help create a link between the traditional oak and modern glass. Alternatively for the less brave, a modern coffee table in a traditional material can often bridge the gap.
Let us look at the following coffee table:
You will observe that the table is constructed from oak, seamlessly blending into a modern or traditional environment. The sleek, straight lines with elegant and contemporary metal handles help to maintain the modern style.
Therefore In conclusion, are the two styles mutually exclusive, or can they comfortably interact with each other to create a successful theme? The answer is possibly, if you can create the cross-over by complimenting the traditional aspects whilst introducing modern touches.
