THE MOST POPULAR FURNITURE STYLES

 

Mid-century modern, traditional, contemporary, modern, country… The list can go on and on, and often times, can be confusing. With so many style options, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed or uncertain of choosing the right style of furniture for your space. Below, we’ve highlighted the major types of furniture styles you’ll see in most homes.

TRADITIONAL FURNITURE

Much like its name, traditional furniture reproduces a classic decor. It features a European flair and elegance. Darker, rich colours of wood and ornamental details are some of the highlights of this style. If you’re looking for traditional solid wood furniture, please contact us to find out how we can provide custom solutions for a more traditional furniture approach.

MODERN FURNITURE

Defined by simplicity, clean and crisp lines, the modern furniture style usually offers a neutral and simple design. Often labeled as “cold”, modern furniture style incorporates a neutral palette as well as metal, wood, glass, steel and plastic materials. Look for our styles featuring these simple and clean lines, as well as use of metal or glass in our tables, or contact us for a custom modern solution. Our Payton dining table is a simple design that can fit into a modern setting, especially when finished in the black oak colour.

CONTEMPORARY FURNITURE

Contemporary furniture resembles the ‘here and now” personality. Often very similar to modern furniture, it can feature smooth or curved lines as well as a play on geometric shapes. Our Split round table will be a perfect addition to a contemporary setting with its play on shapes and the elegant design.

MID-CENTURY MODERN FURNITURE

Mid-century modern furniture is known for most furniture designs seen around today. Clean lines, gentle curves and organic shapes offer elegant simplicity and a timeless aesthetic. Something like our Alba dining table will offer a perfect, simple and elegant design that will fit with this style.

TRANSITIONAL FURNITURE

Transitional furniture takes modern and traditional furniture and blends the two. Transitional furniture offers a balance between classic details and modern materials and can blend elegant and noble furnishings with modern material elements.
