Contemporary Duvet Covers
Modern and contemporary design means taking the old and reworking it with a new and now style. Using textiles, shapes, colors and a minimalist vision, forward thinking designers are creating products that bring a refreshing, crisp and sleek look to our home environments.
Furnishings and fabrics are made from organic materials and feature sleek and linear characteristics. The lines are simple and clutter free. An example of this can be found in contemporary bedding such as modern and contemporary duvet covers and their coordinating bedding pieces. Gone is the dainty flower covered dust ruffle and matchy-matchy bedding ensembles of old.
The contemporary duvet cover is a crisp clean white background with a bold graphic or a linear pattern that is the focal point of not only the bed but the bedroom as well. Modern duvet covers often feature a splash of a color outlined with a thin or thick black line or other eye catching and eye moving strategically placed pattern. Either of these styles may also be of a neutral tone that simply fades into the space and allows the artwork or other design elements to take center stage.
When it comes to contemporary duvet covers, the coordinating pieces are normally less graphic yet still bring a pop of color. Throws will usually be of one color taken from the duvet itself and the same goes for the accompanying throw pillows and shams. Choosing to bring in a few décor items in the same color as the graphics on the duvet cover will keep the eye moving without stealing the show or overpowering the room.
The object of contemporary design is a cohesive look throughout the space. Less is more. Clutter is out. Embellishments such as fringes, ruffles, tassels and other dust collectors are no longer welcome in the contemporary home. These look great even on sofa beds!
Your contemporary duvet cover can become the beginning of a whole new, clutter-free, organized and calming home environment. Start there and begin redesigning your world one fabulous piece at a time.
