The Contemporary Home

Most of the time when we think of contemporary, modern design, we think of futuristic art exhibits, clean lines, and abstract art. Though these elements are beautiful, minimal, and aesthetically pleasing, how can we we design a modern home including these elements? How can we make a contemporary home a relaxing oasis that is visually appealing and modern in aesthetic? A modern home can be contemporary and functional with the proper balance and right perspective.

Modern design can make our world more beautiful; through the use of modernism we can create beautiful, inspiring spaces which help people better enjoy their daily lives. The purpose of contemporary design is not to make life bland and boring; it is to excite and delight.

Massimo Vignelli said the following about modern design:

The life of a designer is a life of fight. Fight against the ugliness. Just like a doctor fights against disease. For us, the visual disease is what we have around, and what we try to do is cure it somehow with design.

Vignelli’s insight on our modern world is very accurate; we have a multitude of popular designs which do not inspire or delight. These cookie cutter designs frustrate clients and add ugliness to our society. As designers and artists, we an help to remove this ugliness and bad design with contemporary design that refreshed our clients.

The question is this: How do we balance contemporary design with functionality? How can our modern homes be visually pleasing yet functional? Without the proper balance our homes will be uncomfortable and frustrating. We must find a delicate balance between form and function, aesthetics and practicality, so our design inspires.

We can work towards a modern, functional home by design with careful balance. Many modern designers who went before us found a perfect balance between function and form. From artists such as Piet Mondrian, Pablo Picasso, Frank Lloyd Wright, Paul Rand to Massimo Vignelli, many artists hand found this delicate balance. Graphic designers, interior designers, painters, photographers, architects as well as other modern artists can create contemporary design which meets the needs of clients and exudes beautiful aesthetics.

There is no substitute for hard work in art and design; the best way to create a balance between form and function is through persistence. Many times our design does not come together quickly; we must be creative, persist, and never give up. Creative solutions do not always fall out of the sky; inspiration rarely comes as a muse. We muse fight for good ideas and great design; at the end of the day, great interior design comes from artists who refuse to settle. They fight to be innovative, creative, and inspirational in every design. They refuse to create art which is mundane and boring; they take the time to create stunning interior design spaces.

These types of designers take the road less traveled. Instead of allowing time constraints and limitations hold them back, they create artwork and interior designs which are inspirational. They do not allow their designs to fall into the category of mundane and boring. This type of design comes from a certain mindset; this mindset refuses to create worthless art and designs. Though it is sometimes painful and time consuming, a great interior designer refuses to settle for second best. They fight for the best design possible with endurance, creativity, and hard work.
