FOLLOW & REACH OUT

Post Modern design style emerged in the late 1960s and flourished throughout the 1970s and 1980s, primarily in the United States and Europe. It sought to break away from the constraints of modernism, embracing a diverse array of styles, historical references, & playful aesthetics. This movement marked a significant shift in philosophy, emphasizing complexity, contradiction, humor, and rejecting the idea of a singular narrative in favor of multiple perspectives.

Here's how to express your style...

In a Post Modern home, the interior details blend eclectic styles with historical and playful elements. Classic elements like columns, arches, and moldings are mixed with minimally detailed flooring & cabinetry. Diverse volumes of space, asymmetrical room layouts, juxtaposing materials, unexpected colors, and exaggerated features create the playful contradictive spirit of this design.

Interior Finishes

Post Modern interior finishes emphasize a mix of textures, colors, and materials, creating a lively and engaging atmosphere. Bright and saturated colors are key, along with graphic murals or fabric patterns. Unique finishes like high-gloss lacquer, burled wood, and zebra stone create impact. Mixing soft finishes like velvet & suede with shiny finishes like polished chrome & mirrored glass create a dynamic juxtaposition.

Now to furnish & decorate your space...

Post Modern furniture challenges traditional notions, resulting in pieces that are not only functional but also artistic & thought-provoking. Unconventional silhouettes and sculptural pieces dominant the space, such as a bubbled sofa or bust side table which bring a level of humor. Unexpected pairings are common with style, form, and materials.

Lighting serves as functional and striking art pieces, enhancing the eclectic expression. Unexpected elements such as curved rope light chandelier or miniature sculpture lamp provide a sense of quirkiness. A mix of dramatic and understated fixtures in different styles, colors, and finishes are key in providing an overall eclectic look.

Post Modern decoration encourages creativity and self-expression to tie the eclectic space together. From large scale abstract artwork, asymmetrical sculpted vases, multicolored glass candlesticks, quirky animal figurines, family or cultural heirlooms, and oddly shaped mirrors, there is no limit to the unique playfulness of the decor.
