Eclectic Design Styles
Eclectic Design Styles combine elements or particular styles from different time periods and different origins within a single project or space, for example combining modern furniture and accessories with vintage pieces. Eclecticism does not mean creating a chaotic and “anything goes” environment. On the contrary, eclectic design is extremely well thought out and uses repetition of colour or pattern, a variety of different textures to add depth, as well as specific placement of articles to create a harmonious and balanced outcome.

Modern Design Styles have clean lines, accessory-free space, and neutrals with primary colors. The essence of modern interior design includes basic shapes, functional lines and curves, materials like metal, chrome, and glass – and furnishings without decorative parts. It favours symmetry over asymmetry. Modern furniture is streamlined with polished, smooth and sleek surfaces. Pieces are simple, uncluttered, built for economy of form, and to serve a purpose.

Frankly, modern design style alone can be a little clinical and boring. That is why, although we may use this style as the basis for a room, we tend to use eclecticism to mix things up a bit and create richer, more fun and textured spaces.
