CONTEMPORARY
Contemporary
kitchens tend to be described as modern, minimalist and
geometric. The characteristics include horizontal lines,
asymmetry and a lack of molding and other ornamentation.
Materials often are man-made rather than natural: stainless
steel, laminate, frosted glass inserts, concrete, linoleum,
chrome and lacquer.
Contemporary encompasses styles from the
1940s to the present, with Europe—especially Italy, Germany
and Scandinavia—leading the way. |
