Contemporary Style Furniture

Contemporary style furniture has a rounded edge to the styling. It has flat faced drawers and doors that are often made of solid Oak. The solid Oak drawers and doors usually have a slot or finger groove cut into them to use as a handle. Some contemporary pieces may have a wood framed door and use a wooden or metal knob on the drawers and doors instead of the finger groove.

Another style similar to the Contemporary is the Urban or Metro. This style is very square or linear, and uses flat faced drawers and doors for a sleek appearance. The Urban or Metro pieces usually use a black or chrome colored metal knob or handle for the drawer and door hardware.

Both of these styles can match any décor with their simple straight forward lines and design. These pieces come in different woods, such as Oak and Alder, come in different finishes, and can come in a variety of furniture types. Bedroom, Home Office, and Entertainment all have options for the Contemporary and Urban or Metro styles.
