Bridging several design styles popularized in the late twentieth century, contemporary design focuses on lines, shapes, and forms. Edges are soft and rounded, surfaces are simple, sleek, and unadorned. Contemporary design changes with time, but always has a current feel that emphasizes lines - vertical, horizontal, curved or straight. Less is more, spotlighting color, geometric shapes, and architectural features. The Venetian bronze finish is hand-rubbed to reveal unique bronze highlights and provides a rich and warm complement to the product's style.
