The Latest Buzz in Bathroom Decor - Contemporary Modern Styles

It is not an unsophisticated style but is a very uncluttered and clean look which often gives a sense of space and light in the areas in which it is implemented. It is a great choice for the bathroom areas in your home and is also easy to keep clean and tidy. Providing extra space by using glass shelving and wall mounted vanity cabinets also creates a unique contemporary feel.

Chrome Shelving Unit

For a classy modern feel add one of the new beautiful contemporary vessel sinks and wall mounted mirrors along with one of the superb chrome faucets and you will achieve a totally unique and impressive bathroom for all to enjoy.

Vessel sinks have the appearance of a beautiful bowl floating on the counter top instead of set into the vanity cabinet. They come in a wonderful variety of shaped bowls. There are round, square, rectangular, high, low or custom shapes and many other options.

The color choice is endless but is dependent on your bathroom decor and your own color choices. White is an everlasting favourite choice because it can be matched to any color accessories and looks good with chrome, ceramic or glass fittings. The brilliant ruby red textured glass vessel sink is also a great favourite.

A clear and clean look can be achieved with a simple clear but structured glass vessel sink and these are very popular.Modern vessel sinks are available in a large range of materials and some of those available are stone, marble, china, glass, ceramic, crystal, pottery, enamel, copper and any other durable materials. The handcrafted ceramic and pottery sinks are especially eye-catching and can be made in very vibrant colors to match other bathroom accessories.

You are obviously looking for some guidance in your search for these bathroom beauties so one of the best ways is to do your initial research online checking out suppliers for brands and styles that like. Next, visit a number of plumbing suppliers or bathroom accessory showrooms in your locality and find out which of the vessel sinks is for you.

Another item involved in the choice of a vessel sink is the vanity cabinet that you will be having it plumbed into. A number of contemporary vanity cabinets are designed with a vessel sink inclusive so it is only a matter of finding a combination that suits your requirements.

Other style vanity cabinets can be fitted with whatever style sink you may desire so check out all the options with the retailer you select to supply your goods. The counter top is also important in this full combination unit so make sure it all fits together to achieve the stunning appearance you want to achieve.

While checking out the full range of vanity cabinets and sinks keep in mind that you will also require faucets and maybe a mirror to complete the total overall look for your bathroom vanity suite.

Home Decorating Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose a good-quality sofa?

Chrome Shelving Unit

I want a sofa that I'll be able to keep for years. What should I look for?

Chrome Shelving Unit

Hardwood frames that are glued and screwed in place are the most hardwearing. Quality sofas have individual coil springs; mid-price versions use zigzag springs; and budget ones have webbing. Washable, loose covers are good for families, and close-woven covers are durable. But to check if it's well-made, simply sit on it!

How do I make old floorboards look good?

Sand them with a specialist machine, starting with medium-grade abrasive paper, then going over it again with a fine-grade one. Give the floor three coats of varnish, sanding lightly by hand between coats.

Which blinds are best in lofts?

I've just had my loft converted and need to get some blinds for the windows. Is there an alternative to plain roller blinds?

You'll need blinds in your loft as the light will be very strong and will wake you up early in the morning in the summer. If you're after something a bit different, pleated blinds have a soft, pretty effect and diffuse light, while traditional roller blinds will help prevent light reflecting on computer and TV screens. Blackout versions are worth considering - they fit into channels at the sides of the window to stop light getting in around the edges - they're perfect for light sleepers. Venetian blinds are another option, allowing you to tilt the blinds as well as open and close them for maximum flexibility.

How do I try out paint colours without ruining my walls?

I can never decide which paint looks best in my room before I buy, and I don't really want to put patches of colour all over my walls for weeks. Is there a simpler way that will help me choose the right colour for my room?

Instead of painting tester pots directly onto the walls, use them to paint a large sheet cut from lining paper. The lining paper can then be easily moved around so you can try it on different walls, without spoiling the look of your room.

Can I use bold wallpaper in a small room?

My bedroom is tiny but I want to use a bold-patterned wallpaper. Nice or nasty?

Nice! A big pattern will have an impact in a small room, but use it on just one wall. Choose the colour of the wallpaper carefully - brights will make a small room feel smaller, and soft colour contrasts in the paper create a sense of space. Balance the overall effect by picking plain colours, subtle textures or small motifs for other furnishings.

How do I create a relaxing lighting scheme?

I'm fed up with only having an overhead light, as it doesn't make the room look very welcoming. How can I make it more relaxing?

Recessed ceiling-mounted spotlights or a pendant light will give you good overall light, but if that's your only source, the lighting can feel harsh. Soften the overall effect by adding a table lamp next to your sofa and a floor lamp or reading light near your armchair. You should be aiming for around two to three separate light sources for an average-sized room to create pools of light where you need them.

What's the best layout for a formal living room?

The kids have left home so I want to create a more formal living room. What's the best way to lay out it out?

If you want a formal room, whatever your style, the one rule is symmetry! Arrange furniture symmetrically and you'll give your room the grown-up look you're after. If you have plenty of space, move your sofa so it's facing two identical armchairs or an identical sofa. You can also use tricks like adding a pair of side tables with matching lamps, or arranging a set of four prints in matching frames on the wall. If you don't have the space for all of these different elements, choose smaller pieces such as carver chairs instead of upholstered versions. Then just arrange them around a focal point - whether it's a fireplace, window or a coffee table.

What good-value curtains work with sash windows?

I've got high ceilings and beautiful sash windows - but a tight budget. How should I dress them?

An elegant Roman blind will give a clean and simple finish to your room. Or, if you prefer curtains, don't think that having high ceilings means you can't get away with ready-mades. Sash windows look great with floor-length curtains, so choose the longest pair you can find. If they come up short, add a contrasting 'hem' to the bottom of the curtains for an elegant look. You don't even need to be a dab hand with a sewing machine as you can simply iron on some Vilene Extra Strong Wundaweb (£1.99 for 3m, http://www.amazon.co.uk) for a quick fix.

How do I revamp my interior doors?

I want to revamp my interior doors. I've sanded them down and chosen the paint, but I've heard there's a special way to do the job - can you explain?

Preparation is key. Wipe the door with a damp cloth to get rid of dust, then leave to dry. To paint, wedge the door open, remove the handle and fittings and slide a dustsheet underneath. If it's a panelled door, paint the mouldings around each of the recessed panels using an eggshell or gloss paint, then paint the panels, working from the top downwards. Paint the horizontal cross rails starting at the top and working down, then paint the vertical centre rail and two side rails. Finally, paint the door's side edges. A second coat is usually needed after the first has dried. When completely dry, pain the doorframe and surrounding architrave. If it's a plain door, imagine a vertical line down the centre, and horizontal lines running across, dividing it into eight or 10 squares. Paint the top left, then top right, working down. To paint a glazed door, stick masking tape around the edge of the panes to protect them. Then start by painting the mouldings as you would a regular panelled door.

What's the easiest way to use pattern?

I'm really keen on using plain colours in my home, but I'd also love to introduce a block of pattern to update my style. What's the easiest way for a pattern novice to get started?

Start small, limiting yourself to a few accessories such as a cushion or a lamp shade with a bold design. The easiest design to work with is one that has a white or cream background and a simple motif. Pick any patterns you want to use in just one colour, so you can add to the scheme as your confidence grows and you'll know that everything will always work together.

How can I divide up a long, narrow room?

I have a long, narrow living room - what's the best way to divide up the space, without doing any building work?

A long narrow room can feel quite daunting, so it's best to divide it up into two 'zones'. You might have a living zone and a dining zone, or a relaxation zone with the television, plus a quieter area for working. Use a sofa or open bookcase as a divider and you'll be left with two much more manageable room shapes. Use the structure of the room to decide what function would suit each area. For example, a focal point such as a fireplace is ideal for building a living area around, while the space by the window is great for a dining table or mini home office. Don't worry if there's no obvious focal point - if you use the area for entertaining, make your sofa the centre of attention.

What sort of carpets are suitable for hallways?

I've been told I need a heavy-duty carpet for my hall and landing, but i don't know exactly what I should be looking for. Can you help?

A carpet that's labelled 'Heavy Domestic' or 'Extra Heavy Domestic' should be able to cope with the high traffic of busy areas such as a hall and landing. To be certain the carpet has been rigorously tested, look for the Carpet Foundation Quality Mark. A carpet containing around 80% wool and 20% nylon is more resilient and less prone to flattening than other types, as nylon fibres are extremely hard wearing. Don't stint on underlay, as a good-quality version will prolong the life of the carpet even more.

What curtains work best against radiators?

My radiator is under my window, but I don't like short curtains. What are my options?

Teaming narrow dress curtains with a blind is a good solution. Dress curtains are narrower than standard curtains and aren't designed to draw across the window, so they won't prevent you enjoying the heat from the radiator, but they'll still give you the look you want.

Is there a knack to matching up patterned wallpaper?

I'm having a go at putting up wallpaper for the first time. Is there a knack to matching up patterns?

If the room has a focal point such as a fireplace, start papering here; otherwise, start from a window. When measuring the first wallpaper length, make sure a whole motif will be at the top of the wall, then allow an extra 5cm on the top and bottom, which you'll trim off later. If the wallpaper has a straight pattern repeat, the motifs will line up horizontally across the wall, and you need to cut each length starting at the same point in the design. If the design is offset, the motifs line up diagonally, so each length needs to be moved up or down to allow for this. Once you've hung the first length against a plumb line on the wall, you can slide the second length into position for a perfect match, or pull it away and reposition it.

Does blue paint have to look cold?

I want to paint my bedroom blue, but it's north-facing. Will it look too cold?

Blue needn't be a cold colour if you pick the right shade and balance it with some warmer tones. A sky blue will look cheerful, and can be warmed up with cream paintwork and peachy-toned highlights. Alternatively, pick out a blue paint that's close to violet and has a pinky tone. You can then accessorise with a pink, floral bedspread or curtains for a warmer look. In a north facing room, the blue shades to avoid are those that seem dull or have a grey tinge.

Can you help us locate a stunning feature radiator?

We are having an awful lot of difficulty finding a feature radiator for the living room. To be honest, we haven't been impressed by any of the the 'Art' radiators we've seen so far so thought we'd ask for expert advice instead. The wall dimensions are 4ft x 13ft.

There's been a huge push recently to turn radiators into sculptural pieces that can hang on the wall rather than being utility elements designed to blend into the home. Some are good, some are tragic , but they all cost a small fortune. Several of the most impressive are made by Caleido, who have produced a number of highly textural variations, such as their great Honey, Skin and Air models.

Where can I find curtain poles with the 'Wow' factor?

I've inherited a beautiful swagged curtain in a fantastic gold and black silk fabric. I'm planning on having it in the bedroom, but wanted to source some curtain poles and fittings that will keep the wow factor. We don't have much on offer in my area and the DIY stores' offerings are a little twee. Do you have any suggestions?

Fabricant designs and produces just the sort of fittings you're after, well detailed and individual. What's more it has a superb range of finishes to choose from (gunmetal is a favourite). The traditional finials and tiebacks are all there, but the contemporary selection has some real gems, like the Portcullis and Reeded designs. A popular pole size to use is the 50mm, and I'd budget about £800 for the full ensemble.

We want to match our original brickwork to that of our extension.

We're planning an extension and want to match the brickwork of the main house, but can't find anything that looks close. The building dates back to about 1820. Do you have any contacts?

There are about 2,000 types of bricks on the market, so there's usually something similar. As well as the huge range of new bricks, there's a massive market for reclaimed brick, so check your local architectural yard. Builders merchants are also usually good sources, but your best bet is to call in the specialists like Brick Find.

Is coloured lighting in a bathroom floor possible and, if so, is it safe?

I've seen a picture of a bathroom with coloured lighting in the floor, which I'm interested in recreating at home. Do you know of a supplier, and is this lighting really safe for the bathroom, as I have a very inquisitive two year old?

I imagine you saw fibre optic lights rather than halogen, which, although they run on a safer low voltage, get very hot. Fibre optics are perfectly safe for wet areas like bathrooms and also outdoors, because the actual light source can be housed out of harm's reach, many metres away. All that's required is to route the fibre-optic ropes (which are just like a tube that the light is piped down) to where you need the lighting, and then cap with the finishing lens fitting.

Be warned: colour changing lighting can be more disco than spa if not done professionally, so sticking with static colours is recommended. The positioning and the installation still need to be well considered and competently carried out, so don't rush into fitting this type of lighting just on a whim.

Good-quality fibre optic kits can be bought online for around £400 through Unlimited Light.

How can we display our photos and children's pictures?

We've got lots of our sons' school and nursery pictures and we've been searching for a way to display them. We did see a solution in a magazine, which was almost like a washing line - a suspended wire you could peg pictures to. Do you have any ideas?

Yes, the 'washing line' idea is probably the most simple way to clip up pictures. Just hang a wire or string between wall hooks and attach the pictures with wooden clothes pegs which can be painted any colour you like. Another idea is to designate a 'graffiti wall' space to display art, painting picture areas and frames, which can then be filled up. You could also paper a wall in the now classic wallpaper 'Frames' by Chris Taylor and Craig Wood for Graham & Brown (0800 328 8452).

Is there a company that stocks Japanese soak-in baths in the UK?

We are about to start designing our first flat. The bathroom is very small and we would love to have a Japanese soak-in bath to enable us to have a shower as well. We have looked through lots of UK websites, but nobody seems to have what we're after. Any ideas?

What you're looking for is sometimes referred to as a Roman bath and many people in the UK are interested in sourcing these. Unfortunately, although they are common elsewhere in the world, we've not yet found anyone who imports them to the UK. Your best option may be to have one specially made up. Eros2 can produce bespoke granite and marble/resin shower trays in a range of colours, so you'll be able to have something unique tailored to fit your requirements exactly.

Can we use stainless steel as a splashback on a curved wall?

We are planning to refit our kitchen soon and would like to use stainless steel as a splashback. The problem is that the walls are very curvy and the oven sits in an alcove that's quite rounded. Where can we get sheet metal made to fit this complicated wall?

It sounds as if you're setting yourself a rather difficult task with a surface that's as complex as this. Sheet stainless steel is easily fabricated for flat surfaces and simple rolled curves, but anything more demanding than this and you could end up with messy welds, folds and seams that would ruin the whole look. Your best solution when working with curved surfaces is to go for mosaic tiles, and there's a stunning range of metallic tiles called Metallismo produced by SICIS. The tiles are rust- and scratch-resistant, are available in both gold and silver, and there's even a unique mixed range in various mosaic shapes. So, rather than have a fairly uninspiring run of plain stainless steel splashback, you could create something really breathtaking.

Can you suggest a light fitting to complement our dark, richly decorated living room?

We'd love some advice on a suitable hanging shade for our living room. The area is panelled and has dark-wood flooring, plus we have deep reds, greys and brass fittings within the colour scheme. We want the space to keep its dark, smoking-room look, and need a light fitting that would complement this.

If you want to preserve the 'gentleman's club' feel of the room, then I'd suggest not choosing a bright shade, but one that conceals light. It needs to have a definite air of grandeur and solidity, so no wispy lighting features here. CTO's Apollonaire range would be perfect. It has an elegant embassy-look black cotton shade with a fabulous hidden gold interior.

Can you help me find a product that provides natural light in a dark room?

I'm searching for a product I know is available, but whenever I ask at local builders' merchants, they look at me as if I'm talking a different language. The product is a cylindrical tube that has a mirrored internal surface and a clear tile cover to the top and the base. It's used to provide natural light in a dark internal space. would also assume it can be extended to allow for variations in depths between roof and ceiling covers.

The product you're looking for is called a sun pipe. It's basically a very highly polished/mirrored tube with a lens on top that collects light and funnels it down the tube.

Is it safe to adapt Ikea shelving units?

We have an Ikea shelving system in our study that my husband wants to 'adapt' to fit a disparate collection of hi-fi equipment. Is it OK to cut and add to shelving like this, or will we end up with something unsafe and unusable?

Adapting Ikea products is not for the faint-hearted. Because of the materials Ikea uses, you may end up with messy edges and you could lose some of the structure's rigidity. It may be worth getting a joiner to make it up 18mm MDF instead, or check out the range of adapted Billy shelves at Ding3000.

Is it possible to dye or stain laminate flooring to match existing flooring?

My son's south London flat was mainly laid with a laminate floor when he bought it. The long hallways was carpeted, however, so he replaced it wit ha laminate. Unfortunately, it's a much lighter shade than the existing flooring. Is it possible to dye or stain laminate flooring to match and, if so, where could I source such a product?

Not a chance! Laminate is actually a paper photoprint coated with resin and, because of its resistant properties, you'll have no luck tinting it. If you want to change the colour, your only option is to go for a new floor. It's possible to lay a new one on top of the existing floor, but you may then have to re-set the skirting boards and cut the bottom of the doors to the higher floor level. However, as laminate is a poor imitation of wood and you can now get the real thing for a good price, why not replace it entirely? Engineered wood boards are slices of real wood sandwiched with insulation that absorbs noise. They can also be sanded in the future. Kahrs does engineered boards from £16 per sq m. Or visit Wickes, which sell solid pine flooring for less than £15 per sq m.

Where can I get a modern turned wood table without a designer price tag?

I've seen a gorgeous red table that's made by Zanotta with a turned wood stem. It's out of my price range, but I'd love something similar. Any ideas where to look?

The Zanotta table you mean is the Doris by Dominique Mathieu. This season there's turned detail on lots of pieces of designer furniture, so you shouldn't have to look too far to get something close to what you have in mind. For starters, Habitat does the Spin table by Alex Dreyer, £499, which is nice and sleek, but not red unfortunately. If you really want that colour, then another option is to buy an antique piece and paint it in RAL3003, which you can get mixed up in Dulux paint. Now is a very good time to buy, as prices have tumbled. And don't be put off by things that aren't exactly what you are looking for; a lot of antique furniture can easily be updated wit ha splash of colour or new upholstery, so get down to your local auction room.

I need inspiration to help create a Fifties-style diner kitchen.

I'm looking to get some inspiration and help to design a Fifties-style kitchen-diner. I don't have a lot of space, but I'm happy to take on board any ideas.

In the Fifties, Italian cafés in London featured great materials, like strongly patterned Formicas, chrome trims, sharp angles,expressive typefaces and coherent interiors that were expertly detailed..

The glass in my Forties dining-room-divied needs replacing. Where can I get similar glass?

I'm trying to find a special patterned glass for a Forties dining-room divider. The divider is made from teak and has long, vertical panels of glass with bumped stripes , which look like a lens. Unfortunately, one of the three panels is badly damaged and our local glazier has told us we are unlikely to find anything like it. Can you help?

I think you're describing 'reeded' glass. It's not common and you may find that modern versions have thinner reeds than older glass, which tends to be more pronounced. Pearsons Glass has a few designs with reeding up to 8mm wide which costs around £45 per sq m.

Where can I get set of large curtains dyed?

I've inherited a set of large (8ft drop) cotton curtains with swags and cords. The overall size and shape is perfect for where I'm going to use them, but the colour is all wrong. I've searched for someone to dye them to a more usable colour, but no one can do this size of curtain, and I wonder if you know anyone that could help me.

Unfortunately, there are very few options in London (surely a gap in the market here! ), but Chalfont Ltd (020 7935 7316) in Baker Street can help you. Expect a turnaround of about five weeks and be aware that Chalfont only dyes natural fabrics, not synthetics.

I want to change my light switches, but the recesses are too shallow. What should I do?

I live in a Thirties mansion block and recently wanted to replace all the light switches with dimmers. When I removed one of the switches, the recess behind it was too shallow to contain the modern dimmer. Are there shallower switches or will I have to get all the recesses made deeper?

Most standard fittings are relatively thick unless you go for more complex electronic sensor switches, which we wouldn't recommend in your case. Any electrical work needs to be undertaken and certified by a qualified person (this is all to do with the Part P building regulations - find an electrician at niceic.org.uk). And also get the electrician to sort the recesses, too, to be on the safe side.

What's the best method of painting over strong colours?

What's the best method of painting over strong colours? I'm currently redecorating a buy-to-let flat that has garish green and red walls, which are a still showing through after three coats of paint. First paint over the colour with a grey undercoat. This deadens the colour and stops it coming through when you paint your final colour choice. Another factor to consider is that most DIY paints can be a little thin in their consistency, and therefore coverage, so it's worth spending a bit extra to buy professional paint. One of the best white emulsions around is made by JW Bollom.

How can I keep flies out of my house in the summer?

Now summer's finally here and I can open all the windows, I'm getting more and more annoyed by all the flies that get in the house. I don't want to put up nets or to keep windows shut all the time. Any ideas?

As we head for hotter summers, this problem is growing. After suffering the same problem myself, I discovered a brilliant (and cheap, at £1 per m) material - black 'dress net,' the stuff used for tutus and veils. Fixed across windows, it becomes almost invisible, but still allows a breeze through, so your home can look modern and have the windows open all night. Available in fabric stores and at Fabricland.

How to Choose Bathroom Cabinet Knobs and Handles

We have all heard the old adage that the small things in life matter most. This proverb can be applied to almost anything in life including your at-home projects. Every detail, down to the last square inch of your room should be meticulously planned ahead of time. Skimming over the fine points and solely focusing on the big picture can turn what was planned to be a perfect room into a major disaster. When remodeling your bathroom, therefore, invest proper time and effort in choosing the best bathroom cabinet knobs.

Chrome Shelving Unit

Make a Splash With Color

Chrome Shelving Unit

Believe it or not, you can vary the color of your cabinet hardware to add a unique element to your overall design. Average households and apartments feature traditional cabinet knobs in traditional metal such as chrome, iron, copper, brass and nickel. However, matching the metals with a complimentary finish could easily transform your mundane cabinet knobs to the perfect accent pieces on your cabinet drawers and shelving units. Popular elegant finishes include: oil rubbed, satin, matte, Swedish, weathered, polished and antiqued.

Not sure if these options are for you? There are other ultra trendy options available for you. Accent your white cabinets with colored glass cabinet pulls. The colored glass is literally available in any color in the spectrum. This way, you can perfectly match your towels, throw rugs and shower curtains with the right color. For a more contemporary style, mix and match these colors to create a funky, unique look. Be sure to limit your colors to two or three primary colors-you do not want too many bold colors competing with your eye.

Re-Install for Easier Access

Like many homeowners, there is probably just one door knob or towel rack that just does not seem to be in the right position. Oftentimes, previous owners move the height of light switches, cabinetry hardware and racks to accommodate their needs (which, chances are, are different from yours). Do not be afraid to change the location of your current bathroom cabinet handles. By moving these units just a half inch up, down, left or right, you might just find yourself having an easier time in the bathroom.

Shape Up Your Style

Your bathroom should reflect your and your family's personality and style. Unless you prefer plain cabinet pulls, consider installing new shapes that reflect, well, you! There are endless novelty cabinet knobs out there, just use your imagination. If you're a sea lover, adding delicate nickel sea horses, dolphins and starfish add a cozy, comfortable feel. Sports lovers can choose from the plethora of equipment pieces for football, soccer, baseball and basketball. Imagine redecorating the kids' bathroom - incorporating what they like; they'll love it!

When deciding what elements of your personality to include, do not limit yourself to bathroom hardware. By hanging photographs of the family at the beach, or the picture of your son's first home run, you'll create a comfortable environment that feels therapeutic instead of plain and sterile.

Practice Safety First

Finally, one of the most important elements to any bathroom is security. We have all had one embarrassing "walk-in" moment in our lives, and we'd sure like to prevent them. Test out your current locks; be sure that you cannot force your bathroom door open when the lock mechanism is engaged. This will prevent any accidents as well as ensure privacy for your guests. Additionally, if your family includes children and pets, you must install proper locking devices on cabinets that contain harmful chemical agents. Often, plastic child-proof locks can be easily manipulated. Chances are that if your child has seen you open the cabinet, they will figure out how to do the same. Do not take the risk of having an accident. Eliminate the dangers by keeping prescription medication and dangerous chemicals in a high, dry storage area where children and pets will be less likely to reach.

Contemporary Decor - Create a Stylish Living Room

Contemporary style focuses on a sense of open space with sleek, minimalist lines and stylistic restraint. But that doesn't mean it needs to be uncomfortable, cold or uninviting. With a little preplanning and attention to detail, you can create a contemporary living room that's big on style, function and comfort - and yes, you can create an inviting modern living space that's perfect for relaxing and entertaining without hiring a certified interior designer.

Chrome Shelving Unit

Your first step is to find an inspiration room that will guide you through the design process. Spend some time with interior design books and magazines to develop a file of rooms, colors, fabrics, furniture styles and accessories that appeal to you. Lay them all out on a table and look for similarities; this will help you define your goals, which will make it easier for you to choose colors and furnishings and end up with a room that will look as though a designer put it together for you. Organize your photos by room color and layout, furniture, accessories, flooring and window treatments and take this 'guide map' with you whenever you shop and make design choices about your room, while keeping the following key points in mind.

Chrome Shelving Unit

The Contemporary Color Palette

Contemporary rooms don't have to be black and white with accents of red and chrome. Light tones of airy colors, such as light blue and green, will bring a soothing, spacious tone to the walls. Let a beautiful bank of windows inspire your choices and bring the colors of nature indoors by mimicking the expanse of sky, grass, foliage or mountains. If the room has warm wood tones in the floor or trim, use a color on the walls that enhances the wood. Because stained wood can make some colors seem more yellow or orange than they would appear against white trim, try out the color first on poster board and see how it looks against the wood at different times of the day.

Functional, Comfortable Furniture

Sectional couches in luscious shades of espresso or coffee are a natural choice, especially when offsetting natural wood. But bolder shades and patterned fabrics can be used as well, as long as patterns are simply graphic or geometric. You'll often see side chairs done in a patterned fabric accenting a solid colored couch. Sturdy simple fabrics like micro suede and leather look sleek and are easy to maintain. Sectional couches let you add or remove components as needed so that you easily customize your space and choosing a unit with dense cushions will make it comfortable as well.

Add color accents by bringing in throw pillows, lamps and lamp shades, table top accessories and wall art that echoes the stylistic and color choices. Simple touches, like bamboo reeds displayed in a dramatic floor vase, can add interest to a corner.

Bring in an area rug to warm up a hardwood or tiled floor and anchor a seating area. Choose a geometric or color block rug in your accent colors, or use a nubby sisal rug to add some texture underfoot.

Accessorize with Stylish Wall Hangings

Metal wall art with strong geometrical lines will easily fit into a contemporary scheme. A bold contemporary wall mirror can be hung above a modern fireplace mantel to add space and reflect natural light.

Framed prints and contemporary paintings make a progressive statement above a large piece of furniture. Or choose a series of striking graphic floral prints and arrange them in a grid or gallery fashion along a wall. Contemporary wall art offers a wider range of stylistic options than ever before, so choose carefully and choose a piece that totally reflects your personality.

Office Furniture Essentials

Getting the right furniture for your office at the right price is an important challenge for you and your office manager. Furnishings for your office contribute significantly to the workplace atmosphere generated for your employees and visiting clients - vital if you want to create a good impression and foster good working practices.

Chrome Shelving Unit

The right office furnishings are also essential to meet health and safety standards and for creating a workspace that has a good sense of flow and order to it. The category of "office furnishings" can cover everything from chairs and desks to cupboards and filing cabinets. Office furniture also encompasses those all important areas of reception and conference or meeting rooms - your most vital spaces when it comes to creating a good impression for your clients and associates.

Chrome Shelving Unit

If your workplace is of any considerable size, then you will also have a café, bistro or rest room for employees. In a space such as this, you are looking for a well-priced, comfortable range of furniture that compliments the rest of your office design, while also standing slightly apart from it in look and feel. Office managers, company directors and anyone else interested in looking for great quality, well-priced office furniture will be pleased to know that ABT offers an excellent selection available to view and buy online.

The essential piece of office furniture - and often the hardest to get right - is the office chair. ABT offer 44 different types of office chair - from the luxury ergonomic range of the spectrum down to a simple, value-for-money, folding chair for occasional use in conferences and meetings.

The glider chair is stocked in range of colours - with many other fabric colours available to order - and represents a stylish, portable, folding solution to your seating needs. All glider chairs come with light, silver legs and are fitted on wheels. They can be folded neatly together when not in use and have been designed to come with or without arms, depending on your preference.

Ergonomic chairs are ideal for your employees' workstations, providing lumbar support to varying degrees, depending on the design of the chair, and coming with a range of physical requirements in mind. When you are sitting at your desk all day, it is essential to have good posture support from your chair. ABT offer a range of chairs with this facility, including the Medium Back PCB Chair, with adjustable height and back tile, a five-wheeled base and available with or without arms. The High Back PCB Chair offers extended lumbar support and both chairs come in a selection of stocked fabrics, with a wider selection of colours available to order from ABT.

Executive chairs are, of course, the ultimate in office luxury and the Aegean Leather Chair from ABT is a fine example of this. A high level of design thought has gone into the chair, making it the ultimate in executive comfort. It has a low, waterfall-style seat, meaning no unnecessary pressure is applied to the underside of the leg, which can restrict blood flow. The shaped backrest is fully adjustable and the chair also comes with a seat slide - for different thigh lengths - a gas pump capable of bearing up to 25 stone in weight and a lumbar pump.

Office desks serve a range of functions in your workplace and ABT offer a full range of solutions for all your desk needs at great prices. Whether you need a computer desk, a writing desk, desks for a meeting room, executive desks, or a range of desks that slot together for an open-plan office environment that flows, there is something to suit at the right price.

Bench-desking is a great option when you need to seat banks of your employees closely together, while still giving each person their own space and offering a modern design solution. Bench-desks enable you to seat people in rows, facing each other, which is great for easy communication across the office space. The bench desks available from ABT all have wire-managed legs and troughs for easy workstation set-up, as well as desk screens and ten colour options. The bench-desking range also complies with European standards.

The Adapta Radial desk range from ABT follows the latest and most stylish trends for office layout and design, seating up to four people around an ergonomically-designed cross shape. This layout is great for open-plan working, while also giving each individual a clearly-defined and private work space. Screens are available in this range and the desks themselves come in eight modern colour options.

The Adapta Boardroom range from ABT is a flexible desk range for meetings and conferences. The range comes in three shapes - square, rectangular and circular - and eight different colour finishes and will give a contemporary design feel to your boardroom or meeting room space. Good storage is essential for a well-maintained and organized workplace. ABT offer many different storage solutions and ranges to suit every office need, designed to help your employees with their day-to-day work and helping to maintain a pleasant office environment.

Traditional filing cabinets are still an important part of the office space and help us to keep a range of documents securely filed and organized while remaining easily accessible. ABT's metal filing cabinets are sleek, modern and conform to the required health and safety standards. They are available in three stylish colours - goose grey, black and coffee & cream - and come with a two, three or four-drawer option.

The Aqua Storage range from ABT is the perfect storage option for a modern office, as it is well-designed in a contemporary finish. Full-door and half-door cupboards are available in this range, with different open-shelf options and the cupboards are made from textured aluminum, with doors available in a textured aluminum, pear, or maple finish. The cupboards are designed with modern A4 filing in mind and shelving is available separately, so you can really customize each cupboard for your individual storage needs.

Do you have a large amount of sensitive or important material that requires mass, on-site storage? Take a look at the InnerSpace high-density storage system, available from ABT. This system makes the best possible use of your storage floor space, comes made to your specification and has been designed to be easy to order and install. Options are available on the height, bay width and shelf depth of your InnerSpace system and you can even move the system if you need to, as it has been designed to require no fixing to floors or walls, despite the amount of material it is capable of holding.

Are you looking for bistro tables and chairs? If you have a café or informal rest area for your staff, ABT offer a chic, modern range of furnishings to suit all budgets and requirements. Creating a dedicated area for your employees to meet informally, eat lunch or take a relaxing break will encourage them to feel valued by their employer and make their downtime more relaxing, which will, in turn, lead to greater productivity in the workplace.

ABT offer stylish rectangular, laminate bistro tables, available in cream, white and beech, and fitted with sleek chrome legs. These tables will create a modern classic feel in any bistro area and their size is perfect for several staff to share together at once, encouraging interaction among your employees. Small, round bistro tables are also available from ABT. These tables are available in striking black and white and are ideal for two people to sit at together. These bistro tables will help to create an informal, coffee-shop feel to a space and are also a good location for informal one-to-one work meetings and catch-ups.

Three great bistro seating options are available from ABT at value-for-money prices. For versatility with style, stackable chairs can be moved and stored easily to create more space when required. These chairs are constructed of polyfibre with chrome legs and can be ordered in a cream, burgundy or blue finish.

The wooden bistro seat from ABT comes in a beech finish with chrome legs and is a stylish, more robust and permanent seating solution for your bistro area. Finally, the Pear bistro chair has an ergonomic pear-shape and offers comfort while also having a contemporary look. The chair seat and back is made of polyfibre, with chrome legs and the Pear is available from ABT in the striking colour options of yellow, red, blue, black and green. Your reception furniture serves an essential function - creating the first impression of your workplace to potential and current clients. ABT can offer a range of reception furniture to cater to your individual needs with a selection of designs and finishes.

The Craft Reception Counter is a beautiful, curved reception desk with a solid appearance made of individually cut wood - with a choice of light oak or steamed beech. The Xec Reception Counter offers a long, rounded salon reception design and is available to your bespoke requirements with a vast range of wood glass and metal finishes available.

The Contract Reception Counter is great for smaller, less formal reception areas, with great storage options available within the counter design. Curved and rectangular floor-standing units are available and the counter is fitted with handy cable management ports and a silver kick-strip along its base. The Contract Reception Counter comes in beech, oak and pear finishing options.

ABT also offers a range of seating for your clients and guests, including the Arch seating range, which can be ordered in leather and mock leather and is available as a chair, double sofa or triple sofa. Other seating options available from ABT include tub chairs in a range of fabrics, the modern Serpent range of seating with matching coffee table - also available in a range of fabrics - and a traditional, wood-framed seating range, as a chair or armchair, with matching table available.

Looking for conference furniture? The right conference furniture can create a great impression of your business among your workforce, as well as impressing all-important current and future clients. A range of conference furniture is available from ABT to suit the individual requirements of your business and the range also represents great value for money.

ABT offers a choice of nine different collections of conference furniture. The Zaz! range features a system of impressive, interlocking glass-top tables, with a choice of blue or white glass finishes - the white and blue can look great together to create contrast when interlocking the table system. The Zaz! range also comes with a laminate veneer of cherry, grey, maple or blue for those looking for a different design option.

The director range is both classic and very modern and has a real luxury design feel to it. The tables are available in a range of well-designed shapes and feature a wood veneer with solid wood edging - the veneer is available in cherry, beech or wenga.

The Craft range is manufactured in the UK and has a large number of options, including a wide selection of table shapes and sizes and even a cupboard featuring an 800-watt fridge - to keep conference refreshments cool. The Craft range is a great option for furnishing large, functional conference spaces while still maintaining a modern, corporate look in any space.

Other conference furniture ranges available from ABT include the Aqua range - a boardroom-style table with different options - and the S Series, which is a great option for smaller conference and meeting rooms. ABT also offers a range of more functional conference room furniture for those on a budget, as well as a range that is well suited to any rooms used for training purposes.

Vintage Kitchens of the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s

1930s: The Steam-lined -Depression Era "Modern Kitchen"

Chrome Shelving Unit

By the 1930's, the kitchen was being transformed from the old fashioned kitchen to the "Streamlined-Modern Kitchen" with time saving features, better organization and much improved ventilation. The "all-electric kitchen" was promoted in popular magazines with numerous advertisements showing newly designed small and major appliances. Mixers were the homemakers dream now designed with numerous attachments that could sift flour, mix dough, grate cheese, squeeze lemons, whip potatoes, shred, slice and chop vegetables and even sharpen knives. "Depression Green" was the "in" color used on the wooden handles of kitchen utensils, on kitchen cabinets and tables and on kitchen wares. Often accessories were cream and green replacing the white and black look of the previous decades.

Chrome Shelving Unit

Other popular color combinations in the 1930s were Gray and Red or Crimson, Silver and Green, Pearl Pink and Blue, as well as the use of checkered patterns on textiles. Kitchen wares such as canisters and Bread boxes tended to be softly painted with perhaps a simple decal.

In 1935 the National Modernization Bureau was established to promote modernization throughout the country. Manufacturers competed for better designed appliances and kitchen accessories. Color began to enter the kitchens of the thirties and articles in magazines featured decorating tips on color schemes and how to incorporate the kitchen into the rest of the home. Kitchens were no longer work stations but gaining as much attention as the rest of the home. Small and large appliances were available in color and Sears and Montgomery Ward featured colorful kitchen wares and "japanned" accessories such as canister sets, range sets, cake savers, bread boxes and waste baskets.

1940s: The Postwar Colorful Era

The Post War kitchen of the 1940's began to become family gathering places and now tables and chairs made of chrome bases with enamel, linoleum or plastic tops could be added to a more spacious kitchen which replaced the smaller work centered earlier kitchens. Separate formal dining rooms were being replaced by kitchens that could accommodate the family and guests. The kitchen was becoming a very inviting space and primary colors dominated the interior décor palette. Magazines advertised products for your "Gay Modern Kitchen". Combinations of red, green and yellow or red and black were popular as well as brightly colored tablecloths, textiles and curtains. Flowers, fruits and Dutch motif were in vogue and found on shelving paper, trim, decals and kitchenwares. Appliances continued to be produced with streamlined designs, rounded corners and smaller proportions. The combination washer/dishwasher was introduced as well as the garbage disposal and freezers for home use.

1950s: The Atomic Era-Pastel Color-Space Age

Dramatic changes would occur in the kitchens of the 1950's as space age, atomic era designs and materials entered the scene. The fifties kitchen featured plastics, pastel colors such turquoise or aqua, pink and yellow (cottage colors), Formica and chrome kitchen table and chair sets matched formica kitchen counters and were easy to keep clean with messy little ones. After the war there was more time for leisure promoting kitchenware's and accessories for picnics, barbecues, parties and the home bar.

The introduction of color T.V. in the 1950s brought full color into America's living rooms where homemakers could now see all the exciting products and appliances available to them. Following World War II, there was a new generation of plastics and time for "gracious living" and entertaining. Kitchens and homes saw the transition from glass, ceramic and tin products to numerous types of plastics which made casual living easier. Melmac and Melamine dishes, Lustro-ware and Tupperware storage accessories and "thermowall" for picnics were a huge success. Vinyl was used for tablecloths, chair covers and furniture and bark cloth with boomerang and abstract shapes was popular. Tablecloths and dishcloths continued to be brightly colored and souvenir textiles were added to the home with tropical, Southwestern and Mexicana themes. Poodles, roosters and designs with kitchen utensils, tea pots and coffee pots decorated potholders, appliance covers and linens.
