We know what you’re thinking. The words “Amish” and “Modern” don’t belong in the same sentence.
But remember, Amish is NOT a style. It’s a way of handcrafting furniture–and that includes ALL styles of furniture.
Yes, even Modern Contemporary furniture.
Stemming from the Modernism movement of the late 19th to mid-20th century, minimalistic Modern furniture evolved as a reaction against earlier, more ornamental designs. That paved the way for Contemporary style furniture, which incorporates the clean lines and simplicity of Modern but with a nod to the boldness and flair of art deco and postmodernism.
Combine the two and you get one of our all-time favorite styles: Modern Contemporary.
You’ll know it’s Modern Contemporary by the:
- Straight lines
- Geometric shapes
- Metal accents
- Sleek, clean aesthetic
- Lack of ornate detailing
We especially love how Modern Contemporary combines new and old materials in unexpected ways.
Come see for yourself. The possibilities are endless.
