Christmas: Contemporary Decorating Ideas

If you’re a modernist at heart and are scared about the idea of all those flashy decks and glitzy tinsel this Christmas, don’t fear – a more delicate, elegant festive look is possible! Keep things simple and choose a palette of shimmery metallics, delicate white, and natural tones. Let’s skip the cliches in favour of what’s new, trending, or simply irresistibly cool. Ready to be inspired? 

CREATE A FOCAL POINT

A couple of simple decorations can make for the coolest Christmas display. Create a focal point in the room and accentuate the festive look – Stick to a palette of black and white or mix modern with a little rustic for an overwhelming sense of peace, calm, and tranquillity.

KEEP IT NATURAL

Make the most of the natural materials and organic shades by fusing them with your own décor. If you are put off by the idea of a traditional foliage wreath, a simple ring of pine branches makes for the most spirited and striking wreath – Use silver pine in your Christmas decoration, it’s an especially contemporary-looking pine species, known for its beautiful silvery-sage colour.

ADD METALLICS 

If you want to achieve that modern look, sprinkle the Christmas trimmings with touches of metallics. You can never go wrong with a silver and bronze combo, or keep it simple and elegant with gold hues. Adding just the right amount of shine will bring instant glamour to any room. 

KEEP IT PLAYFUL

Channelling a modern Christmas vibe doesn’t have to equate to an instant colour ban. Try to work with what you already have and sprinkle here and there with colourful and fun Christmas accents – Natural elements look charming and contemporary when mixed with vibrant decorations, shiny accessories, and modern ornaments. Let’s create a little excitement with fun decorations, it’s Christmas, after all…
