Contemporary art & design at Mayfair Gallery London
Characterised by clean lines, textured minimalism, and changing trends, contemporary design defines the present moment. In the heart of London, a city known for its design innovation, Mayfair Gallery is a proud patron of quality contemporary craftsmanship, showcasing a variety of select practitioners whose works are marked by their superb quality, skill, and flair.
The origins of ‘contemporary design’ can be found in the 1970s following the mid-century-modern movement, where it was seen as an amalgamation of many styles popular at the time including Art Deco, modernism, and postmodernism. In the present day, ‘contemporary’ is often thought of as a style that sits somewhere between modern and minimalist, utilising sleek designs and a neutral colour palette that highlights the architecture of the space.
Contemporary design is definitively ‘current’, an ever-changing amalgam of different trends and influences. Contemporary interiors are defined by their eclecticism, mixing different styles and textures: carved woods, mixed metals, and soft fabrics come together in neutral tones, often infused with a pop of colour.
Just as contemporary design is defined by its diversity, Mayfair Gallery’s collection of contemporary design pieces is highly varied. From abstract to ornate, wooden to metallic, our cultivated selections of contemporary furniture, craft, and art will be sure to complement any modern interior.
