39 Moderntique Furniture Creations
From Whimsical Contemporary Decor to Tattooed Furniture:
Meghan Young — Oct 6, 2009 — Art & Design
A trend that my Victorian love affair can truly latch onto is this artsy antiquesque furniture one that is currently taking over. From fantastical design art showcased at the London Design Festival 2009 to famous industrial designer ‘moderntique’ shelving units, modern minimalism is rendez-vous-ing with heavily with artsy surrealism. If you’re considering changing your home decor, make sure you reference this cluster.
