6 Wall Murals for a Contemporary and Modern Space
It can be difficult to define exactly what characterizes the contemporary or modern aesthetic—its vast scope and diversity defies categorization. However, we can say that it tends to buck tradition, emphasize urban over rural, and embrace new technologies, styles and processes.
