Designing a space that feels intentional yet dynamic is the heart of eclectic contemporary design. By blending diverse influences and modern furniture styles, you can create an inviting home that reflects your personality. At Sklar Furnishings, our curated collection of contemporary furniture makes it easy to achieve a balance between contrast and cohesion.

A Common Thread Anchors Eclectic Design

Eclectic spaces thrive on a mix of styles, but the key to success is unification. A single design element—such as a material, color palette, or shape—can tie everything together. Consider the sleek elegance of modern sofas and sectionals to ground your space, then build layers of texture and form with unique accessories and accent pieces.

Anchor the Space with a Statement Sofa

Start with a versatile foundation like the Cocoon Sofa, whose clean lines make it the perfect canvas for adding bold, eclectic decor. Complement its streamlined silhouette with contrasting elements, such as an artisanal handwoven rug or vintage-inspired accent chairs.

Color Harmony: A Designer’s Secret Weapon

Color is essential in bringing together a diverse mix of modern and eclectic elements. Choose a dominant hue and weave it throughout the space, balancing contrast with cohesion.

For a living room, start with a neutral-tone modern sectional and layer in bold accent pieces like jewel-toned throw pillows and striking wall art. Stick to the 60-30-10 rule:

  • 60% dominant color (walls, large furniture pieces)
  • 30% secondary color (rugs, curtains, mid-sized furnishings)
  • 10% accent color (art, pillows, decorative accessories)

Layering Texture for Depth and Dimension

A truly curated space embraces the interplay of different materials and textures. Pair smooth, high-gloss surfaces like the

The Air Round Coffee Table with tactile elements such as woven textiles and natural wood finishes. Consider balancing a sleek modern dining table with upholstered dining chairs in rich, textured fabrics.

Balance Scale and Proportion in Eclectic Interiors

When mixing furniture styles, scale is just as important as aesthetic. A well-proportioned arrangement ensures the space feels intentional rather than cluttered.

For example, the sculptural curves of a Prisma IX Sofa Sofa pair beautifully with a minimalist glass coffee table, creating a visual dialogue between form and function.

In dining spaces, a large contemporary dining table can be balanced with lightweight, sculptural lighting—such as a statement chandelier—to maintain an open, airy feel.

Personal Touches That Elevate Your Space

Accessories add the finishing touch to eclectic decor, infusing warmth and personality into your home. Thoughtfully chosen statement pieces, such as the Phillips the White Sheep sculpture, can introduce whimsy without overwhelming the space. Meanwhile, curated collections of books, vases, or global artifacts create a lived-in yet refined aesthetic.

Lighting: The Key to a Cohesive Atmosphere

Modern lighting plays a pivotal role in bringing together an eclectic space. Whether it’s a sculptural pendant over a contemporary dining set or a sophisticated floor lamp in the living room, lighting choices should enhance both function and form.
