Sacramento Furniture blog by McCreery's

McCreery’s Home Furnishings is a wonderful source for traditional furniture in Sacramento. In fact, people come from all over to find just the right period piece. But wait, we also have a great selection of contemporary furniture in Sacramento for those with a taste for a more modern approach to furnishing their homes.

Contemporary furniture is very adaptable and can look well in both traditional and modern homes. And, in many cases, it is smaller in scale than it’s traditional brothers.

It becomes a great choice for those in the downsizing mode because of that.With it’s straighter lines, contemporary design tends to emphasize beautiful woods and finishes.

McCreery’s has several sources for beautiful contemporary furniture ranging across the spectrum of price and quality. Most of our manufacturers, even the traditional ones, have collections which are contemporary. And several of our upholstery lines have the ability to choose contemporary styling on sofas, love seats, chairs.

One upholstery line which tends to have a more contemporary leaning is RC Furniture. They have some very exciting styles and beautiful fabrics to choose from to create a one-of-a-kind statement of your taste.

FFDM is another manufacturer which has some unusual and beautiful contemporary collections which are of the best quality. One of the lines we carry is the Tranqulities collection. The softened lines and geometric shaping of Tranquilities imply serenity that balances the movement suggested by burled veneers and the collection’s antiqued finish. Uniting Contemporary and Asian design elements, Tranquilities features parquet tops with burl veneers, block feet, rectangular shaping and tabbed pendants of hardware with a burnished coppery finish, to capture the attention of those who prefer simplicity with an equal measure of enthusiasm. A ringed, cone-shaped table in the collection reveals its parquet burl inlay under a glass top. Simple linear shaping contrasts with soft curves – in dining chair backs, or in cabinetry of case pieces. Rectangular headboard and dining table shapes are defined and intersected with darker strips of wood and glass wall units with mirrored backs flank the entertainment center. Tranquilities exudes the sleek simplicity of a Contemporary collection and the sophistication of Asian design elements in a blended design that honors both influences.

Better Homes and Gardens has a contemporary collection which has attracted a lot of attention around here with it’s creative designs and beautiful woods, and at a very affordable price.

Even those who prefer more traditional furniture can benefit from a piece of contemporary in their décor to act as a counterpoint to their look.
