What is a contemporary door?

1 Answer
What is a contemporary door?
A contemporary door refers to a door that was designed in the present day. Although influenced by past movements like Art Deco and minimalism, contemporary design is the style of the present, and so is constantly changing. By definition, contemporary is fluid and can’t be tied to a particular period. On 1stDibs, you can find a variety of antique, new and vintage doors.
