contemporary style
an imprecise term applied to any of a number of architectural modes popular from
about the 1940s through the 1970s and beyond, sometimes included under the term
modern architecture; often characterized by widely overhanging eaves, exposed
roof beams, and front-facing gables with heavy piers that support the gables;
often, a balcony with an overhanging sunscreen, roof decks, and a patio that may
serve as an extension of the living area; another type has a façade and flat roof
resembling that of the international style.

modern architecture
a loose term applied since the late 19th century to buildings in a variety of
styles, in which emphasis is placed on functionalism, rationalism, and current
methods of construction, in contrast with architectural styles based on
historical precedents and traditional methods of building. this category often
includes art deco, art moderne, bauhaus, contemporary style, international
style, organic architecture, streamline moderne.

minimalist architecture
architecture that follows the doctrine that the use of all decorative elements,
including ornamentation and color, should be held to an absolute minimum. this
tenet considers all such architectural features to be nonessential and of
negative aesthetic value,thus promoting the concept attributed to mies van der
rohe that "less is more."
