From interior design to architecture to typography, we see an ode to Mid-Century Modern in many modern day designs, making it a staple in today’s home settings. Ranging from the 30’s through the 50’s, Mid-Century Modern in architecture and interior design, worked to create an environment that brought the outside in, with large windows, open floor plans, straight forward clean lines and a minimalist form.

Sometimes a Mid-Century Modern home was complete with built in shelving in the den or living room, kitchen cabinets that had tucked away counter space, that pulled out when needed, or laundry baskets built into bathroom walls, making each home of this time, very functional, yet unique. Along with the sometimes space-age like home design, much of the industrial design of this time used wood in a modern way, such as the Eames Molded Plywood chair, Noguchi table, or the sleek style of a Danish Modern designed piece of furniture, which is another aspect of the Mid-Century Modern era.
