Mid Century Modern

Mid-century modern interior design is a style that emerged in the mid-20th century, characterized by simple, clean lines, organic forms, and emphasizes functionality, simplicity, and a connection to nature. This aesthetic features clean lines, organic shapes, and natural materials, often with a focus on the use of wood, metal, and glass.

To achieve this style, one can follow these steps:

  1. Use a neutral color palette: typically features a neutral color palette with pops of bold colors. Use colors such as beige, gray, white, and black, and add bold accent colors like orange, turquoise, or mustard yellow.

  2. Focus on clean lines and simple shapes: Choose furniture pieces with clean lines and simple shapes, such as a low-profile sofa or an armchair with a curved backrest.

  3. Incorporate natural materials like wood, leather, and stone. Use wood paneling on walls, incorporate leather chairs or sofas, or use stone floors.

  4. Add geometric patterns: Use patterned wallpaper, a geometric rug, or pillows with bold geometric patterns.

  5. Choose iconic mid-century modern furniture pieces, such as the Eames Lounge Chair or the Noguchi Coffee Table, can add authenticity to your mid-century modern design.

  6. Bring in nature: Incorporate natural elements like potted plants, wood accents, or large windows that allow natural light to flow in.
