Mid-century modern style furniture developed in the mid-20th century America, following World War II. One of the hallmarks of this style is simple lines. Mid-century modern furniture uses sleek shapes and very little ornamentation. If minimalist style furniture is a little too minimal for you, yet you want something simple and modern, mid-century modern could be your style!
Mid-century modern combines some of the best aspects of vintage and modern styles. It is excellent for people who want to balance comfort with simplicity. It’s also good for people who appreciate the modern serenity of neutral shades but who also enjoy the addition of cheerful, lively colors because this decorating style uses a mixture of muted colors, neutrals, and earth tones alongside brighter colors. The style uses a wide color palette. It’s common for mid-century modern furniture with bright upholstery to have natural wood bases and frames, although some pieces also have metal bases and frames. Overall, the style is comfortable and homey but also simple and flexible. Individual pieces can easily combine with many other styles and decorating tastes.
