Curate your Space in Mid-Century Modern Goodness

While there is much to love about a classically retro look in a home, this new trend escapes feeling too dated through adding a new-and-improved, sophisticated tone to its features. Lending itself to feelings of nostalgia all the while remaining modern and up with the latest.

But, for those not in the know, you may be questioning what Mid-century modern decor and styling actually is. Simply put, it is a sleek and timeless look that relies on juxtaposing sleek lines (think skinny, peg leg dresses and tables) and organic classic shapes on traditional pieces.

To start off the quick history lesson in mid-century modern, it is important to know that it spanned from around the 1930s to 1960s. It was seen in interiors, architecture, furniture, urban design, and graphic design, and really took the decor world by storm.

As it can be a little confusing to figure out the best way to adopt a trend in your home, out of fear of having to completely start from scratch, we suggest starting small. Get familiar with the trend, the pieces that really speak to your style, and start from there.

We personally love the thought of kicking back in the Adairs Dune Boucle Chair, drinking from a Country Road Hazel Cocktail Glass, devouring the Phaidon Atlas of Mid-Century Modern Houses book.

For new adopters of this style, it can also be comforting to know that it is a timeless look that will continue to stand strong and leave your guests feeling like they are arriving home.
