Mid-Century Home
Below is a short summary on Mid-Century Modern Design:
Mid Century Modern Design has become very popular again. The design era of the 1950's was driven by the need for simplicity, clean lines and functionality. This era is noted for a lack of ornamentation, minimalist design and open floor plans. Large windows opening the indoors to the outdoors was a key architectural design element. Other design elements include a lot of wood, metal, color, curves and unique shapes.
The wood veneer flat door kitchen cabinet blends perfectly into the mid century concept. Teak wood furniture was the most popular wood in the 50's. Terrazzo tiles for floors, counters and backsplashes are signatures of mid-century design and are all the rage today. Terrazzo is colorful and playful! Black and white checkered floors, hardwood and cork floors were also popular.
We see these elements designed into many of our projects. People desire more simple homes that connect with nature. We happen to love this look too!
