If you’re a true mid-century design aficionado, you just found the right article! Today, we’ll tell you all the history of one of the trendiest aesthetics and the importance of lighting in our homes and hospitality design projects. Check out the charming true story of how mid-century lighting pieces took over the design world.
Trends come and go, but some design elements remain iconic: beautiful classic inspired mid-century lighting pieces with a contemporary twist. In our new series, we’ll dig into our favorite design-world icons and uncover the surprising (and sometimes strange) history behind them!
While many design trends come and go, the midcentury modern style is well-entrenched in today’s design vocabulary.
Mid-century modern style is a style of interior design characterized by a contemporary, somewhat futuristic aesthetic and an emphasis on function.
The style rose to prominence in 1950s and 1960s America, took a bit of a dive thereafter, and experienced a resurgence in the mid-80s, borne of people’s nostalgia for its contrasting colors and materials, its focus on functionality above all else, and its simplicity of form—and we’ve been pretty much obsessed with it ever since. Perhaps the most compelling reason the movement has become so rooted in twenty-first-century design is its contemporary feel.
But, as with any interior design style, sticking too literally to the midcentury theme can make a room look too contrived, or worse yet, super-dated.
