Mid Century Furnishings
Mid century furnishings refer to furniture and home décor styles that emerged during the mid-20th century, roughly between the 1940s and 1970s. Characterised by clean lines, organic curves, and an emphasis on form meeting function, this timeless style continues to influence modern interior design.
Key Characteristics of Mid Century Furnishings:
-
Minimalist Silhouettes – Simplicity is central, with sleek, uncluttered lines and geometric shapes.
-
Natural Materials – Teak, walnut, oak, and leather are staples in authentic mid century furniture.
-
Tapered Legs – A signature design detail found on chairs, sofas, and tables alike.
-
Muted and Earthy Tones – Expect palettes of ochre, olive green, burnt orange, and mustard alongside natural wood finishes.
-
Functional Design – Every piece is created with usability in mind—beauty without compromising comfort or practicality.
How to Style Mid Century Furnishings:
To introduce mid century furnishings into your space, start with statement pieces like a sideboard, armchair, or coffee table. Pair these with bold art, subtle textures, and minimalist lighting. The goal is to maintain openness while incorporating personality through standout forms and retro-inspired tones.
Combine mid century items with modern accessories for a fresh take, or lean into vintage vibes by curating with layered textures and retro décor.
