Decorating : Mid-Century Style Interior

If you naturally like clean, sleek lines, and are looking for decor and furniture to match your tastes, you may be a fan of Mid-Century Modern style.  Officially coined a genre in the 1950's, Mid-Century Modern is categorized as an era of style spanning from the 1930's through the 1960's.  The style is noted by clean lines and a graphic quality.  Mid-Century style had a resurgence of popularity during the 1980's, but with devoted fans has achieved a constant appreciation.  Pieces from the era have become modern classics and are accepted with traditional decor.  When shopping ask for the style by name.

This colorful contemporary home by Sylvie Rochon is a perfect example and showcase of Mid-Century furniture and style.  Note the low table by Montreal artist Guy Monteur, which is a reinterpretation of a design produced by T. H. Robsjohn-Gibbings, the famous New York decorator from the 1940s and 1950s.
