Mid-century modern furniture were popularized by some of the most renowned designers following World War II, including Charles and Ray Eames, George Nakashima, and Hans Wegner. The TV series Mad Men based in New York City renewed interest in a fresh generation. Spearheaded by visionary industrial engineering and efficient mass production methods, the period produced some of the classics in interior design.

In the living room, wingback sofas and lounge chairs complement coffee tables molded from walnut wood. In the bedroom, geometric bed frames anchor two-toned dressers and nightstands with tapered legs.

For example, pair a gray mid-century modern sofa with a walnut coffee table. If you pick a citrus sofa, complement it with a white marble top table. For rugs, you can go simple with a solid color shag rug, or introduce a Moroccan rug for added artistry. Lighting is a very simple way to immediately apply a touch of mid-century modern. Floor lamps with tripod base, starburst ceiling lamps, and drooping arc floor lamps are some classic options. Similarly, an abstract wall art focusing on creative color plays harness a sense of nostalgia back to the 20th-century.
