"What I love about the company is that they are female-founded and support American-made furniture makers," says Brooklyn-based interior designer Alex Nino.

How to Spot Mid-Century Modern Furniture

Mid-century furniture has a classic, timeless style that is easy to mix and blend with other styles. Emily Jones, design advisor at Maiden Home, told us that mid-century is usually defined by:

  • Clean lines paired with strong prominent curves
  • Mixing heavily textured textiles with metals and woods for a blended material palette
  • Details are highlighted through texture and form while still feeling minimal

"A piece of furniture is mid-century modern when there’s a marriage between form, material, and function," says Jones. "Removing some of the frills and details prominent in traditional furniture’s silhouettes, mid century moves to highlight the beauty in simple forms."

Though simple in form, the Mercer’s steel frame contrasts with the cushion's curves to create harmony between the two differences.

"Mid-century modern pieces simplify highly detailed frames into stunning silhouettes emphasizing clean forms. Instead of intricate details in form, details are layered through materials, shape, and texture," Jones adds.

Why is Mid-Century Modern Furniture So Popular?

Despite being around for decades, mid-century modern furniture is as popular today as ever. "A Big part of the reason why mid-century modern design is so popular has to do with the fact that it combines two of the most important elements that people want to see in their homes: functionality and aesthetics," says Yoselin Castro, Senior Interior Designer at Mackenzie Collier Interiors.

"Having a home that is filled with practical furniture allows one to love and enjoy their space as much as possible and even more when it’s filled with beautiful things too," adds Castro.
