Collection: Mid-century Modern Art

Mid-century design is one of the most popular styles for interior designers creating a classic and elegant look inspired by vintage furniture designs from the 1940s up to the 1960s. Using wood accents, patterns, shapes and colours to create a modern look with an authentic feel. 

Mid-century design is more than just a style; it’s a philosophy that prioritises beauty, functionality, and innovation. Its timeless appeal ensures that it will remain a cornerstone of interior design for generations to come. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or a newcomer to the style, mid-century design offers endless opportunities to create spaces that are as stylish as they are liveable.

What exactly is Mid-Century Modern art?

Clean & Simple: It's the opposite of ornate. The style favours clean lines, uncluttered compositions, and minimalism.

Geometric & Organic: It famously blends sharp, man-made geometric shapes (like sunbursts, circles, and boomerangs) with soft, flowing organic shapes inspired by nature.

A Unique Colour Palette: The art often features a very distinct colour palette, mixing deep, earthy tones (like olive green, mustard yellow, and burnt orange) with bright, optimistic pops of colour (like teal or cherry red).

Abstract is Key: A lot of the art is abstract, focusing on colour and form rather than painting a realistic picture of something.

Think of the art you'd see hanging in a home from the show Mad Men—that's the essence of the style.
