About Mid-Century

At the start of any interior design project, you wonder what style should I choose? what style do I like? what style will look good in that space? what style will I feel comfortable with? Whether you’re decorating a single room or a whole house, a bungalow or a mansion the style will change dependant on the existing space and what is appropriate for it. The following list of interior design styles is not a definitive list but rather a selection of some of the most common or popular interior design styles, more styles exist and more are being created all the time. You should use this list to gain a basic understanding of common interior design styles and what is involved in each of them, how they differ and how to create them. Mid-Century modern style reappeared on our radar screens more than a decade ago, but the wildly popular show Mad Men has pushed it even farther into the limelight. Just as the name implies, it spanned a period of roughly two and a half decades in the middle of the 20th century, from the mid-1940s to 1970. Its uncomplicated, fresh aesthetic arose from a desire to propel postwar America into the modern era and recast design through a bold new lens. Mid-Century modern’s emphasis on pared-down forms, contemporary patterns, natural materials and a seamless flow between indoors and out create a medley of functional comfort and chic style. The look bridges the organic and the man-made, with one foot in the natural world and the other in brave new territory that still has the power to surprise us today. Mid-Century style is unique in that it’s largely driven by innovative mass-produced furniture and accents. Perhaps no other period produced the same volume of household-name artists and designers as this era: George Nelson, Charles and Ray Eames, Eero Saarinen and dozens more. Their singular furnishings and accents drive and define the look, from Marshmallow sofas to sculptural Egg and Womb chairs. (source: onlinedesignteacher.com & houzz.com)

    Exquisite Fulani young women ebony carved sculpture, Guinea, 1960s

    ,
    Absolutely stunning Guinean hand-carved ebony wood bust of a Fulani woman made during Mid-Century. The Fulani are a West African nomadic ethnic group. The ebony wooden carving details the intricate plaiting representing the traditional amazing hairstyles of the West African Fulani woman. The details of this hairstyle are depicted in vintage pictures. This is a rare and beautiful work of art through which the craftsman represents the beauty of the female form with the exceptional use of the chisel. President John F. Kennedy received in 1961 a similar bust of a Fulani woman from the Minister of the State for the Republic of Mali, a sculpture that is currently at JFK Library. The well-studied proportions, the attention paid to the smallest details, the overall artistic quality of the composition, and even the aged cracks present in the wood structure are as many signs of authenticity that make the difference between this decorative work of art and those made today.
