Organic and functional
Mid-Century Modern has had a lasting impact with heavy influence coming from the Bauhaus movement.
Bold colors, rounded forms, clean decorations and functionality are core characteristics of Mid-Century Modern design.
Queen's Gambit and Mad Men are good examples of this style. So are products like the Eames Chair, Noguchi table and SMEG products.
Takes on Mid-Century Modern are more diverse today. They incorporate new materials like recycled plastics, woods and cork. Typically parts are higher contrast and use bolder patterns today than what was seen before.
In short, it's stylish and functional. Mid-Century Modern will never completely die.
