What is Mid-Century Modern?

Is stíl dearaidh é Mid-Century Modern a bhí coitianta ó na 1940idí go dtí na 1960idí, ar a bhfuil línte ghlana, cruthanna organacha, agus simplíocht feidhmiúil.

Mid-Century Modern

A tháinig sé ó Meiriceá i ndiaidh an Dara Cogadh Domhanda, cuireann Mid-Century Modern béim ar spásanna gan rudaí iomarcacha, naisc idir laistigh agus lasmuigh gan seam, agus troscán le cruthanna geometracha agus ábhair nádúrtha mar teak, walnut, leathar, agus plywood mhúnlaithe. Cothaíonn sé mealltacht áilleachta le praiticiúlacht, ag léiriú tonnta talún ciúin nó dathanna accent láidre agus mion-ornas íseal.

Usage example
