Mid-Century Modern (MCM) is a style we have come back to after a long pause of beige. It’s characterized by lots of wood and fun shapes and colors!
This style originated in the middle of the 20th century and it did so because families wanted a break from intricate details and patterns.
They focused on a design that was simple yet organic! It became popular for its simple and clean lines!
One piece of furniture that encompasses all of these characteristics: wood, simple lines, organic material, etc. is the dining table!
So let’s take a look at how you can choose the best Mid-Century Modern dining table to suit your needs!
