Elevate Your Home’s Mid-Century Modern Style

The next step toward creating a beautiful mid-century modern style is choosing the right colors, textures, décor, and furniture. Keep reading for more helpful tips to bring this look to life in your new Toll Brothers home.

Color

From earthy and subdued to vibrant and bold, mid-century modern design’s eclectic color palette can create a wide spectrum of looks. Earthy tones and neutrals are often combined with bright primary colors and complementary shades like teal and orange. For example, you can add pops of color to neutral living room walls through art and furniture.

Texture

Mid-century modern style embraces contrasting textures, such as mirror-like chrome and plush shag rugs. Elements such as grasscloth wallpaper, tweed fabrics, and acrylic accents provide tactile depth that balances the style’s signature clean lines. Layering different textures will help make this design style feel cohesive and complete.

Décor and Furniture

The popularity of mid-century modern design makes it easy to find vintage treasures and newly crafted pieces for your home. Wood furniture with tapered legs, crisp lines, and brass accents will lay a timeless foundation. Layer in leather seating and glass-topped tables, then energize the space with accents such as abstract art, bold geometric prints, and sleek metal sculptures.
