THE SUMMER OF TRENDS: A RETURN TO MID-CENTURY DESIGN

File Under: General by Excel Team

Frank Lloyd Wright would be thrilled to see this week’s trend, which heralds a return of the clean and simple architecture of the mid-20th century. Among the Wright-like themes enjoying a resurgence in the 21st century are integrations with nature and floor plans with plenty of natural light.

Excel Homes architects who have been onto the trend for a few years now, have echoed Wright’s designs in our Starting Line-up Prairie View model (pictured above). We should point out that the return to mid-century themes, in both the design of the home and the décor, isn’t a new development. It’s been happening for years, but the convergence of trends involving green building practices and the downsizing of modern homes has pushed this design trend to the forefront.

If you’d like to test your knowledge of mid-century interior design, feel free to check out the quiz over on the TLC website. Score a 9 out of 12 or better and you’re well on your way to channeling your inner Frank Lloyd from the comfort of your Eames chair in the den.
