When choosing your mid-century furniture, look for its most iconic aspects: clean lines, brass and wooden details, sleek legs. A great mid-century sofa should be upholstered in a comfortable fabric, and feature wooden or brass tapered legs. Our suggestion is Marco, by Essential Home, that can be upholstered in any fabric of our choosing!

2. Choose the right accent chair to go with it

An essential in every mid-century living room is an armchair. But it shouldn’t just be any chair… The first half of the 20th century was marked by the conception of iconic chairs that are still being manufactured today, which means mid-century armchairs are somewhat of a big deal.

We believe any room should have a mandatory feature: coziness. Every room of your home should be comfortable and able to invite you in on its own, and a rug is halfway through achieving that look! Our suggestion for your modern living room decor is Audrey Rug by Essential Home.

4. Let there be light

5. Bring in the coffee
