Inspiration: Mid-Century Design

Aida Mollenkamp Mid-Century design gift ideas

I’ve been inspired by California Design every since my recent trip to LACMA latest exhibit. If you live in the Southern California area, I highly recommend checking it out, but even if you can’t make it, you can still embrace the aesthetic. Here are a few of my favorite finds — some more affordable than others — that scream mid-century design (and would make great holiday gifts too).

1. Eames Elephant

2. Bauer Refrigerator Stacking Container

3. California Design 1930-1965: Living In A Modern Way

4. Eames House Bird

5. Wilshire Boulevard Tea Towel Set

6. Arts & Architecture 1945-1954: The Complete Reprint

7. Pantone Espresso Cups


Inspiration is a reoccurring series where I share visual tabletop and kitchen design elements that are currently piquing my interest.
