Cornerstones of Mid-Century Design - Asymmetry
Asymmetry, in a nutshell, is about balance...instead of matching.
In previous eras, impressive home design showed its classiness with repeating, matching elements along a central line. These elements feel formal, weighty and grand.
The mid-century aesthetic challenged this formality. Mid-century design is about being off-center and less structured, but still balanced.
In Today's Episode You'll Hear:
- Why asymmetry is a cornerstone of mid mod design.
- How balance can be more inviting than uniformity.
- Where symmetry makes sense.
