Last week I popped into Modernaire's new location in Oakland. After years in Berkeley, owner Bruce Crawford moved his carefully curated mid-century wares to a large, well lit space on Telegraph Ave. Living in a mid-century home, I'm naturally drawn to stores that represent the era, but what impressed me most about Modernaire was its wide array of accessories. Clocks, lamps, bowls, art and even a free standing fireplace were artfully displayed and available for sale. Any one of the items offered would be perfect for adding detail and personality to a space, mid-century or not. Take a look:
Room Inspiration: An Updated Mid-Century Office
This room was inspired by a client’s request for a "Mad Men" style work space with current day sensibilities. After perusing through these images, Cocoon Home came up with this modern mid-century office.
