How did you catch the mid-century modern bug?
By lushpadI was digging through some old photos recently and came upon a picture of my first house in Edmonton. Alberta. I was about 21 when I fell in love with retro 1950s design and of course, being a designer I had to go whole hog and furnish and renovate my 1950’s bungalow down to every tiny retro detail.
Since then my tastes have become somewhat more refined, but that pink couch is still with me albeit reupholstered in a beautiful gun metal gray felt, and I’ve packed that turquoise slipper chair I bought for $15 at a farm sale in rural Alberta to Vancouver, Amsterdam, and back to Vancouver again.
Which leads me to wonder… how did your love affair with mid-century modern start?
If you've got a good story, let us know and we'll write about it on lushpad.

Grew up with Danish Modern furniture ... my Mom loved clean, simple lines and a minimal amount of "knick-knacks".
