Description

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. Get the full show notes with all the trimmings at https://www.midmod-midwest.com/1501
