A lot of architecture began to change dramatically as it became more streamlined and emphasized simplicity and open space. In conjunction, furniture design evolved to using many different materials such as steel, plastic, and plywood – merging the machine made and factory produced with a more traditional and natural artistic practice.  ‘Architecture is the masterly, correct and magnificent play of masses brought together in light.

Perfect in pretty much every room, long and lean credenzas combine form and function with that extra bit of Scandinavian aesthetic charm. Useful for extra storage and display in the dining room, den, living room or bedroom these multifunctional units are also increasingly gaining popularity as media hubs. Mid century credenzas were created by a huge range of designers and manufacturers and can vary widely in both shape and material. We are just recently getting back from a big buying trip in Amsterdam and have a container load of vintage items that will be arrving in a few short weeks. Check out our Facebook page for images of what will be coming soon. If you can't wait, please come by and see our large selection of insanely incredible credenzas at our warehouse location as well as great storage pieces at our retail location at Mohawk General Store in Silverlake store.
