Hi fellow mcm fans! We bought a mid century modern house a few years back and basically had to renovate the whole place. I did my best to save original features and keep the mcm style when bringing in new materials.

We are finally at a point where we are ready to paint the exterior of our house! It looks like a patchwork quilt right now with some patched areas etc.

I was thinking originally that I would paint the house white with black trim on the windows, doors, etc. I like the sharp contrast in those colors and down the road we’d like to get a nice bright front door in teal or tangerine.

Does anyone have color schemes they love on a mid century house? Ours is one story - I have a photo but don’t see an easy way to share.

I'm renovating my living room!

My house has a lot of mid-century elements, gorgeous yellow wood trim all through the house, stone fireplace, alcoves, and sconces.

I want to emphasize these original features in my living room renovation and create a space that looks sleek and embraces the "cool retro movie star who lives in the LA hills" elements of mid-century modern.

We've sourced some really cool furniture pieces from marketplace, but I'm really struggling with paint colours for the walls.

I want to steer clear of cream coloured walls as much as possible, and I'm very willing to experiment with darker paints.

Please give me your signature mid century modern paint suggestions !
