Design: Mid-Century Modern

2026

Jenna is the author of Design: Mid-Century Modern, a richly illustrated guide to one of the most enduring design movements in history.

The book traces the full development of the mid-century modern style, from its early roots in the 20th century to its peak period and later years. It features dozens of iconic examples across a range of fields, from architecture and interior design to furniture, products, and graphics. Both informative and fun to read, the book appeals to a wide variety of readers, from MCM buffs to design newcomers.

The book was published by Hardie Grant North America, joining its expansive portfolio of beautifully produced lifestyle titles, cookbooks, and children’s books. The producer was Elwin Street Productions. Special thanks to writer Amy van den Berg for her contributions, and to Nic & Lou for the vibrant cover art.
