Mid-century modern (MCM) is "a style of design popular in the mid-twentieth century, characterized by clean, simple lines and lack of embellishment." The style was present throughout the world but gained most popularity in North America, Brazil and Europe from roughly 1945 to 1970. MCM style can be seen in interior design, product design, graphic design, architecture and urban development.
