Mid Century Home Style




Photo from Mid Century Home Style

Today I'm featuring a website that I have literally spent an unknown number of hours on.  Mid Century Home Style features house plans from the early 1940s through the early 1960s.  Lots of fun to start with the earliest catalogs and work your way through the plans from the early 1960s and see how the designs evolved.  Be warned though, once you go to this website, you won't be able to leave your computer until you have looked at all of the different houses.  You might want to go pack a meal to eat in front of your computer before you get started!  You can see all of these great mid-century plans at Mid Century Home Style.

Looking for something older than the great mid-century plans?  You can view plans from 1908-1940 at their other site, Antique Home Style.  I don't recommend going to both sites in one day - you won't be able to get anything else accomplished!

  1. Wow, The same house on the cover is very prevalent in my neighborhood. Thanks for sharing the site, I've been looking for something similar for quite a while.

  2. Excellent sites -- I noticed the first one right away when I started my blog! Definitely labors of love. Very very cool!
