Within the mid-century modern architectural style is the popular MCM 2-story. This style emphasized creating structures with ample windows and open floor plans, with the intention of opening up interior spaces and bringing the outdoors in. Many Mid-century houses utilized then ground-breaking post and beam architectural design that eliminated bulky support walls in favor of walls seemingly made of glass. Instead of arranging rooms on a single level, the 2-story reorganized space according to use. Inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright’s low profile, horizontal Prairie homes and no-frill Usonian houses, the style divides public and private spaces through the casual, open layout as its biggest perk. The clean lines, geometric sectioning and large rectangular windows gives this style mid-century modern charm. The style retains low pitched hip roofs, exposed rafters, overhanging eaves and horizontal lines recalling the Prairie style of previous decades.
