[quote=Anonymous]I personally really like MCM furniture in particular, though it only accounts for some of my home furnishing - I think it's more attractive to mix furniture from a wide range of styles. I think there will always be people who like MCM, because it is so clean and simply and unfussy, and it works well in small urban apartments/condos. But it will become less popular in terms of design trends for a couple of reasons - it goes without saying trends change, and higher quality/higher end mainstream stores like Room and Board will change their offerings as trends change (you can already see it). A main source for good quality vintage MCM are vintage shops who get their stock from aging baby boomers who are downsizing. At some point, that source will be tapped out, and MCM won't be as readily available until the current buyers are ready to part with their furniture. The lower quality stuff now available at Target and similar stores will not last, of course. And I also always personally think once design trickles down to lower quality stores for the masses like Target, design trends higher up the chain have already started shifting.[/quote]
