If there is one thing we know for sure, it’s that midcentury modern décor is here to stay. It certainly has earned its spot in the interior design world, and rightfully so. We also consider ourselves suckers for this retro, yet modern style—and what better way to round out your midcentury modern space than with a little artwork? We’ve rounded up 10 prints that perfectly fit the time period but still feel current and fresh at the same time, and we’re sharing them all below. So if midcentury modern is your vibe, then take a peek at these 10 prints and don’t hesitate to add a few to your walls…

1. Valet II

This little giraffe character was one of the first on our list and for good reason—Gray’s series shot at the Parker Palm Springs is a midcentury modern paradise. This geometric-inspired exterior paired with a retro bell hop cart and a bright orange door is the perfect combination to accent any midcentury modern space.

2. Aprés Swim Horizontal

If you prefer photography with human subjects, then you can’t go wrong with this extremely chic duo. This print has just the right dose of attitude to complement the funky style of midcentury modern décor, with the prettiest pastel color palette that feels like a dreamy vintage piece.

3. Balloon Cloud

Many midcentury modern lovers lean more minimalist, and if that’s you, then this balloon cloud print is going to be your jam. You can’t get more minimalist that white balloons floating over a vast salt flat. (Plus, this barely-there image will go perfectly with the clean lines of your midcentury modern furniture.)

4. The Study

If you want to get more literal with your interpretation of midcentury modern prints, then you’ll quickly fall for Gray’s private collection Art of Living. This series quite literally juxtaposes iconic midcentury furniture pieces with a jaw-dropping natural landscape, creating a series we keep coming back to time and time again.

5. Housekeeping

Umm… that midcentury patterned carpet?! We think this one speaks for itself. (And we can’t help but love the idea of a camel roaming the halls of the Parker.)

6. Sunbathing Beauties

Calling all fashion lovers… We love the way this print from the Coral Casino evokes that glamorous resort lifestyle from way back when, and it easily adds a dose of retro style to any space.

7. Cacti

If you love to lean more eclectic with your midcentury modern décor, then this cacti print will bring the perfect dose of desert chic to your space.

8. Happy Hour

Another print from Gray Malin at the Parker, these two raccoons “sipping” on drinks at Happy Hour is just too much for our hearts to handle. Not to mention, they’re surrounded by the chicest midcentury décor.

9. The Loungers, Italy

Beach aerial prints may not be the first theme that comes to mind when you think of midcentury modern prints, but we think the simple, neutral color palette in this one paired with the clean lines of these white loungers makes it the perfect candidate for a midcentury modern space.

10. Mirror I

Last, but not least, we turned to the cleanest lines we could find! We love the interest this mirror in the middle of nowhere adds to a space, and the simplicity of it will blend seamlessly with any midcentury modern décor you already own.
