What makes great design timeless?
From the sculptural forms of mid-century modern furniture to the character of vintage art and objects, thoughtful design continues to shape how we live, express ourselves, and experience the spaces around us.
MODA members are invited to step inside City Issue, an Atlanta destination for vintage mid-century modern furnishings, art, and home decor. During this special December Members Meetup, members will explore the enduring influence of mid-century modern design and discover how vintage pieces bring character, craftsmanship, and individuality to contemporary interiors.
Through a closer look at City Issue’s curated collection, members will gain insight into the art of vintage sourcing, the details that make a piece distinctive, and the ways furniture and objects can transform a space. Join fellow MODA members for an inspiring afternoon celebrating design history, timeless style, and the beauty of giving great design a second life.
