I grew up in a MCM house, but I didn't know it at the time because it was mid-centruy. Before I bought in Hawaii I check out Palm Springs. A lot of homes there are advertized as "Mid-Century Classics". Well, I thought, I'm a mid-century classic. I guess it will never seem all that special because it was just ordinary when I grew up. The first home that I owned was a Meis Van Der Rohe apartment in Chicago. Now that was a modern "classic" as far as I was concerned. But, he used single paned glass windows and when it got real cold, as Chicago does, they frosted up on the inside. The home owners association had to forbid people from installing double glazing because they were afraid the building wouldn't support it.

Aloha,
