Mid Century Store is a hybrid furniture reseller and manufacturer located in the Hillcrest neighborhood of San Diego, California, specializing in authentic 1950s to 1970s design. Operating from the same Park Boulevard location for over 40 years, the business is currently directed by Blake Macaluso and Dan Reeves. The duo purchased the shop in 2014 from founding owner Jeff Spence.
The showroom focuses strictly on American mid-century and Danish modern aesthetics. Their inventory features a rotating selection of restored vintage credenzas, original Bauhaus seating, and art from the pop-vintage era. Buying vintage inherently shrinks a consumer's environmental footprint. By rescuing and restoring these older pieces, the store keeps quality domestic goods in circulation.
Alongside their curated vintage finds, the retailer produces an in-house furniture collection called Casara Modern. These made-to-order pieces are handcrafted in Huntington Beach, California. The line utilizes solid alder wood frames and commercial-grade upholstery, with signature items like the Daniel Sofa and Classic Daybed anchoring the catalog.
