It often featured wood like oak, pine, and maple. Early American styles focused on practicality and were influenced by the availability of local materials. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the Arts and Crafts movement gained prominence in North America. This movement emphasized craftsmanship, natural materials, and simple designs. Furniture from this era often featured handcrafted details and a connection to nature. The mid-20th century saw the rise of the Mid-Century Modern movement, characterized by sleek lines, organic shapes, and a focus on function. Designers like Charles and Ray Eames, Eero Saarinen, and George Nelson played a significant role in shaping this style. In more rural areas, rustic and country styles of furniture have been popular. These styles often incorporate natural materials like wood and emphasize a cozy and casual atmosphere.
