Detroit style: Mid-century modern and industrial loft
Metro Detroit has a deep mid-century modern inheritance, from Cranbrook to the region's 1950s ranches, plus converted downtown lofts that go industrial. Local designers lean on both rather than on coastal or Mediterranean references.
Work by Detroit designers first, then the styles Detroit draws from.
