Sure, the beds, couches, and dining tables are the stars of their respective rooms, but don't neglect your smaller pieces of furniture. Real design pros put thought into every single detail, down to nightstands like the Belham Living Carter 1 Drawer Nightstand. The mid-mod design inspiration is clear from the piece's tapered legs and rounded edges. A rich walnut finish completes the look. Pair with the Carter Collection's living room and kitchen furniture to create a home steeped in cohesive mid-century modern style.
