Podcast Episode No.9: How to Pick a Mailbox for Your Mid Century Modern Home
If there's anything that will make your Mid Century Modern home looked finished, it's a mailbox. Yes, a mailbox. It has the impact that an incredible front door has.

It even hints that you'll be sticking around town for a long while because who puts that kind of thought into a box for mail? Certainly not a renter.
Listen to Rob Baker, founder of Modern Mailbox, share how he came to start his company and how his 1953 home in Boise, Idaho got the prototype.
