DECORATIVE ART 50s

Decorative Art 50s explores a decade of postwar reconstruction, driven by an idealistic vision and a positive spirit, both in the suburbs and urban centers, from furniture to metallurgy.

This volume takes us into a world of latex, plastics, and fervent consumerism, materials that literally shaped America in the 1950s.

Decorative Art 50s, The Studio Yearbook is the first in a trilogy of volumes that follows the evolution of materials and styles after the sociocultural boom of the mid-20th century.

Texts in English, German and French.
