Space Age Design
When Sputnik launched in 1957, design changed fast. Cars grew rocket like tail fins, airports took on the look of spaceships, and furniture seemed to anticipate the future. This book traces that wave with over 200 iconic and rare archive images, from the work of Eero Saarinen, Pierre Paulin, and Verner Panton to NASA photographs, capturing a moment of intense optimism and creative energy.
