Resumen del libro

A chronological portfolio of the 333 best designs that became available to homes across the globe thanks to the advent of mass production
Demonstrates how by the middle of the 20th century production had increased worldwide and manufacturers became conscious of the concept of good design for all
Charles and Ray Eames, Jean Prouvé, Arne Jacobsen and Alvar Aalto were commissioned to design furniture and appliances for the booming middle classes
From Lego bricks and the Frisbee to door handles and sewing machines, chairs, tables, scooters and aeroplanes, these classics have a timeless quality and have barely changed since their invention
Each object is accompanied by a detailed text with precise information about each product, each designer, each manufacturer and their history
Over 1,000 illustrations fully document each product
