Description
A cool and consumer-driven showcase of everyday interior design of the 1950s, '60s, '70s and '80s. From toasted sandwich makers to mass-produced polypropylene or tubular steel chairs, from porch swings to cocktail shakers, "Mass Market Classics" delves into the various living areas of the suburban home (and the catalogues from where the items were ordered) to find the best of popular design. It combines hip graphic treatments with a level of ironic kitschness that reflects the products featured. Pop-cultural design aficionado Wayne Hemmingway adds a commentary as a collector and champion of mass-produced interior design.
