Cold War Kitchen
Author: Ruth Oldenziel
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262516136
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 429
Book Description
The kitchen as political symbol and material reality in the cold war years. Richard Nixon and Nikita Khrushchev's famous “kitchen debate” in 1958 involved more than the virtues of American appliances. Both Nixon and Khrushchev recognized the political symbolism of the modern kitchen; the kind of technological innovation represented in this everyday context spoke to the political system that produced it. The kitchen connects the “big” politics of politicians and statesmen to the “small” politics of users and interest groups. Cold War Kitchen looks at the kitchen as material object and symbol, considering the politics and the practices of one of the most famous technological icons of the twentieth century. Defining the kitchen as a complex technological artifact as important as computers, cars, and nuclear missiles, the book examines the ways in which a range of social actors in Europe shaped the kitchen as both ideological construct and material practice. These actors—from manufacturers and modernist architects to housing reformers and feminists—constructed and domesticated the technological innovations of the postwar kitchen. The home became a “mediation junction” in which women users and others felt free to advise producers from the consumer's point of view. In essays illustrated by striking period photographs, the contributors to Cold War Kitchen consider such topics as Soviet consumers' ambivalent responses to the American dream kitchen argued over by Nixon and Khrushchev; the Frankfurter Küche, a European modernist kitchen of the interwar period (and its export to Turkey when its designer fled the Nazis); and the British state-subsidized kitchen design so innovative that it was mistaken for a luxury American product. The concluding essays challenge the received wisdom of past interpretations of the kitchen debate.

Designs for the 20th Century Interiors
Author: Fiona Leslie
Publisher: Victoria & Albert Museum
ISBN:
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 152
Book Description
"The illustrations show the innovative and often cutting- edge designs produced by some of the leading designers of the day. Four key sections - Living Rooms, Kitchens and Dining Rooms, Bathrooms and Bedrooms - demonstrate a range of ideas for furnishing and decorating the domestic interior, and highlight some of the huge lifestyle changes that occurred in the home across Europe and America during the 20th century. Looking at the tension, evident throughout the century, between 'traditional' and 'new' looks, the book also examines the importance of image to 20th-century consumers of designed products." "This survey of the styles used to decorate domestic spaces of the 20th century is essential reading for anyone with an interest in interior design."--Jacket.
