TOPHAM Sean, Where's My Space Age? The rise and fall of futuristic design, Munich, Prestel, 2003
This book examines how the space conquest of the '60s and the dream of a space-age future invaded every aspect of design and everyday life, from fashion and furniture to architecture, from toys and comics to sweet wrapers, to disappear as suddenly as it has aroused. It considers how it is revisited by contemporary designers and artists.
This book is richly illustrated and includes examples both from high and popular cultures, from the United States and the former Soviet Union, as well as from Europe and Japan.
