So few appreciate, or even notice, exceptional design . . . and even less so in familiar objects. Nice video!

Yes, it's really great that there are people who collect those fantastic pieces.

Yes, I think the “tomorrow” is never what one expects it to be, but it’s fascinating what an optimistic vision of the future they had in those times.

Fabulous exposition of golden age in design, thanks for sharing with us.

I don't know if you've played Fallout 3 or Bioshock but those 2 games have a heavy inspiration from the designs of this time period. Very cool to see the real world items though.

@TheCrocodilator that's interesting, didn't know that.

This is really nice. I'm wondering if anyone could tell me about that chair at 5:18? Like make/model or designer? Thanks

The designer is Marc Newson.

Buddy, when they made something in the 30's and 40's, they made it to last, I bet 90% of all that stuff in the video still works today. Everything now days are made out of plastic and cheap (Soft) screws. It's truly a shame, todays manufacturers should be ashamed of what they're making.

Nice video. But, sadly, the "Tomorrow" isn't like this at all.
