The House of the Future at Olympia London

from Viewpoints – Placecloud · host Alexander Davidson

London, United Kingdom. This viewpoint focusses on a futuristic vision for plastics in architecture and interior design: Alison and Peter Smithson‘s House of the Future, which was shown at the Daily Mail Ideal Home Show at the London Olympia Exhibition Centre in 1956. The exhibition structure, containing everything from chairs made of fibreglass to bedding fashioned out of Nylon, popularised an aesthetic for the materials’ use in architectural and visual design which has lasted until the present day.

We’re not expecting our guests to agree about everything. That would be boring and unproductive!We do expect that by speaking
