Milan 1957

Next city/design movement exhibited, now getting into brighter colours, more plastics and more practical household objects as opposed to chairs and whatnot...


Brionvega - An italian company that produces home electronics, still in their 50's esque style, another of my favorite pieces at the exhibit was the record player below...



















Angelo Mangiarotti - Another smaller design, this time a desk clock. The most interesting part of this for me was the design of the numbers on the clock, two lines increasing in size as you go around the clock. Theres some awesome other designs in the link above as well.














Bruno Munari - This ashtray was pretty slick, loved the texture as well, brushed steel look. Really simple design but works well...
