The United Kingdom’s Guardian newspaper has posted a table showing the changing face of everyday design, with images for the 1950s, ’60s, ’70s, ’80s, ’90s, and our current decade.
See the changes in British Airways flight attendants, Corn Flake packets, telephones, the Queen’s hats, police cars, and book covers of George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four.
Thanks to Swiss Miss and DesignTicTacs for the head’s up!
