Summary:
"Streamlined: A Metaphor for Progress" discusses the scientific, cultural, and historical development of this remarkable design style. Portraits of such designers as William B. Stout and Norman Bel Geddes, among others; an essay on streamlining at the world's fairs in Chicago 1933-34 and New York 1939-40; and source texts such as Paul Jardy's "Teardrops, Aerodynamics, and Motorcars" (1924) are just a few of the many topics covered. The book presents over 600 photographs, illustrating the degree to which streamlining has come to personify progress. The photographs also testify to the enormity of the aesthetic ripple effect that streamlining has caused -- readers will be amazed to see the variety of objects that have been "streamlined" over the years.
