@cdeville You must be joking! It was the decade of iconic design & designers. Panton, Eames, Colombo, Saarinen etc. New materials became available & made the 60s the most progressive & exciting era on record. The ball chair, egg chair, Guzzini lamps, Ericofon one piece phones etc. It was space age design & far more progresssive than anything today. I admit, this video is a poor representation of the era but you really need to research the 60s before you call it ugly.
@cdeville And then throw in the music The Beatles, The Who, Hendrix, Italian jazz funk fusion, psychedelia etc It was an astonishing decade. In my opinion it was far better than today which just relies on computerised gadgets, reproduction styling & absolutely woeful music.
They do something like this today. They sell factory made panels, appliance resurfacing, and appliance film that comes in everything from wood grain to stainless, to copper finishes. Google it!
wow.. this is very convenient

This video makes me glad I didn't live through the 1960s... but am I weird for kind of liking Astro-Glo Bronze at 2:03? :)

Wow... what an ugly time period for design. The color, the texture, the awful basement darkness to everything.
Actually from 1960 through 1990 could really be considered a throw out period for design.

Whenever I smell contact paper I'm transported back to the 60's.

I want a zebra fridge!!! This ad epitomizes the sixties-very cool find! And @VegeBrain, I agree-they probably came with windowpane.

This is my new favourite video! "Rhythm n' Beat" by Johnny Hawksworth @ 2:43 (from The Mood Modern - 1966). :-)

Do all these coverings & panels come with LSD so you can REALLY appreciate the patterns?
