Description: | The Times Furnishing Company was a major national furniture retailer throughout the first half of the twentieth century. This brochure for the 'Californian' kitchen positively gleams with bright colours, new materials and the promise of the easy and desirable American lifestyle, though the workshop was in Walthamstow.
Wrighton employed a consultant designer Nigel Walters to design the range of interchangeable units, billed as: 'scientifically planned and built to please.' This would not have been a cheap kitchen by any means. The units were high gloss and available in a variety of colours, and edged in natural beech. Drawers were lined with mahogany and cupboards in white enamel. And there were five different colours of sink to choose from. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | MoDA | Rights holder: | MoDA, Museum of Domestic Design & Architecture (Middlesex University) | Subjects: | Home and Family | Temporal: | 1958 | Source: | Museum of Domestic Design and Architecture | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
