BBC Documentaries - Glamour's Golden Age - 1 of 3 - The Luxe Experience

Seizoen: 2009 - Aflevering: 64 / 1000 - Eerst uitgezonden: 19 oktober 2009 - Episode ID: 451649

Hermione Norris narrates a three-part series on the 1920s and 30s, which creates a portrait of a golden age so daring, so influential, so exciting that it still shapes who we are today. The first part looks at how architecture and design both created and reflected the spirit of the time. The fun and frivolity of Art Deco sat alongside the pure, functionality of modernism and helped democratise style. Streamlining followed, making sleek, sophisticated, elegant design part of ordinary people's everyday lives. At home, the radio became a beautiful object. In the urban environment a new aesthetic changed the way buildings looked, while planes, trains and automobiles started to shrink the world.
