The Man Who Designed America
If you like it, it’s probably because this guy made it that way.
Arguably the most influential industrial designer of the 20th century, French-born Raymond Loewy (1893 – 1986) fashioned or utterly re-imagined a dizzying array of products and brands during a career spanning seven decades. Writer, illustrator, and co-founder of the Web’s best blog, BoingBoing, Mark Frauenfelder has been fascinated by Loewy’s work for years. In this gallery, Mark celebrates his favorite Loewy projects, and muses on the man’s enduring appeal.
