Here we go again....


The 1950's are making a comeback! So, dust off your old Rummer house dreams, and get out some of that pastel blue. Here we go again. (Blue and white kitchen: $30 dollar makeover from Sunset).

Core77 covered kitchens of the past vs. kitchens of the future in a three video comparison.... it was hard to tell the difference!

The fifties style has been adopted by smaller sub-groups of the DIY movement (try getting through one page of Etsy without seeing one of those coupled cherry prints), and by empowered women's groups, like roller-derbyists (tight-laced lawyers by day and rolling hell on wheels by night).... both are groups that mingle with the indie rockers that are friends with the starving artists who used to go to college with a designer that's currently working for some giant corporation, who has this idea he hands to his boss- who likes it.... and happens to play roller derby.
maybe that's where all this is coming from.
