UNSPOILED BY PROGRESS
“An intelligent person fights for lost causes, realizing that others are merely effects”
― E.E. Cummings, as quoted by Dr. Johnny Fever, WKRP in Cincinnati
“Art deco is just about the last architectural style in which humanistic design and fine craftsmanship were valuable considerations. After that came the glass and steel box. Originally it was considered an art form, but it caught on mainly because it was cheap to hang curtains of glass and have load-bearing walls. The machine was a metaphor for these constructions. The machine was in, people were out. Space became more important than the place. Singularity of design replaced variety, which of course is the very essence of life.”
