The mid-century modern period is also called ‘the atomic age’. Space adventures and technology innovations inspired many well-known designers to create pieces -as the George Nelson Atomic Ball Clock– to celebrate the incredible achievements of the period.
Many of those pieces became icons of mid-century modern design that we still celebrate today.
