The Incredibles Set Design

What is this?

In the years following World War II, modern design flourished in homes and public spaces, fueled by new manufacturing techniques and a rising, optimistic middle class. The sleek, comfortable, and informal style arose defined by clean lines, organic forms, and large, open floor plans. New materials—such as molded plywood and plastics—were used for everything from home furnishings to office equipment. Midcentury modern design is revered today for its simplicity and versatility. In Pixar's The Incredibles an ordinary family with extraordinary abilities lived in a classic midcentury home surrounded by period furniture and products. Cooper Hewitt's own collection contains many designs from the mid-twentieth century, which are similar to those in the film.
