The 1950s House, which opened in 2000, brings to life the transformative history of America during the mid-twentieth century when a vibrant consumer culture developed after World War Two. The house’s late-1940s design and decoration highlights the industrial boom of the late 1940s and early 1950s. Packed with the era’s fashionable furniture, books, toys, food, and magazines, the 1950s House provides a window into mid-century visual culture.
