Beautiful, idea-filled room interiors seen in American popular
magazines of the 1960s are reproduced here in over 200 color
photographs with detailed identification. Readers adapted these
designs from Armstrong Cork Company's advertising pages for their
own homes. It was customary for Armstrong designers to create rooms
that were chock-full of new ideas, as they had been doing for
decades. But during the 1960s, the interiors underwent subtle
changes in colors and materials which today are recognized as
characteristic of this decade. Now these rooms reflected the
changing culture in America where homes were enlarged to
accommodate growing families and rooms were decorated with an
emphasis on being beautiful. At Armstrong, new types of flooring
were developed which made vinyl superior to linoleum because of its
improved wear characteristics and easier installation. Ceiling
materials also were developed to contribute to new room interiors
that provided solutions to cultural changes of the 1960s, and from
which people today can draw useful ideas.
