American Look is a film produced by Chevrolet Motors in 1958 as a look into the industrial design of the decade. It’s a surprisingly expansive film that covers far more than just automotive design, the glimpse it offers into the design and style of the 1950s is amongst the best I’ve seen.
Those of you with even a passing interest in industrial design will quickly find yourself immersed in the film, and if you’re anything like me you’ll be disappointed when it ends.
