Kuba retro design rocks








I found this great site for a defunct German TV company. Talk about amazing retro design! I really love retro design and I think it's interesting how design that seems "dated" can eventually become "hip" again. The site also got me thinking about a design "factory". Notice the advertisements featuring pictures of the Kuba factory. A large building filled with people creating ideas and turning the ideas into physical products is appealing. In today's world where everything is digital I have a romanticised (and totally unrealistic) longing for the days when people sketched on tracing paper and built things by hand. Early in my design career, my first year working in an ad agency, we didn't have computers yet and I had to layout every thing by hand, and that was a bitch. In any event check out the pics from the Kuba museum, very interesting.
