The Center for Architecture Sarasota is pleased to present A Designed Life: Contemporary American Textiles, Wallpapers, and Containers & Packaging, 1951-1954. This is an historical exhibition that is based on three significant traveling exhibitions of contemporary massproduced, American-designed consumer goods that were commissioned by the U.S. Department of State in the early 1950s. The three historical exhibitions — Contemporary American Textiles designed by Florence Knoll; Contemporary American Wallpapers designed by Tom Lee, and Containers and Packaging designed by Will Burtin — were each developed as collections of industry-specific consumer goods, designed and manufactured in the spirit of American modernism. The Center for Architecture Sarasota will open the exhibition to the public on Thursday, February 7, 2019 and it will remain at the Center till April 30, 2019.
