Industrial design

Origins

Industrial Design is a visual style characterized by a focus on functionality, efficiency, and mass production. It emerged during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, but gained prominence in the mid-20th century through the works of influential designers such as Raymond Loewy and Dieter Rams. The style became famous for its sleek lines, minimal ornamentation, and the use of industrial materials like steel, glass, and concrete. Industrial Design aimed to create practical and aesthetically appealing products for mass consumption, reflecting the advancements and aspirations of the machine age.
