I bought this book as a reference to create a Powerpoint presentation to lecture to a design history class. I'm glad it was inexpensive.

5.0 out of 5 stars Please paint your pipes the appropriate colors! December 5, 2002
Format:Hardcover
Bought the book at Haslam's in St. Pete in the very early 80s. The ideas here just keep popping up in later books/magazines with different justifications for inclusion. Moral: hey, use all the ideas in this source book - just don't publicly brand them "high-tech."

1.0 out of 5 stars The Cover is Better than the Contents July 31, 2012
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I couldn't really find a lot of books on Industrial Style that seemed to emphasis the ideas/DIY style I was looking for. This book came up during one of my Amazon searches so I decided to order it. A bit more expensive than I wanted, but I thought the inspiration would be worth it. A total disappointment. Contents are pokey, old-fashioned and ugly. It looks like an old collection of government space-planning projects promoting "the future of design." It might be subtitled "Industrial Style" but there's nothing stylish about this one.
