As the stylists surround our lives with functional forms of beauty, so they surround themselves in an atmosphere of esthetic challenge. For the studio of design is an inspiration in itself, where men and women representing a variety of talents, join their efforts and materialize their dreams. To give us a better understanding of the basic elements which go to make up the american look, let us look at an example of how styles and designs are created and developed. Working in an artistic atmosphere, men and women of taste and imagination come together to take on the task of creating a design which will express the american look. To every stylist, engineer, draftsman and clay modeler, as well as the specialists on color, fabrics and metals, the creation of a new design is a complex process and a tremendous challenge worthy of their most exhaustive effort. And because the newest designs must be kept confidential until just the right moment, the stylists work in rooms that are constantly locked. And here the dream begins, as the basic concepts of the design problem are defined and outlined. In the broadest terms, the objectives are stated and clarified, appraised and evaluated, and thus a design theme, an imaginative but practical goal is established and agreed upon. Now there is only the stylists creativity, his courage to dream, his knowledge and his experience, to bring forth a beginning, a starting point, a place of departure. And from such dreamwork of individual stylists, there emerge finally a number of concepts, which although vary greatly in specific treatment, still conform to the established limits of the overall design theme. Now the choice narrows down to one or two concepts, which combine the best styling features from all of the other efforts. With the basic concept established, the design must now undergo an intensive period of improvement. Refinement, changes, and revisions. Emerging at last as the culmination of ideas developed in many minds through many months. The stylists convert the smaller sketches into fullsize renderings and line drawings, which once again develop and refine the design theme. New dimensions now are added to line to translate the stylist concept from drawings to fullbodied forms. To model the detailing for the finish design, a pliable material is needed. And the form is sculptured into a faithful bodily expression of the fullsized lined drawing. Contours are established and held true to the exacting of templates, which automatically transform the contention for comforting surfaces. At the same time the individual art form of decorations are sculptured in clay for a continuing development of the threedimensional theme. Now, the dreams are presented for approval. Only a short step behind the exterior concept is the design theme of the interior and its concepts of compliment in color. Textures must harmonize with colors and fabrics must be durable, as well as artistically compatible with the overall interior theme. Each design concept, exterior as well as interior, is now translated from clay to plaster, from plaster to fiberglass. Thus, the ideas, the concepts and the dreams of the stylists come to life in the form of fullscale components modelled in fiberglass. To give us the blend of functional beauty, now comes the final transformation into metal, glass, fibers and fabrics. Modern technology has supplied the american stylist with new materials of intriguing lightness and great strength. The distinguishing marks of the new american look are in art forms, in colors, and in the expressive changes of surface which bring out the new textures and the interplay of materials. Designs in straight, delicate lines, designs in graceful curves, designs of strength without bulk, beauty of function, as well as beauty of form. Indoors or outdoors, wherever we go or wherever we stay, now and in the future, we can always depend on the stylists to beautify everything we need, from the eye appeal and swift effectiveness of the smallest utensils in the kitchen of the future, to the serene structures, the stylist is ever designing changes to improve our life of the future.
