Trends are a curious thing, so when I ran across this set of images from the book Good Decorating and Home Improvement, I couldn't help but laugh. We're in a phase again where all things Mid-Century are cool (no complaints here), but it's clear that wasn't the case when this book was published!

Quite the after, eh? Nothing a little lucite and glass can't handle! Do you think the 70s aesthetic will re-emerge as a design trend anytime soon (or with as much force as the current 50s trend)? Share your thoughts!
