Here’s a fun game I came up with as an introduction to the upcoming Eero Saarinen exhibition.
To play:
Guess if each image shows a) something designed by Saarinen or b) something in Disneyland’s Tomorrowland.
A little bit of introductory information:
Eero Saarinen, known as a key modernist designer and architect in the 20th century. He often collaborated with Charles Eames and famously used sweeping architectural arches and curves.
Disneyland opened in 1955 and Tomorrowland was given a total makeover in 1967. The new Tomorrowland famously used sweeping architectural arches and curves to reflect the modernist view of the future.
