Space Age design is the optimistic style of the 1960s and early 1970s, shaped by the race to the moon and by new materials such as moulded plastics, polyurethane foam, chrome and acrylic. Its forms are round, soft and futuristic: sculptural seats, globe and mushroom lamps, glossy surfaces and saturated colours.

This page gathers pieces from that era and designs that continue its spirit. Gufram contributes pop seating such as the Bocca sofa by Studio 65, Louis Poulsen the Panthella lamps by Verner Panton, and Richard Lampert the Z.Stuhl, shaped by Ernst Moeckl in 1971 from a single curve of rigid polyurethane foam. HKLIVING adds retro-inspired homeware.
