    The account Concepttalk has 370K followers on Instagram and despite its short description, the link provided to the website of a curator leads us to one possible clue to a certain theme, which could be applied at least to some part of the pictures from Concepttalk. While the former is meant for “retro lovers”, the latter has a lot to do with it as well.

    According to the study Retro - The Culture of Revival, by Elizabeth E. Guffey, retro is a movement which beginning gets associated with the rehabilitation of works by Beardsley, and the movement of Art Nouveau in general. Even though revivals or enhanced interest in a specific historic period did happen in the past, according to the author, this movement was different.

    Based on interpretation by Guffey, the revival of art and design of the late nineteenth century suggests a unique tendency - a “popular thirst for the recovery of earlier, and yet still modern.”

    The author suggests that the most potent connotation of 'retro' that tends to be overlooked is its fundamental shift in the popular relationship with the past. When it comes to its object, it focuses on the recent past, rather than the Middle Ages or Antiquity.

    When it comes to its attitude or the way of looking at this recent past, the author describes it as half-ironic, half-longing, detached, and “attempting to come to terms with Modernity’s ideas, as well as its boundaries and even its mortality.”

    However, Guffey warns against dismissing the appeal of these tendencies as simply looking backwards or merely a series of stylistic gestures and suggests that it is better understood as a kind of subversion of “looking backwards in order to go forwards.”

    There's a flying saucer house going up the front of Signal Mountain in Chattanooga, TN. It used to be really cool when I went to high school around that area (a little more than 20 years ago). My husband and I took a day-trip there a couple months ago and unfortunately the house hasn't been taken care of very well over the years. It wasn't a new house when I was in high school, but it's sad that such a neat place was kind of let go. It's actually built up on "stilts", like 4 poles maybe 15 feet high, and the only way in or out is by lowering a staircase down from the bottom of the house. I always wanted to go see the inside when I was a teen in the 90's!

    While playfulness and the lighthearted wit of the pictures also bring Postmodernism and a fun rewording of “Less is more” to “Less is bore” by Robert Venturi to mind.

    The movement from 1970 to 1990, was known for shattering established ideas about design and art and its style associated with a mix of various seemingly opposing elements that make it “visually thrilling, multifaceted" and defying definition.

    According to the study by V&A, such irreverence, which is meant to criticize purely functional design or simply to cheer up the viewers with some lighthearted wit, is among the movement’s main characteristics.

    Many designers of the things from the pictures shared by Concepttalk seem to have figured out one recipe for escaping the routine of a purely functional take on things and processes to use them for a different purpose than they were created for or expected to be used by many.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Also, they add elements that have no function at all except for exaggerating and embodying the remote associations with certain daily objects in a dream-like or somewhat fun way, possibly surprising the creators themselves as their perception gets caught up in this sort of play.

    The first house my husband and I looked at purchasing was an older house and the master bathroom was huge. The tub was set down into the floor like what this is. I do imbibe on occasion and as cool as the tub looked, I probably would have broken my neck or some other body part at least bu falling into it if we purchased that home 😄😅

    I think it is because those rugs were probably beautiful once upon a time, and now it feels like they stretch off into paths no longer taken. I find it hauntingly enchanting, and I want to incorporate it into dnd somehow. Either a relatively unknown civilization or fae probably

    I believe this is part of the Silk Road if I'm not mistaken. Anyone know for sure? OK I did my research and there are real rugs on portions of the Silk Road .... The Silk Road is famous for its traditional rugs that were made by skilled artisans along the route. These rugs are known for their intricate designs and high quality materials.

    Well, a 2020s idea of what a “space age” 1970s bedroom looked like, made by someone who wasn’t alive in the seventies. The movies aren’t necessarily a good gauge for the decor of any given era. Most people don’t toss everything and redecorate every year. They buy furniture, or find it, or inherit it, or are given pieces of it as wedding or housewarming gifts from very generous relatives, and integrate it, eclectically, into their home decor. I was a teenager during the seventies, and can tell you from personal experience they did NOT look like this. Even the most “out there” people didn’t have rooms like this. And the people who had the funky rooms that would inspire new decor trends usually combed secondhand stores to find it, because they were broke, then put it together with other stuff they found, and brightened all the colors (early seventies) to fit their personality, which is what funkified it, if they were funky people. Later seventies gave us the stultifyingly dull “earth tones” of beige and brown that for some reason keep rising from their grave periodically to this day.

    This is my experience as well. Look through magazines of the era to see how things really looked, Good Housekeeping, etc but look at Art/Architecture periodicals to see where "Mad Men" (et al) get their set design ideas.
