1964-1965 New York World's Fair - a new era of imagination in the kitchen

 More than 25 kitchens are displayed at the Fair. All use modern appliances, but the motifs and accessories vary widely. Some are placed in a Mediterranean setting, others in an Oriental decor. One, in the Better Living Center, has a wall hung with paintings; another has moved the charcoal grill indoors. All bring imagination into the most functional room of the house. 

HEARTH IN THE KITCHEN 
Skylights and a charcoal-burning barbecue pit set apart this kitchen in Formica's "World's Fair House." The combination of glazed brick and Formica is natural to this room, which is both colonial and modern. 



OLD STYLE NEW EASE 
Built-in appliances plus natural brick and simple design in the Gallery of Kitchens unit combine grandmotherly warmth with modern ease of operation. 


IDEAS FROM THE ORIENT 
Japanese lanterns, driftwood countertop supports, teakwood panels and Far Eastern designs are all found in the Frigidaire "Oriental" Kitchen.
