Today’s “Kitchen of Tomorrow”

April 12, 2008

Although this video does not feature the Frigidaire Flair specifically, it does focus on the Frigidaire Dream Kitchen of tomorrow. Also, Paul Lukas wrote a piece entitled Today’s “Kitchen of Tomorrow” on Fast Company website that focuses on the visionary corporate marketing films in the Fifties and Sixties and compares them to current research for the Kitchen of the Future at places like MIT. He points out that fifty years after these videos were produced it is clear that the “kitchen of tomorrow may be more about preserving the domestic values of yesterday.”

I hunted down a few Bewitched YouTube videos where the Frigidaire Flair makes an appearance. The oven is in the first minute of this clip that seems to be a strange promo for the show.
