Populexe Kitchens of the 50's Future

0cake1.jpgCourtesy of the industrious Boing Boing, waste away this Monday morning marveling at the amazing consumer advancement of the shimmering chromium 50's future with the Populexe films, showing futuristic dreams and a Kitchen of the Future.

    At Motorama, she gets quite excited by the looks of the Firebird II, calls the traffic dispatch center by radio, then, accompanied by her "prince charming", she rides onto the electronic highway of tomorrow and sings a duet linking their love to technological progress.

Man, I want to live in George Jetson's world already.
