Twelfth Triennale of Milan – Belgian Section

Official catalogue of Belgian participation in the XII Milan Triennale of 1960, dedicated to the theme 'The House and the School'. The cover features an evocative black and white photograph of the Atomium in Brussels, the symbol-monument of Expo 58 and Belgian modernism. Inside, documentation of participating Belgian companies and institutions: from the Cristalleries du Val St-Lambert to Germay-Delbecque linen textiles, from prototypes of toys from the École Nationale Supérieure d'Architecture to school furniture by Mobilier Universel. Printed in Ghent by Snoeck-Ducaju and Sons. Copy in generally good condition with slight crease to cover. Significant document for the history of Belgian industrial design and Italian-Belgian cultural relations in the postwar period.
