The Victoria and Albert Museum, London, is the worldâ‚¬s greatest museum of art and design, with a vast collection that been an unparalleled resource for designers for 150 years.

The Fifties
The Fifties produced some of the most inventive and innovative twentieth-century pattern designs as the emerging trend for abstraction in the fine arts--as exemplified by MirÂ³,Â Calder, and Klee, for instance--acted as a stimulus for many European and American designers.
