If It's Hip, It's Here: ArchiTech's Future Perfect: Mid-Century Modern Design Drawings

That crazy little RSS button under the "follow my site" title is one of the best inventions ever created. Why? Because I'm a sucker and can't say no. I mean...I find one cool post, and then, for the rest of my days, I'm getting every lame post posted by every blogger that I couldn't refuse to follow. Then, there are the times that, for some unknown reason, I don't push it and it takes me for ever to find their site again.

What does this have to do with architecture you may ask. Not much, really. However, it is somewhat related. See, I find and follow (willingly or not) a lot of blogs on architecture. While architecture is something I REALLY enjoy, I find that architectural renderings are just as cool if not cooler than the real building created. So, from time to time, I go looking around for Mid-Century/Atomic Age architectural renderings. On one of these occasions, I found this site:  If It's Hip, It's Here: ArchiTech's Future Perfect: Mid-Century Modern Design Drawings. 

If It's Hip, It's Here, has a post on a really cool gallery called Architech Gallery. Here you will find a super rare illustrations of different MCM homes, buildings, furniture, and technical designs. I really found the post nice and the the online gallery as well. They are both definately worth a look at.

Be careful though, because on at least one of these sites, you'll have to choose whether you want to fight off the RSS button temptation, or sub come to its powers. Really though, that's for you to decide.

OOh love it! As an architecture student and lover of everything vintage, this hit a particular cord! I gotta say I don't think I'll be able to fight off the button...
