For anyone about to do up their house I really think you consider going retro. Retro style living is back in a huge way. So if you would like to take my advice here is the perfect thing to start of with. The Smeg 50’s Style Fridge, yes that right a fridge. These Fridges are pieces of Retro art in their own way. They come in various colours including some very slick pastel colours. But my favourite are the two shown below. For more info visit the Smeg website. [link via Retro to go].
Next up is something a bit different which I stumbled across. This is in fact an actual retro fridge door from the 50’s that has been customised with some great retro style art. The art piece called victim is created by Aaron Kraten who has plenty more stunning art work.

1They are beautiful (the new retro looking ones), but the 50s based work of art is bloody fantastic!
A great find.

2[…] Forget retro posters when you can get these retro signs instead. These classic advertisements are available as tin signs, metal signs and porcelain signs. With a huge range varying from 50’s food and drink signs to Motor oil signs there is something for everyone. My favourites are the bottle cap signs such as the Pepsi cap sign above. These signs are really cool retro art pieces that will go perfect with your retro fridge. Oh and they priced pretty reasonably as well with prices starting from around $7.99. Pop over to the 50s Retro Signs website and while your there have a look at the retro clocks and thermometers as well. […]

3[…] You may remember the very cool Smeg Fridges I featured a while back. Well Smeg have now released some matching retro style washing machines and dishwashers. With so many retro style appliances, gadgets and furniture coming out these day it would be great to see a modern house designed completely retro style. They come in lots of great bright, pastel or simple colours. I love the rust orange colour dishwasher below, but I do not think any one else in my family would be happy with that in my kitchen.
