Originální abstrakt

A feminist designer Liane Zimbler (1892–1987) emphasized throughout her entire life the importance of a positive presence in contemporary press – not only as a reflection and promotion of her work but to educate the audience on topics like taste, economization, and rationalization of living spaces and living comfort. After she immigrated to the United States, she focused in her articles and columns on how to incorporate antiques into a modern interior and how to use strategies of recycling and upcycling in the furnishing of mid-century modernism. At the same time, Zimbler framed her activities with a feminist approach to the interior design profession and designing an autonomous space for women. In magazines like Perfect Home, House Beautiful, Home: Design for To-day, Remodeling Guide, Home Remodeling, Casual Living, L.A. Times Home, and California Living she presented an alternative to environmentally harmful, men-dominated modernism that was more socially conscious and sustainable.
