"Atomic Age in design refers to the period roughly corresponding to 1940–1963, when concerns about nuclear war dominated Western society during the Cold War. Architecture, industrial design, commercial design (including advertising), interior design and fine arts were all influenced by the themes of atomic science, as well as the Space Age, which coincided with that period.
Atomic Age design became popular and instantly recognizable, with a use of atomic motifs and space age symbols." - Wikipedia

Initially I intended to use the fabric above to recover the pink settee & chair set, unfortunately the print was far too large. The fabric I did use, although much simpler, does still suit the era quite well.
Like I already said, I love the effect! Even without any flying saucers ;)!
