1935 – Kitchens Were Modernized
In an effort to make kitchens look nicer and more modern, people started adding bolder colors like gold, red and dark blue. Another new feature at the time was chrome furniture, which actually consisted of chromium-covered metal like iron or steel to give furniture a gleaming finish. Homeowners also added pendant lights, which are lone light fixtures that hang from the ceiling by a chain, a rod or cord.
