Abstract

Abstract Before Hungarian-born British architect Ernö Goldfinger became known for designing large-scale urban housing and office developments, he built a reputation designing toys, furnishings, interiors and exhibitions for and about children. Focussing on these projects, this article investigates how the architect sought to create a lasting audience for modern architecture by teaching children how to navigate the world independently. By looking at these projects, it is also possible to see how Goldfinger, and other architects, have bridged disciplinary categories by encompassing aspects of industrial, interior, urban and graphic design as part of a broad definition of architecture.
