Googie Architecture: From Diners to Donuts

In this episode, photographer Ashok Sinha takes on an armchair road trip to see some of the most iconic drive-in eateries around Los Angeles as seen in his bestselling book, Gas and Glamour. These shining examples of Googie Architecture were designed as physical advertisements to lure in the growing Southern California car culture. With their retro-futuristic designs, inviting interiors, and colorful neon signage, these fantastical structures were beacons to those driving around the neighborhood.

"It is easy to get lost in nostalgia, and even escapism, looking at Sinha’s photograph" — Musée Magazine.
