Resumen

GENTIL-HOMEM, Pedro. “Coffee, Tea or Me?: A critique contribute to a specific type of “aerial” object. Revista Convergências [online]. 2022, vol.15, n.30, pp.77-88.  Epub 30-Nov-2022. ISSN 2184-0180.  https://doi.org/10.53681/c1514225187514391s.30.126.

Very specific areas of design engage all efforts to give an everyday life environment to the artificial ambience on board an airplane. The choreographed reception (and farewell) by the crew at the cabin door, or the ambience that surround us during flight are examples of that humanization applied to a culturally artificial and aseptic space. The meal is one of those instances that, besides satisfying the need for food, accomplish simultaneously a comforting moment and a disciplinary function. The service choreography and the objects that surround its stages are covered with unique technical, functional and symbolic values that differentiate them from regular meals at ground level. We paid a visit to the on-board environment of Portuguese airplanes during the 20th century, from the incipient 40’s and 50’s until a more open post 1974 revolution attitude and mature design discourse during the 80´s.

Palabras clave : Design History; Design Criticism; Design Culture; Design; Aviation.
