1924, designed by Rietveld.

 

Though I think a lot of the design dating is related to the inventions and necessities of the period.

Cars especially are quite easy to date, but a lot of their styling is/was to fold around/accommodate the new technologies of the time.

I think car design leads a lot of other popular movements (in design) as so much is spent on them and their marketing.

 

Houses on the other hand have known almost no novelties that require a change in design for the past few centuries, so their development is slow and any change from "the norm" seen as radical.
