In Melbourne Art Deco, Robin Grow, President of the Art Deco & Modernism Society, examines the rise, fall and resurgence of Art Deco in Melbourne from the 1930s to the present day. With contemporary images by David Thompson and a team of photographers, supported by archival material, Melbourne Art Deco offers an invaluable insight into history and current state of one of the city's most popular styles.
Miami is a Deco town because private homes and later hotels were given gorgeous Deco facades in the inter-war period. The joy of this building is that it was, presumably, a public facility and not privately owned. I love it.
