It says "surpringly decorated in dark wood". But if the booths were original 1930s Deco, it would not have been surprising at all. In fact the dark wood looks very handsome.
Agree entirely Hels but that there was a deco interior at all was a bit surprising compared with the exterior, so perhaps that is what they are alluding to.
MELBOURNE ART DECO
In 2009 Robin Grow published a book on Melbourne Art Deco, with images largely supplied by David Thompson. The book quickly sold out and he is pleased to say that it has now been re-published by Brolga Press, with updates, errors corrected and a new cover.
Best of all, it is selling for about $25 in the shops and on-line. Art Deco & Modernism Society members can purchase a copy from me for $22, (includes postage within Australia). For overseas orders please email for postage rates. Contact me at robingrow@ozemail.com.au if you are interested, and advise if you would like the book to be dedicated and/or signed.

DeleteThe booths and wall look a bit nautical, I think.
ReplyDeleteOh yes. 'Porthole' mirrors will do that every time.
