The Art Deco House - Avant-Garde Houses of the 1920s and 1930s

About the Item

Published by Octopus Publishing Group first edition 2002 London. Hardback. An essential reference work for those who appreciate Art Deco. Beautifully illustrated in black and white and colour photographs. Setting the groundwork for how the Art Deco style has influenced the traditional conception of home as a warm and intimate space, this volume introduces how the brave new world of the 1920s and 30s has injected a cool, futuristic vision into the home space. It covers an incredibly wide range of Art Deco examples, such as Miami Beach, Maison de Verre, and Eltham Palace, among other lesser-known anecdotes such as the 1925 wonder of the Eiffel Tower being turned into a beacon of Art Deco. It also features an illuminating story of how the Art Deco studio Ensembliers established itself. Dimensions: 24 x 29 x 2cm Condition: Very Good +
