'The Art Deco House' by Adrian Tinniswood At the beginning of the 21st century the Art Deco style enjoys a popularity unrivalled since its inception at the 1925 "Exposition International des Arts Decoratifs et Industriels Modernes in Paris", from which the style takes its name. In spite of this, the role of Art Deco in defining domestic architecture is often neglected. Across the world, many of the most exciting architects and designers of the 20th century - Norman Bel Gedds, Richard Neutra, Robert Mallet-Stevens, Berthold Lubetkin - designed houses that borrowed from the Art Deco style. "The Art Deco House" explores the stories behind the design, decoration, and furnishing of the greatest houses of the period, and investigates the important contribution that Art Deco made to the "Modern Movement" in architecture. Examples have been chosen from a broad range of houses including Art Deco icons such as Miami Beach, the Maison de Verre, and Eltham Palace, as well as a number of less famous but no less exciting buildings, all of which show the truly global impact of Art Deco. Tapping into the contemporary popularity of this design movement, "The Art Deco House" combines photography with text to create a reference work for those who appreciate Art Deco. Hardback book in very good condition with original dust jacket
