Inhaltsangabe

Art Deco burst upon the world for a brief but unforgettable existence during the 1920s and 1930s. It embraced new media, such as the cinema and radio, as well as new forms of transport and the associated buildings, and above all brought a sense of luxury, fun, and escapism to the world during some of the hardest times. Art Deco Architecture: The Inter War Period examines the sources and origins of the style from before World War I. It offers an in-depth exploration of the origins, inspirations, and political backdrop behind this popular style. Lavishly illustrated with images taken especially for the book, topics covered include a worldwide examination of the spread and usage of Art Deco; short biographical essays on architects and architectural practices; an in-depth examination of French architects and their output from this period; an introduction to stunning and little-known buildings from around the world; and the importance of World Fairs and Expositions in the spread of Art Deco.
