New York Deco profiles the architecture of the city from its most stylish and dazzling decades: the 20s and 30s. During this period landmarks were born – the Chrysler Building, the Empire State Building, the Rockerfeller Centre, the Carlyle Hotel – as well as dozens of lesser-known buildings, that together make the skyline of the Big Apple what it is today.
Offering inspirational design on each page, New York Deco is the ultimate style guide to true American Art Deco. With interesting quotes and information accompanying each image, the book is a delight for enthusiasts as well as newcomers to the style.
