London Art Deco presents a stunning visual catalogue of London's Art Deco legacy from the florid 1920s to the streamlined 1930s. In over 200 colour images, and featuring cinemas, theatres, hotels, department stores, Underground stations, factories, corporate and residential buildings, this title shows the way the style influenced architects and designers working on every scale, from entire buildings to the finest decorative detail. Remarkably, many of the country's Art Deco buildings still survive-their once grime-covered facades now clean, beautifully captured by the camera of Arnold Schwartzman.
