Thanks MaryAnn--but I was hoping for "purty pictures". I've always loved Art Deco. The photo in your post is a fascinating example of Art Deco design and construction wrapping around more traditional late 19th/early 20th century construction. I'd love to spend a couple of hours just staring at it.
Someday...
Have enjoyed the art deco buildings/hotels in Miami, but hardly the same. :)

The links in the post, when opened, offer more pictures...and the one for the Villa Necchi is also worth spending a couple of hours watching.
Thanks for the read/comment.
Living in a bona fide Art Deco building presents some challenges, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. I love my sunken living room, the corner windows, the floopy bathroom! Very nice piece.
Thanks nilesite, and I am sure that any small inconveniences are more than compensated for by the beauty of the design. Enjoy!
