review:
'Art Deco Interiors' by Henry Delacroix was first published in Paris in 1935.
The full watercolor and ink color plates are architectural and interior design renderings of living spaces. They are drawn by Henry Delacroix, Jacques Meistermann, Francis Jourdain and others. The spaces shown are bedrooms, offices, living rooms. They are shown as furnished, but the stark lines and edges of the furnishings gives things an austere look.
It's the style of art deco, and there are some gorgeous rooms, but they just don't seem to be that comfortable or inviting. The things I liked best were the wall length cabinets in bedrooms and offices. I love the style, and it's great to see the designs in this book. I enjoyed spending time looking through this book.
I received a review copy of this ebook from Dover Publications and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
