So I'm looking up 2 D Graphics and I run across the term "DECO". First time i ever heard it. Can anyone help me out here?
Yes, I forgot that one!! Gorgeous building btw!!Don't forget the Chrysler building!
Didn't that hotel feature in an episode of Poirot?Another Art Deco building on a smaller scale. The Midland Hotel here in Morecambe. Designed by Oliver Hill in Streamline Moderne style with sculptures and murals by Eric Gill (which are well worth looking up online). The Art Deco style, although now mostly known by the remaining buildings embraced everything from clothing, painting (including poster art), jewelry, architecture and furniture design.

I love Art Deco. There's an old Odeon cinema (now closed) which is Art Deco. It's being converted into offices and flats, so at least it's not being knocked down.
