American Art Deco

The Art Deco style featured colors that harmonized with the tropical landscape of the Southern and far Western states. While this building may look like Miami, the location is actually in India. A modern concrete structure has been transformed from a bland gray into Tropical Deco employing the colors favored in the 1930s.

The knowledge of proper historical colors and their placement were key to the remarkable transformation.
