Description

Steven Brooke, whose dazzling photography of Miami’s Art Deco District once helped spur the world’s preservation, now captures the implausible architectural restoration of this glamorous international playground. All through the 1930s, Miami Beach emerged as an epicenter of Art Deco architecture. Against the azure sky gleamed buildings that boasted voluptuous curves, nautical elements, Jazz Age ornamentation, and seductive neon. After the world fell into decline within the 1970s and ’80s, Steven Brooke and others successfully campaigned to offer protection to the Art Deco District’s architectural treasures from the wrecking ball. Now, with the district’s buildings in any case restored to their eye-popping glory, Brooke offers Miami- and Art Deco–lovers essentially the most up-to-date party of the inimitable architecture that has made town a style magnet for artists, designers, and travelers from all over the world.
