London Deco: Residences

Explore the city’s many Art Deco buildings in this new series being created by award winning author Gregory Edwards. In this second volume of the London Deco series, profusely illustrated with over 340 photographs, you will discover the variety of Art Deco apartments – known as blocks of flats in Britain – in the vast suburban ring that surrounds central London. Take a journey into a part of this great city that you never knew existed. 


In between the two world wars London rebuilt itself and expanded with new styles in all directions. Outside of the famous Art Deco buildings in this city such as the Hoover Factory, and the factories on the Great North Road, and the Ideal Radiator building, there were countless buildings constructed between the wars, and even some after, that have Art Deco qualities. This series attempts to give a full picture of just how much there is still here.
