Deco Delights : Preserving the Beauty and Joy of Miami Beach Architecture

A magnificent testimonial to the continuing commitment to the preservation of the Art Deco District (ADD) of Miami Beach, FL, a unique architectural enclave that is the largest and most important district of its kind anywhere in the world. Originally, this district was the creation of a gifted team of architects who designed some of the most colorful and sophisticated examples of crisp modern American architecture of the 1930s. The ADD exists today chiefly because of the inspiration and leadership of Capitman, who has been determined to make people aware of and care about the beauty and significance of the small hotels and apartment buildings illustrated in these photos.Capitman, Barbara Baer is the author of 'Deco Delights : Preserving the Beauty and Joy of Miami Beach Architecture', published 2000 under ISBN 9780788193019 and ISBN 0788193015.
