Miami Beach is a treasure trove of Art Deco design.
these early-20th-country hotels in the 700 block of
Ocean Drive all display various aspects of
the style,expecially the contrast of smoothfaced walls with the
details of metal,terra cotta and colored concrete.
The Paramount Theater(1931,Timothy Pflueger),Oakland,Calif.,
is richly decorated with theatrical motifs such as
these dancing ladies that grace the north wall of the grand lobby.
Their stylized robes and faces harmonize with the
Art Deco details surrounding them.(JackE. Boucher)
