Art Deco

Not long ago @aviationdoctor.eth shared a modern example of Art Deco – here’s my response. This is Rose Hill, a 45-story Manhattan skyscraper by Rockefeller that opened in 2021. Big fan of the buttresses with bottom-lit chevron reliefs, which I find produce an appearance that is simultaneously imposing and refined.

taking a moment to remember Earth how it was, the Sun was still visible, air breathable, humans were around. Fun times.

How true.

Those other styles you mention are quite homogeneous, whereas Deco has a rather wide range – all the way from late Nouveau (10s) to early Mid-century (40-50s).

Gorgeous!

What I find remarkable about art deco is that, unlike other equally heavy distinctive styles (such as rococo with its frills or bauhaus with its sharp lines), I don’t feel like I’d get bored of seeing/living in art deco on the daily. It has timeless elegance.

I’m glad they’re still building those

Thanks Sarah!

I think you have to tip every day for a few days in a row for it to go back up to what it’s supposed to be.
