I Love Suburbia (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Simon Pollock | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Suburbia. Even the word conjures drab sameness. Long boring roads of the same semi-detached houses, same tidy lawns, same practical cars, everyone living the same mundane lives. But, what if you looked harder, and took some time to appreciate all the beauty that abounds in the outer boroughs. What might you find? What magic awaits? From the creator of the Instagram @LondonSuburbia comes a book about the real London, far away from the bright lights and tourists. Discover remnants of the interwar Art Deco architectural movement - the beautiful, optimistic mix of clean lines, geometric symmetry and elegant simplicity - dotted around all the outskirts of London, and countless beautiful factories, town halls, private houses, blocks of flats, cinemas and stations that wouldn't be out of place in Miami Beach. From Southgate to Ruislip, Forest Gate to Surbiton, this is a book about the people who built the city, the legacy they left, and those who live there now.
