Architecture: Toulouse, city of art … Deco!
Périgord library, Bourse du Travail, municipal sports park in Ramier, Cités-Jardins, the Dépêche building on rue Alsace or villas like those on rue Saint-Bernard are some of the jewels of Art Deco in Toulouse. A book details the beauties of these constructions of the interwar period.
“Art Deco, artistic movement of the interwar period of the twentiethe century, begins in the twenties (…) its development will be stopped by the Second World War and the end of the lightness of the Roaring Twenties “, explains Geneviève Furnémont, author of the book” Toulouse Art Déco “which is published by Editions toulousaines Terrefort in the “Toulouse master builders” collection
