Art Deco architecture in all its glory! Movie theaters, factories, department stores, skyscrapers, diners, churches, government buildings and more! The focus is photography but there are also folder for digital and traditional depictions of Deco architecture, both exterior and interior. We'll also include Art Nouveau, Bauhaus, Streamline Moderne architecture, since some of those styles are very similar to Deco. Also Neo-Deco, i.e. new buildings done in the Deco style.

Hi everyone!

Been a while since I made a blog post here but I wanted to remind folks that this group remains active and I still accept submissions.

A note on submissions, however. This group focuses on Art Deco architecture and also showcases examples of related styles like Bauhaus, Constructivism, Art Nouveau, etc. It is NOT the group to submit your photos of ancient monuments, nineteenth century gravestones, Medieval churches, Italian Neoclassical or other things which are not only clearly not Art Deco but predate the style by decades, centuries or millenia. (The exception to this would be submissions of photos of ancient styles that influenced Deco like Mayan or Egyptian.) Not that these are a huge problem, since I have to review all submissions, but it's still annoying to get 25 submissions and have only a couple of them actually qualify. It's not the quality of the photos, it's the fact they just don't belong in the group!
