Rúa do Areal, 18, 36201 Vigo, Pontevedra, Spain (1928)

This building at 18 Rúa do Areal in Vigo has many beautiful Art Deco features. It is currently occupied by a variety of businesses, that include a rock bar, a restaurant, and a women's clothes shop. All I could find out about it was that it was built in 1928 and has the initials EP accompanying the date over the main door.

Main Post Office, 1927-1931, Plaza del Alcalde Manuel Casas, A Coruña, Galicia, Spain

This beautiful main post office in A Coruna was featured on a 2002 Spanish postage stamp. Built between 1927 and 1931 on land reclaimed from the sea, the architects of this eye-catching gem were Luis Lozano Losilla and Joaquin Otamendi Machimbarrena. All components of this large building, which is easily the best-designed construction in this part of the city, seem to flow easily one into the next, they are so well-coordinated.

This absolutely gorgeous frontage belonging to the public swimming pool in Le Havre is another miraculous survivor of WWII in this city that was mostly reduced to rubble by bombing and shelling. The pool's website is here in French:

Montague Burton, The Tailor of Taste, 1938, Aberystwyth, Ceredigion

This beautifully preserved Grade II listed building is a real joy to behold. With so many intact original features, it is a splendid example of Burton's art deco town centre buildings from the 1930s. All the details are available here:

Located on the corner of Terrace Road and North Parade in the Aberystwyth town centre. The tilework on the facades is very similar in design to the Llanelli Burton's featured in a previous post on this blog, but is in far better condition. Enjoy the rest of the pictures!
