Nardini’s, Byres Road, Glasgow
Posted in Art Deco, Glasgow at 12:00 on 15 March 2012
I hadn’t been to Glasgow for a while before last Sunday.
Imagine my surprise when I came upon this in Byres Road:-
This wasn’t a Nardini’s the previous time I was in Byres Road but I can’t remember what shop occupied this building up to then.
They have tried to make it look Deco, certainly. The lettering is Deco; and the top glazing. The interior lighting is like the ones in the re-opened Nardini’s in Largs.
Since it is new I can’t really include it in my Glasgow’s Art Deco Heritage series. I wonder if anyone in the future will think it’s 1930s.
