Art Deco in Ypres
Posted in Art Deco, Trips at 19:53 on 14 June 2016
I didn’t expect to find Art Deco buildings in Ypres but what else can you call this?
It was on the Menin Road inside the city limits. And it wasn’t alone; the building below was on the opposite side of the road a bit further in.
Once I’d started looking I found deco styling quite easily:-
This is the above building’s doorway. Good ironwork here too:-
Nearer the outskirts but still on the Menin Road was this brick building:-
On the Menin Road on the way in to town from our hotel was this. We didn’t have time to visit the museum it houses; there were too many others:-

Denis,
Yes and it wasn’t difficult to find.
