Art Deco in Kendal
Posted in Architecture, Art Deco, Woolworths at 12:00 on 6 May 2019
Kendal is reasonably out of the way but it nevertheless has some Art Deco buildings.
This one is now a Home Bargains but looks as if it could once have been a Woolworths:-

There are nice curved swoops below the roofline. It’s a pity the windows’ eyes have been put out, though:-

Bodycare has “rule of three” in the windows and the roofline is decoish:-

It’s not surprising if a Burton’s is deco but in this one the main pointer is the company’s logo just below the roofline. The rest looks older than deco:-

Card Factory is just about deco. Is it the rendering – sadly now grey rather than white – or the roofline which gives it a deco feel?
