This window is in the gents’ toilet at Modern Two (Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art). I love its geometric style.

Apart from its two Art Deco buildings (and even they were minor – see previous post) most of the architecture in Mold was fairly undistinguished.
St Mary’s Church (Eglwys y Santes Fair) prominent at the end of the High Street and built in thanksgivinbg for Henry VII of England’s victory at Bosworth Field was an exception.

So too was this Tudor style building with unusual glazing, just opposite St Mary’s :-
Note the S-shaped pattern of the glazing on this zoom:-

On the way up to Peterhead we stopped at Stonhaven again.
I took a few more photos of that Art Deco terrace of shops.
Corner shop entrance. Good curved glass:-
Slightly different view compared to my other shot of this terrace of shops (see link above):-

I spotted these windows the last time we were in Edinburgh.
They are at the start of Nicolson Street, just after South Bridge travelling south.
They seem to belong at the moment to a restaurant called Spoon.
It’s the overall shape plus the bend to the frontage that gives the Deco feel.
The nice stained glass detailing is more Art Nouveau than Deco however.
