Surbiton Station would be one example of Art Deco. |

Mon, 7 Jan 2013, Tony Dragon remarked: Mon 14 Jan 20:00-20:30 Piccadilly Line etc. Huh? Are you advertising a TV programme? If so, which channel?

Surbiton Station would be one example of Art Deco. Episode 1 did Claridges and this is episode 2. Episode 3 of the series is Casa Del Rio (a house in Devon) and Episode 4 is the Orient Express, but it's not clear if they are repeating episodes 3 & 4 as well as 1 & 2, especially as episode 1 was on Monday and episode two is next Tuesday, so they could just be filling some ransom holes in the schedule. -- Roland Perry |

Surbiton Station would be one example of Art Deco. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/11367 Except the main frontage could be said to be simply a stucco knockoff of Holden's designs for the likes of Sudbury Town and Northfields executed 5-7 years earlier. Holden and Ashfield sensibly chose brick which requires less maintenance and wears better than white stucco which looks shabby without frequent repainting. More especially on buildings such as railway stations in the centre of towns. On seaside pavilions perhaps... The tower at the side looks very much like an afterthought unlike Holden's tower at Osterley. While the ventilation slats at the top add interest, its hard not to conclude that the clock would have been better placed by being incorporated into the main frontage in some way. michael adams .... |
