This fascinating lexicon examines the quixotic architectural expressionsfound on select mid-20th-century modern commercialbuildings in South Florida. Showcasing the work of 13 noted architects from Miami Beach to FortLauderdale, it highlights the playful decorative detailsand gestures--swooping overhangs, brise-soleil, cheese holes and arches, andscreening--that expressed the era's shiny optimism and theregion's carefree resort culture. With brief bios of the architects and street maps pinpointing thelocation of each building, this book offers tourists, architects,history buffs, and preservationists a new context and appreciation for theseworks of art, many of which areendangered.

Ok so I ordered this item listed as having free shipping. It was listed at $43.54 with free shipping. Somehow I ended up being charged $65.52. Then after waiting 3 weeks and having absolutely no tracking information I spoke with the seller who agreed to send a replacment, but despite charging me extra money was unwilling to ship that replacment in a way that wouldn't take atleast 3 more weeks. Ultimately this was a complete waste of time and the seller is not one that I would recommend.

This is not a coloring book!!!!! It’s just a book of black and white photos and even if colored over would look horrible! This book is a scam and I have received 2 items out of 3 I ordered and the third hasn’t even been shipped. Tried to message seller but only option given is to send the item number but no way to give reason for dissatisfaction with item! I would advise not ordering anything from this seller…
