This photograph was taken in Napier, for those of you who don't know much about New Zealand history Napier had a major earthquake in 1931 and most of the city was destroyed. Because of this a lot of the buildings in Napier are art deco style as that was the style at the time the city was reconstructed.
The photo below is actually of a bank - but I loved the ceiling - a combination of art deco style and Maori design.
