Arts décoratif.. Trinity Arcade.



It's definitely not the only way to pass through from Hay St to St Georges Terrace.. but as far as I'm concerned walking through Trinity Arcade is the best way.. three guesses why :) The arcade, history here, built in 1923 is so Art Deco it makes my head spin. Here last week looking ever so elegant in it's Christmas adornments. Although a mixture of styles the bold geometric lines fit my sense of minimalism to perfection! I purposely waited until the arcade was free of people distracting from the details:)  Happy Thursday, take care and stay safe.. P.s. I apologize if I've shown the arcade before but I never can resist taking more!

  4. Oh how I wish we had a shopping arcade like this here in Phoenix. When I visit London and Paris I seek them out as important destinations. Years ago when I visited London with my friend David, we stopped in to a jewelry store in the Burlington Arcade so I could get a closer look at a necklace I saw in the window. It turned out that the necklace was frightfully expensive so I couldn't purchase it but, they did let me try it on. I wonder who is wearing it now. I hope it has a good home.

  7. The top poto is exquisite and I readily understand why you love this one. I like to visit arcades but had to smile at the differences when I visited one in Paris and the other at GEM in Moscow in the early 90's. Love the tiled floor.

  10. This is oh so beautiful, irresistible to photograph. I love those arched ceilings and the gorgeous details. The second shot reminds me of the passages in Paris, something I truly love.
