This is a bit of a non-standard Art Deco architectural detail: a narrow wooden doorway with an overextended window on top of it that provides light to the stair case behind it. I like how the rule of three typical of the Art Deco style just stares, in the case of this design, obviously into the observer’s face.

If you plan acquiring a historic property in Romania or start a renovation project, I would be delighted to advice you in sourcing the property, specialist research, planning permissions, restoration project management, etc. To discuss your particular plan please see my contact details in the Contact page of this weblog.
