Art Deco Villa in Eau de Nil - Maryborough
The facade of a pretty and very stylised eau de nil stucco Art Deco villa in the provincial Victorian city of Maryborough. The speed lines and fin above the curved bay window, the stepped decoration along the roofline, the stepped layout of the house, the stylised columns of the portico and the streamlined windows all pay homage to the chic, uncluttered lines of streamlined Art Deco architecture very popular in the 1930s.
Maryborough was a Gold Rush town in the mid Nineteenth Century and has many wonderful examples of Victorian architecture, however this house shows that there was money enough for modernity, long after the boom times were over.
