Art Deco Villa of Clinker Brick - Thornbury
This pretty stylised clinker brick Art Deco villa with its matching brick wall can be found in the Melbourne suburb of Thornbury.
Standing proudly on the corner of an intersection of a busy thoroughfare and a side street, its white wrought iron Art Deco gate encourages you to walk up the garden path hedged by diosmas and exotics to the front door, which has an iron grille to match the gate.
The low slung roof, rounded edging of each wall, large "waterfall windows" of curved glass and geometric pattern on the gate and grille all pay homage to the chic, uncluttered lines of Australian Streamline Moderne Art Deco architecture in the late 30s, just before the Second World War.
