Architreasures will take you on a road trip through 20th-century architecture—from neon-lit art deco theaters and Route 66 motels to futuristic modernist banks, Googie gas stations, and brutalist utopias. Key Features: • Large-format photographs and detail shots of structures in Miami, Los Angeles, Palm Springs, and other US cities, as well as England, France, Belgium, Australia, and New Zealand • Chronological organization allows readers to follow the evolution of design movements—from the Jazz Age’s art deco to the brutalism of the 1970s and ’80s. • Each building’s year completed, architect, and location is provided, as is a short history that tells the story of its creation, its original purpose, and its current use. Featuring nearly 200 stunning images of 135 breathtaking structures, this book beautifully presents the case for why preserving our built environment is historically, culturally, and aesthetically important. AVAILABLE JULY 2025 Geoffrey Goddard is an internationally awarded art director, designer, photographer, and author.
