Deke Erh and Tess Johnston, leading chroniclers of Western architecture in pre-1949 Shanghai, launch their latest, long-awaited book: Art Deco Shanghai. The pair have been documenting Shanghai's Art Deco treasures for a quarter century now, and this 320-page book reflects the depth and breadth of their knowledge and passion, turning up new finds and memorializing old favourites that have since gone under the wrecking ball. A landmark book, destined to become a classic.
