Lempicka

The addition of the Lempicka gadget on the footnote bar is quite deliberate. Tamara de Lempicka was one of the most important Art Deco artists in the early 1900s. Her style is bold and courageous, and you can't help but feel the cool and sensuous side of Art Deco when you see her work. 

Our Tiong Bahru flats are so distinctive because they are Art Deco buildings. Lempicka is relevant to us because she's already done the homework on what colours best symbolise the Art Deco period. Use the gadget and check out the link to learn more about Art Deco, and perhaps form some opinions on what colours you like best. Think perhaps about how we can make the newly-repainted Tiong Bahru a true work of art.

Here are some links for more information:
