No flair for NZ doors...yet! This one in Auckland.
A couple of close ups of the detailing. 500 years old and still functioning as intended
I had to build a new back door to my art studio, so I decided to paint it with the dragon from the Blue Lotus!

Brick Expressionism is related to Art Deco, but a little different. Loved the unique architecture in Hamburg!

edit: this is a brutalist sculptural front door. brutalist sculpture has slightly different principles then brutalist architecture in the sense that it allows more of an abstract shapes. both of them have the similarity of being bold, monochromatic and having raw texture.
Lillian’s Music Store was where Tom Petty himself would go to buy guitar strings and other equipment, a business dating to before the 1950s - although the building was a music store before that, it had another owner and had a different name.
After closing, it was re-opened as Lillian’s Music Store… the bar. Now it is North Central Florida’s oldest continuously running bar - having celebrated 50 years of business.
The interior is full of carved wood and ornate stained glass that appears to be over 100 years old. (Didn’t know if I should include that photo on the door subreddit lol).
