Turning its back on the trend towards homogeneity of today's watering holes, Pub Scene celebrates the often exuberant, sometimes elegant décor, and always singular, wow factor of public drinking places, whether they are big or small, traditional or contemporary.
Pub Scene describes some of the world's best looking pubs, including:
- British Victorian Gin Palaces
- Classic Art Nouveau Belgian café bars
- Germany's beloved bierkellers
- Australia's amazing beachside beer-gardens
- America's notable brew-pubs
Each facility is described in detail: theme, special features, design style, music, and more!
High quality, full color photos of the exteriors and interiors make this a great source book of ideas and stimulation for the design professional.
