At the time, the house at 80 Johnston Street, was on the market and the owners allowed me to photograph the interior on the eve of its auction. The house had a few Waterfall Art Deco features such as light coloured and curved bricks, a curved corner window and a curved edged linen cupboard and other more general Art Deco touches in the window and door finishes. The glass pannelled doors all featured the same combination of contrasting glass. - Marghanita da Cruz, 22 July 2016.
