More #ArtDeco vibes! The catchily named "Industrial Dancefloor" was once a powerhouse for an old German factory that made everything from bicycles and typewriters to cars and aircraft engines. The factory has stood abandoned and empty since the 1990s.

A little history article I wrote, along with a couple of other photo angles - https://www.obsidianurbexphotography.com/industrial/industrial-dancefloor-germany/

Just for fun, here is a random photo from my collection of beautiful places lost in time. Would you like to hear its story? Did something catch your eye? Ask me a question in the comments!

Centrale Idroelettrica is a former hydroelectric power station in Italy. It was built in the early 1900’s, in a utilitarian variation of Art Deco architecture which was popular for large industrial complexes of the time.

The powerplant was severely damaged during World War Two bomb raids, with restoration work only occuring in 1960’s. It finally ceased electricity production in the 1970’s, and now much of the site lays in ruins.
