Shanghai is generally associated with futuristic towers, but this issue of Home & Office Design takes a look back on the eve of China's first World Congress on Art Deco, which was hosted in Shanghai November 2015. All stories profile buildings that embody the city's trademark architectural style, including an Art Deco abattoir reborn as a creative hub, eight historic 1930s hotels and a recently-converted 1915 shikumen townhouse as it enters the modern age.
