Several Indian cities have had their brush with Art Deco architecture, but none has had the racy, head-over-heels affair that Bombay/Mumbai did. Beginning in the 1930s and lasting till the early 1950s, the city saw the development of several 'Deco Districts', along the sea and elsewhere, which blended Art Deco with Indian elements to create a unique style which has been called Indo Deco. Marking a stark departure from its Victorian Gothic identity, the new architectural style defined Bombay forever as a modern, future-forward metropolis.
