Bucharest’s premier arts centre, the whitewashed ArCub, is one of the country’s finest art-deco buildings, with the trademark combination of elongated banner windows and steamship portholes. Bucharest was known as Little Paris for its cultural and cosmopolitan reputation, as well as having its own Arcul de Triumf. Oil and food exports brought great wealth to the city between the wars, and the period was characterised by the construction of many art-deco buildings, a style that symbolised this capitalist success. The 1934 Telephone Palace on Calea Victoriei was the first building with a steel structure in Romania. Art-deco apartment blocks, doors, gates, glass canopies, fountains and clocks can be seen all over the city. Amzei Square’s shops and the Judecătoria (courthouse) on Stirbei Voda are also in this style.
