Described as the mise en scne for the romantic drama of American business, New York Citys Chanin Building was built by Irwin S. Chanin in the late 1920s. Ornately adorned with bronze grilles representing some of the finest Art Deco inthe city, the lobby was styled around a City of Opportunity concept. One ofthese ventilator grilles, with loops, spirals and geometric lines symbolizing human thought and emotion, is reproduced here.
