Napier, Art Deco Capital Of New Zealand

Just spent the last weekend in Napier for a cousins wedding. I shot a number of films while I was there and due to bad remembering developed one of the ones I shot round town while I was supposed to be developing the ones I took at the wedding 🙂

Most of Napier was levelled in an earthquake in 1931 which killed 256 people but was mostly rebuilt in the Art Deco style that was popular at the time.
