It's interesting to see inside Mar A Lago.....
the room has Oriental and Art Deco decor?
Marjorie Merriweather Post, daughter of C. W. Post, sought to create a European-style estate, naming it "Mar-a-Lago," Spanish for "sea to lake".
Design and Architecture:
Inspiration and Style Post drew inspiration from her European travels, combining Spanish, Venetian, and Portuguese styles.
The design features Spanish Mediterranean Revival architecture, including barrel-vaulted roofs, loggias, fountains, tiles, metalwork, and arcades.
Key Features The estate includes a 75-foot tower and observation deck.
A crescent-shaped arc lined with double cloisters overlooks Lake Worth, and a patio is paved with surf-polished stones that Post discovered on Long Island.
Materials Three boatloads of fossil-bearing Doria limestone were imported from Genoa, Italy, for arches and sculptures.
Additionally, Post acquired 36,000 15th-century Spanish tiles, some with Moorish designs, and about 20,000 roofing tiles to complement the pink stucco exterior.
A set of 2,200 black and white marble floor blocks was brought in from a Cuban castle.
