Style
The Rainbow Room was designed by French architect Jacques Carlu. The Rainbow Room draws its inspiration from the Round Room in the Carlu, his design for a restaurant in Toronto. Designed in a simplified classical style, The Rainbow Room featured a revolving dance floor, a live big band orchestra, and a view of the New York City skyline. Private events were hosted in several banquet rooms on the floor below.
On the same floor of the GE building was The Rainbow Grill, a separate, somewhat less expensive restaurant with an à la carte menu and that had its own celebrations for main holidays.

Famous quotes containing the word style:
“The authoritarian child-rearing style so often found in working-class families stems in part from the fact that parents see around them so many young people whose lives are touched by the pain and delinquency that so often accompanies a life of poverty. Therefore, these parents live in fear for their children’s future—fear that they’ll lose control, that the children will wind up on the streets or, worse yet, in jail.”
—Lillian Breslow Rubin (20th century)
“We think it is the richest prose style we know of.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
