Electric Photographs Of Abandoned Art-Deco Power Plant
With its gameboy-style control panels, circular rooms and intricate glass ceilings, this hundred-year-old power plant could be the set of a retro sci-fi movie.
Kelenfold plant in Budapest was built in 1914, merging industrialism with art deco architecture.
Most of the building has since fallen into disrepair, although a small part of it is still in use.
The splendid interior has attracted the attention of Hollywood - it has been used as a filming location for for films, including Spy and the Chernobyl Diaries.
And it also caught the eye of urban photographer Roman Robroek.
“I have never seen such industrial architecture in my life and it was amazing to see,” he said.
"It is truly a very unique location and I’m very happy to have seen it with my own eyes.
"The control room will not be destroyed, nor will it be restored, and you can see that nature is slowly taking it back.
"There was a leakage from rain, thus causing decay.
"It’s a rare gem among abandoned locations - even though the power plant itself isn’t completely abandoned - and was on my wish-list to visit for a very long time.”
