The art deco look

The Art Deco style began in Paris. It was a response to a new movement in the European conception called the modernist movement. Although American designers were not invited to participate in the exhibition, the Art Deco style quickly became a defining style for items in American architecture, decorative arts, and households. During the Depression, it was the first style to use mass-produced materials at home and its popularity made it an immediate blow.

Today, the style is popular everywhere. The Art Deco look has been a popular choice among many owners and designers, and is now part of modern design. The bright colors of the 1920s are particularly striking. During this period, mass cars, high-speed pavements and speed trains were a common sight in homes and public places. The style was also popular in the tech world, bringing us the internet and more sophisticated gadgets.

The Art Deco style is famous for its geometric shapes and simple symmetrical designs. Its ornamentation is geometric or stylized, often depicting objects or people. The style was influenced by the Cubist and Favist movements, but the influence is widespread. The simple and elegant designs of the 30s are still the most modern forms of the Art Deco style.
