Set apart by its smooth lines, triangular shapes and streamlined embellishments, Art Deco is a truly timeless style. Born from French architecture and the visual designs of the early 1900s, this form of decorative art began to infiltrate everything from the fashion world to car manufacture and jewellery. By 1928, Art Deco appeared most notably in structures such as the Chrysler Building in Manhattan.
Although it fell out of fashion during both World Wars and became outdated in the 1950s, Deco has had a true resurgence that has transcended many trends. In fact, as home design fads come and go, Art Deco seems eternal. Its glamorous, smart and adventurous qualities don't appear to date like other ornate or minimalist styles and it continues to inspire interior designers year-on-year.
Art Deco is more than just about the Roaring Twenties, it's completely formed its own identity in the modern world of home design. It's also a style that we highly recommend you consider when remodelling your home.
