Art Deco term

The term Art Deco came from the World Fair held in Paris in 1925. The fair was officially titled Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes. For years, Paris remained the center of Art Deco style. From this place came popular Art Deco designers like furniture maker Jacques Emile Ruhlmann and metal artist Jean Dunand.

Rockefeller and art deco

Rockefeller Center is synonymous with the notorious industrialist and philanthropist John D. Rockefeller who became America's first billionaire. Built largely after the stock market crash of 1929, the project was the largest private building project ever undertaken during modern times and was finished in the art deco style of the times.

Art deco designs

Art deco. Art deco design relies on brilliant colors, strong contrasts, and shiny fixtures. To add art deco flair to your bathroom, look for black and white tile, bright colors on the walls, and geometric designs for handles and accessories.

If you use wood, choose a dark color like mahogany-and set it up against highly polished metals such as chrome. Lighting makes a difference, too: look for bright fluorescents that incorporate geometric patterns. Art deco is all about contrast, geometry, and stark elegance.

Art deco history

Art Deco is a decorative and architectural style of design that was popular in the 1920s and 30s. The design was characterized by the use of plastic and glass, with geometric designs and bold colors adapted to mass production.

Art deco is a style that originated in French luxury commodities shortly before World War I, and it gained immense popularity amongst the elite class of society. Long thin forms, curving surfaces, and geometric patterning characterize art deco, which was prominently displayed at the Paris Exposition of Decorative Arts where fashion trends are set.
