Art Deco was a popular design choice among style-conscious Americans in the 1920s and 1930s. Geometric design, stylized forms and manufactured materials characterized this style. Some of the country's most famous landmarks are in the Art Deco style, including the Empire State Building in New York City and the Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles. Art Deco was also used in homes, and with the style becoming popular again, you can include it in your personal design aesthetic. Here are a few ways to incorporate it into your home's design.
Choose Vibrant, Saturated Colors
The hallmark of Art Deco design is bold, saturated colors. Think of jewel tones like deep emerald green, bold garnet or sapphire blue. Colors are often accented with gold trims and decorative details.
Use Curved and Geometric Elements
Art Deco is defined by its use of lines and geometric design. Curves, triangles, trapezoids and other shapes are featured in furniture and home accessories.
Incorporate Fluted Textures
An easy way to incorporate Art Deco design into your home is by adding furnishings with fluted textures. Fluted elements, such as side tables, are becoming popular again and are easy to find at home design stores.
Showcase Bold Art and Sculpture
The Art Deco era was defined by a love of art and sculpture. You can find vintage pieces from those decades online or at a retro furniture dealer. New elements that evoke the same feelings are also available through the same sources.
