Art Deco

Art Deco design became very popular during 1920's and 1930's by popular Hollywood movies. These styles are mainly vertically oriented design with futuristic, sleek and geometric shapes using concrete, smooth faced stone, glass, metal and many different bright colors to create machine age or futuristic look. This distinctly urban style was never widely used in residential buildings but it was more widespread in public and commercial buildings of the period. Art Deco homes are usually large in size, flat roof with distinctive features of curved glass windows. Extensive use of Laminate and chrome with wall to wall carpeting to create charm and glamour. During this era many of the furnishings were very practical but designed up-to-date materials, curved lines and bright colors which reflect back to Hollywood influence.
