Having been the craze in the late 80’s, the Art Deco movement has returned with a more subtle splash. The re-emerging trend is taking the stylized geometric forms and giving them a softer edge.

The Art Deco movement originally featured colors that were highly contrasted to each other, such as red and black. For today’s interiors, more subdued hues of gold, turquoise, corals, and brown-reds form dazzling patterns in optical illusions. Using zig zags or pulsing geometric shapes intersected with parallel lines, this trend has been given a new life of elegant decadence.
Egyptian motifs and sunbursts are also hallmarks of the Art Deco trend. Expect to see these shapes punctuate lighting, mirrors, and furniture designs. Curvilinear shapes in seating are another common theme, giving furniture a very old Hollywood chic. Mirrors abound in screens, wall panels, as well as panels on furnishings.
