Art Deco
Art Deco interior design captures the exuberance and glamour of the 1920s and 1930s through bold geometric patterns, rich jewel tones, and luxurious materials. From the sunburst motifs of the Chrysler Building to the velvet lounges of jazz-age speakeasies, Art Deco celebrates opulence, craftsmanship, and the machine age with unmatched visual drama. It is designed to make a statement.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Art Deco too bold for everyday living?
Art Deco can be adapted to any comfort level. You can go full glamour with lacquered walls and velvet everything, or take a subtle approach with geometric accent pieces, brass hardware, and one statement wall. The key is controlled drama: even a little Art Deco adds sophistication.
What is the difference between Art Deco and Art Nouveau?
Art Nouveau preceded Art Deco and features flowing, organic lines inspired by nature, such as vines, flowers, and insects. Art Deco, which followed, embraces sharp geometric shapes, machine-age materials, and symmetry. Art Nouveau is romantic and organic; Art Deco is bold and architectural.
How much does an Art Deco makeover cost?
Art Deco can be one of the more expensive styles due to its emphasis on luxurious materials. A full room makeover ranges from $5,000 to $20,000 or more. However, strategic accent pieces like a geometric mirror, brass light fixtures, and velvet pillows can bring the Art Deco feel for under $1,000.
