Insights
At the start of the twentieth century there was a drive to find a new design language that championed the contemporary world. This resulted in Art Deco, short for ‘Arts Décoratifs’, embodying elements of bold colour, geometric pattern, exquisite craftsmanship and a sense of luxury. It influenced small and large designs- from clothing, architecture, advertising, home wares, bridges, to ocean liners and skyscrapers around the world.
