Art deco was an eclectic artistic and design style that began in Paris in the 1920s. It influenced architecture, interior design, fashion, and other visual arts. Art deco represented elegance, glamour, functionality and modernity through its use of geometric shapes, bright colors, and streamlined forms. It embraced influences from neoclassical, cubist, modernist and other early 20th century styles. Art deco furniture and interior design featured sleek lines, geometric patterns, and experimental materials like metal and glass. Distinctive art deco motifs included chevron patterns, zigzags, sunbursts, and stepped forms.
