Art Deco (design style)

Art Deco is a design style from the 1920s and 1930s characterized by bold geometric shapes, luxurious materials, and a sense of modern glamour.

Art Deco often features rich colors, metallic finishes, and motifs such as zigzags, sunbursts, and stylized motifs symbolizing progress and elegance. It was used in architecture, fashion, jewelry, and everyday objects, reflecting an optimistic, forward-looking attitude during a time of technological advancement and cultural change.
