Feel like your living space could use a little pick-me-up? When it comes to restyling or redecorating your living space, you’d obviously want it to match your personality and your unique way of looking at life. One of the ways in which you can do this is by introducing some elements of Art Deco.
Art Deco, also known as style moderne, was a movement that originated in the 1920s and developed into a major style in Western Europe and the US in the 1930s. The movement represented modernism turned into fashion and its products included individually crafted luxury items along with mass-produced wares. The goal, always, was to create a sleek and elegant image that defied tradition and that symbolized wealth and sophistication.
Here are some ideas that will help you get started:
The bold geometric design
If you want to add a little flair to your home, then boldness is the key! Start off by adding strikingly bold colors that are bound to catch the eye and that will make your living room come to life almost instantly.
Bringing in bright and intense tones of peacock blue, emerald green, red and yellows combined with a tone that brings it all together and creates a look that is elegant, is the best way to introduce sophistication into your home.
Go Wild
The 1930s, during which the Art Deco movement took off, also happened to be a boom for international travel and tourism. This gave people inclined towards the Art Deco movement the chance to gain access to some truly non-conventional, and in some cases, absolutely wild, pieces. Animal prints and safaris became the perfect way to add just the right level of exotic to people’s living spaces.
Add an exotic and tribal touch by using bold colour, shiny fabrics, metallic paints and mirrors, all of which will bring a vibrant look to your home. Here at Newman and Bright, we offer a wide selection of bespoke art and decor. Click here to view our collection.
Artwork and Sculptures
Sculptures are not something to be afraid of. If anything, they can add a unique personality to your living space. During the 1930’s, the media and entertainment industry pioneered the trend of sculptures, which was later mimicked by interior designers.
Add some bold oil paintings, sculptural table lamps along with some lavish bedroom furniture with fine details to really make an impression.
Egyptian Influences
Egyptian influences are a very common feature amongst many interior art and décor pieces. The inspiration comes from King Tutankhamen’s tomb, pyramids, hieroglyphics and sphinxes, many of which can be added to the many design elements in the home. The Egyptian influence and the use of such elements in your furniture, fabric, textiles and even your wall paper will bring out the Art Deco style in your house.
