Art Deco is not popular in living room interior design – it is too expensive, bold, and elaborate.
And that is true, but.
Unpopular does not mean bad. Art Deco is valued precisely for its exclusivity. Let’s see how to keep the balance and avoid making it tacky.
Features of Art Deco Design
Style Ideas
Art Deco is fashionable, but only in people’s wishes. Many people want it, many read about it and look at it, but only a few decide to actually do it. And honestly, that is the right choice.
It is a risky and expensive style. An Art Deco living room is original and bold. Despite the variety of patterns and motifs in the finishes, the overall picture looks expensive and sophisticated. The main features of the style:
- A combination of geometric shapes, zigzags, and angular patterns.
- What is usually called “glamour,” but without becoming tacky.
- Beveled mirrors.
- No obviously cheap materials or obvious imitations.
- Glossy surfaces.
- Expensive textiles and furniture. Tufted upholstery.
- A large number of original accessories.
