What is art deco style?

The Art Deco style era spans from roughly 1920 - 1940 but crossed over significantly with earlier and later eras too. It now retains a significant influence on homes and interior design and remains one of the most popular design periods. The movement reached its peak in 1925 at the International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts in Paris, where the ‘Style Moderne’, as it was originally known, was showcased in grand fashion to the world.Art Deco style typically called on clean lines, angles and geometric shapes and often incorporated stylised and sensuous depictions of the human body, especially the female body. Archaeological discoveries such as the Mayan and Aztec civilisations were a pervasive influence too, particularly the stepped, angular forms found in these sites.

Ceiling lights were particularly popular among art deco dining room lighting styles. Many of these deployed elaborate stepped or tapered shapes paired with bold, modern designs, often recalling architectural landmarks of the age.
