"Art Deco"

 

(Submitted by: Jenny Taliadoros)

Art Deco -- Look for the Art Deco influence in architecture, art, patterns, fashions, jewelry, and other objects to incorporate into your tag art.

The term "Art Deco" is used to refer to a mix of styles from the 1920s and1930s. The distinguishing features of the style are simple, clean shapes, often with a "streamlined" look. The world of Art Deco represents a "graciousness of form" from a simpler time.
