Art Deco emerged around 1925 in France in visual arts, architecture, design and decorative arts.


Art Deco is an art movement  that began emerging in France before the First World War, but really exploded in 1925. 

That year, in fact, the Exposition des Arts Décoratifs (Exhibition of Decorative Arts) was held in Paris, and artists, architects, and designers showed works in this style, thereby propelling the movement into the mainstream. Traversing different mediums, the style combined modern aesthetic with excellent craftsmanship and rich materials. The areas in which it dominated were architecture, design, clothing, jewellery, furniture and handicrafts. As such, the particular style became visible in all the layers of modern life.
