The resurgance of 1920s Art Deco chic is undoubtedly due to Baz Luhrman's recreation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's hypnotising The Great Gatsby. I'm not impartial to a bit of hair jewellery, and have welcomed the sequinned headband's revival with open arms. However, I think it won't be long before the Roaring Twenties influence makes its way back into interior design as well as fashion.
Post World War One and pre-Depression era, the Twenties were a time of not only decadance, but a daring departure from the stuffy Victorian era, symbolic of a massive shift in social ideals. This is a fun era to recreate in terms of interior design, as it gives not only a nostalgic Twenties feel to your home, but gives you space to be a little bit daring. If you are into statement pieces for your home, you'll find some amazing Art Deco items.
Aim for sleek lines, dark colours and glossy finishes, giving off feel of opulance and luxury. Play with the contrast of light and dark colours, and think about how they compliment each other. Observe Art Deco and see how straight lines merge with curved lines in perfect harmony.
Have a good day,
Joanna
