Art Deco was a globally popular style and affected many areas of design. It was used widely in consumer products such as furniture, cookware, china, textiles, jewellery, clocks and electronic items such as radios, telephones and jukeboxes. It also influenced architecture, interior design, industrial design, fashion, graphic design and vehicles.
Art Deco declined in popularity after World War II. It was referred to as gaudy and inappropriately luxurious. A re-surge of interest began again in the 1960's.
This particular style of design still continues to inspire designers and is often used in contemporary fashion, jewellery and toiletries and now once again has returned to our high streets.
