This term, short for &quot;Decorative Arts,&quot; takes its name from the International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts held in Paris in 1925. This style developed in reaction to Art Nouveau, favoring a return to sobriety and order after the decorative excesses of the Belle \u00c9poque.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Le-style-Art-deco-origines-et-evolution-historique-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"Le style Art d\u00e9co : origines et \u00e9volution historique\" class=\"wp-image-3718\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Le-style-Art-deco-origines-et-evolution-historique-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Le-style-Art-deco-origines-et-evolution-historique-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Le-style-Art-deco-origines-et-evolution-historique-150x100.webp 150w, https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Le-style-Art-deco-origines-et-evolution-historique-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Le-style-Art-deco-origines-et-evolution-historique-18x12.webp 18w, https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Le-style-Art-deco-origines-et-evolution-historique.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The first manifestations of this aesthetic <strong>geometric and refined<\/strong> appeared from 1902-1904 in the creations of Henri Bellery-Desfontaines. The movement reached its peak in the 1920s, this effervescent period nicknamed the &quot;Roaring Twenties&quot;. You find in this style a certain resemblance with <a href=\"https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/en\/inspirations\/style-shabby-chic-decoration\/\">shabby chic style<\/a> for its vintage side, but with a much more structured and less romantic approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a gradual decline in the 1930s and 1940s, Art Deco experienced a remarkable renaissance in the 1960s. A new generation of passionate collectors rediscovered the style in the 1980s and 1990s, propelling it back to the forefront of the decorative scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IkURDJZ2xUI\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"caracteristiques-et-elements-distinctifs-du-style-art-deco\">Characteristics and distinctive elements of the Art Deco style<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Art Deco shapes and patterns<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Caracteristiques-et-elements-distinctifs-du-style-Art-deco-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"Caract\u00e9ristiques et \u00e9l\u00e9ments distinctifs du style Art d\u00e9co\" class=\"wp-image-3717\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Caracteristiques-et-elements-distinctifs-du-style-Art-deco-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Caracteristiques-et-elements-distinctifs-du-style-Art-deco-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Caracteristiques-et-elements-distinctifs-du-style-Art-deco-150x100.webp 150w, https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Caracteristiques-et-elements-distinctifs-du-style-Art-deco-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Caracteristiques-et-elements-distinctifs-du-style-Art-deco-18x12.webp 18w, https:\/\/lamaisoncoloniale.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Caracteristiques-et-elements-distinctifs-du-style-Art-deco.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Art Deco style<\/strong> is characterized by its <strong>clean geometric lines<\/strong> and its obvious symmetry.
