ART DECO IN LA

When it comes to Art Deco, LA is one city that embraces the style wholeheartedly. 

Art Deco was a popular design movement from 1925 until the 1940’s.  At the time, the style was seen as elegant, glamorous, functional and modern.  The style is based on mathematical geometric shapes, but is considered eclectic because it draws its inspiration from a variety of sources.  Recently, Art Deco has experienced a revival, and appreciation for the style has soared.

 

From historical hotels, theatres, homes and even the city hall, Art Deco can be spotted all around LA. 

 

 

 

 Even Gibson takes inspiration from the Deco style in some of its Studio furniture pieces such as the Moderne Side Table pictured left & Deco Club Chair.
