I have always been drawn to Art Deco and moderne styles. The designers almost universally recognized that in their buildings proper proportion was a must for the building to age gracefully.

@B Babbich Excellent question ! Lots to unpack here. If by "age" we are talking about appearance, than it is mostly on the owners to upkeep what are arguably sometimes fussy building materials that require more than the usual amount of maintenance to their finishes. If by age we are talking about "going out of style" that can be attributed to the flow of time - unstoppable. Modern is a style of architecture that came out of the post WW2 era. The buildings tended to be void of ornamentation with mostly straight lines. Mies van der Rohe was a great American Architect who created masterpieces in this style. If we are talking about modern being a reference to "new" than again, it is probably an upkeep issue. The one thing I have learned in my forty plus years as a design professional is that, if you get the proportions of a building correct, you can screw up a lot of other stuff and get away with it. If the proportions are off out of the gate, not a lot of chances to recover from that one. Cheers

From what I have understood, alot of the design was based on speed and movement, inspired by planes, trains and automobiles that had started to evolve at that time period. Thats why household objects like toasters and furniture at that time had an aerodynamic streamlined look. First time I heard about Art Deco was when Egon mentioned it in Ghostbusters. ;)

I once had the pleasure of visiting the city of Napier in the north island of New Zealand. It is a city that was rebuilt after a devastating earthquake in 1931. Due to the era, the prominent style of new structures was naturally art deco. It is truly like going into a time machine to walk along its streets and see the building landmarks and also the promenade that is set on the cliffs overseeing the pacific. The residents of the city are especially proud of this heritage, using other aspects of the art deco movement in their modern city design and personal style choices. Any student or admirer of art deco design would be well served to spend some time there. It is truly a wonderful place.

No other place in the world has so many (hundreds, maybe thousands) of examples of Art Deco architecture.

Deco in all it's forms were everyday items to me as a child. From the furnishings in my grandparent's homes and some of the used stuff my own folks had as a young couple. The schools government buildings, department stores The little things that took on the streamlined style, many remaining in production being "traditional" compared to 50s designs until the new era of space came along in the 60s. Since I didn't have a horrible childhood, Deco/Streamline is my benchmark for what a thing should be. But Deco imitations today seem to be simply that.

I spent a couple of years (roughly 2017-2020) trying to bring an updated Gatsby-inspired Art Deco style to my home, but the effort was exhausting. Unfortunately, most of the iconic furniture didn't survive the period, and what did survive was not of the best quality. Sourcing good pieces was extremely difficult. The period was very short in comparison to other style movements (thanks to the Depression and WWII), so there's never been a lot to choose from anyway. In addition, the various "Deco Revival" efforts (particularly the one that occurred briefly in the 1980s) were never executed very well, and the collections look cheap and lacked both quality and integrity. I've spotted a few Deco Revival type things recently (Theodore Alexander's are excellent), but they fall into two very distinct categories: 1) wildly expensive and unattainable, or 2) low-end knockoffs that won't last the year. I finally gave up and went back to English Traditional. Since I can't have The Great Gatsby, I'll just stick with Chariots of Fire.

The average person would not see Streamline as separate from Art Deco. In part because they are not disparate aesthetics and in part because Deco was always eclectic.

I wore all sorts of aesthetic Art Deco ornaments, though they were less intricate and delicate than their Art Nouveau counterparts. My fictitious filthy rich boyfriend or husband, who also happened to own a breathtaking green Bugatti and an Art Deco-style building like the Plaza Hotel in New York, would gift me with these stunning pieces of jewelry.

Everyone who goes mad about the Art Deco you definitely must visit Lithuania's second largest city - Kaunas. During the interwar period Kaunas became the new capital of Lithuania (since Vilnius was occupied by poles) and slowly, but surely was growing. And, therefore, most of the architectural buildings in the center were erected in Art Deco (Modernism) style. In 2023 Kaunas was recognised as a world heritage site by UNESCO due to its high concentration of Art Deco buildings.

Great video. But no mention of Miami or Mumbai? Mumbai ranks as second city after Miami with the most collection of Art Deco buildings.

Thanks, it's hard to cover everything in such a short format. But good additions indeed.

Art Deco in Mexico corresponded to a search for a national identity after the consolidation of the revolution. Although other countries took aesthetic elements such as those of the Egyptian pyramids, Mexico had its own pyramids and from there a new style emerged that characterized the time. Art Deco in Mexico was, as in the Germany of its time, a plastic discourse of the state.

I always associate Art deco with the game Bioshock & in some ways Fallout. Very cool style.

Art Nouveau inspired Art Deco. There are a lot of examples in France, Belgium and Britain with cross overs. The USA made Art Deco look much more rigid and industrial and then it went a bit more Spanish, in the likes of Anthony Gaudi curved lines.

When WWII began, the Île de France was impounded in New York where she had arrived. The ship was converted into a troop ship. In January of 1944, my father crossed the Atlantic on her to prepare for the Normandy invasion. The Île de France is a way sums up what happened to Art Deco when it encountered the rationing, privations, and austerity of WWII.

I live in Detroit and we have some fantastic examples of Art deco in the form of the Fisher Building and the Guardian Building on top of many, many lesser known examples.

The beauty of Art Deco was their vison for modernism, but they melded it with elegance and total class. Sorry, but today's architects and designers don't have the imagination and the sophistication that they had in the Art Deco and moderne periods. The modern buildings today look like the come out of an assembly line. They are dull and so minimalist that it's so lifeless. Art Deco was a positive optimistic vison and a burst of celebration for looking to the future. If you observe many, many things that came out of the Art Deco period, they were ahead of their time. BTW, I subscribed to this channel! What an awesome channel this is on KZitem! Its a valuable tool to educate the viewer and engage the viewer to have within a short yet precise time!

In the case of monuments, Christ the Redeemer is Art-Déco inspired, too
