Art Deco is a popular design style from the 1920’s and 1930’s characterised by geometric forms, especially evident in the influence cubism had on the Art Deco period. The Art Deco style originated in France, before developing into a major style throughout Western Europe and American in the 1930’s. The distinguishing styles and features of the Art Deco period include simple, clean shapes and colours.
Visual poster artists and graphic artists of the Art Deco period produced posters to advertise everything from cigarettes and alcohol to soap and toothpaste, capturing the stylistic sensibilities of the period.
