Last week, I was on the Drew Barrymore Show to talk all things Art Deco with Drew. Yes, Art Deco is officially back! Drew asked me to come on the show and break down the main points of the Art Deco trend, and share some affordable ways to get the look. I had such a great time, and I love that Drew has a genuine passion for design. She did an amazing introduction video to the segment that gave viewers an informative and fun overview of the history of Art Deco. I also pulled out my favorite house sweater, check it out here if you want one!
Drew and I talked about how, after years of minimal, neutral interiors, the return of this glamorous and statement-making design trend feels fresh, exciting, and just the right amount of dramatic. We spoke about how Art Deco allows you to add some color and personality into your home through pillows, lighting, and furniture. I transformed an entryway from a bland, neutral space into a wow moment. I couldn’t agree more with Drew when she talked about walking into your hard earned space, your home, you want this pop and wow moment; you want your home to hug you right back. Art Deco can give you that wow moment when entering your home, for sure! So let’s jump in, here is a quick refresher on the main parts of Art Deco, then I share my top budget finds, and you can see my mood board for the show.
What Is Art Deco?
Art Deco is all about luxury, boldness, and craftsmanship. Originating in the 1920s and ’30s, this design style is known for:
- Geometric Patterns & Symmetry – Think scalloped shapes, fan motifs, and structured lines.
Rich Materials – Velvet, brass, marble, and glass create a sophisticated look. - Jewel Tones & Metallic Accents – Deep emerald, sapphire blue, and gold bring warmth and opulence.
- Statement Lighting & Accessories – Sculptural lamps, mirrored furniture, and dramatic wall art define the look.
