A BRIEF HISTORY OF ART DECO

There are many different styles from the 20th Century that are incredibly popular, though Art Deco stands out even among these many styles. Originating in France just before World War I, this style really came into its own in the middle of the 20th Century. The freedom of expression that is associated with the Art Deco style leads to a variety of wildly different looks, colours, and uniquely designed desks that leave an impression. This design flourished by uniting a wide array of styles in a way that showed a clear "goal" of being modern. This vague goal results in Art Deco console tables being bold, surprising, and often times creating a memorable and fully functional office or writing desk that also served as a work of art. Able to blend bold colour combinations, geometry-inspired from Cubism, exotic French styles, and a hint of royal European craftsmanship, it's hard denying the combinations available.
