Nowadays, maybe you often see that most home and interior designs feature a minimalist and industrial style. These two styles do look simpler and offer a modern impression. However, interior design styles that look luxurious and glamorous still have their fans, you know. One of them is the art deco style that you may already be familiar with.
Have you ever watched the movie The Great Gatsby? It is in this film that the art deco style can be seen. Art deco itself was a design style that was popular in Europe in the 1920s. It was characterized by the use of bold colors, geometric motifs or patterns, and metallic accents that made it look even more luxurious. Even though it looks beautiful, the building that uses the art deco style still thinks about the functional aspect of the room.

Even though it comes from the past, art deco is still very suitable for use in modern times. If you want to try the art deco style, here are some essential elements that are a must-have:
Big Mirror
One of the focal points that can be the center of attention in an art deco-style home is a large mirror. Besides making the room look more comprehensive, a large mirror can also add to the aesthetics of the room. Especially if the large mirror is framed with silver or gold metallic material which makes the art deco atmosphere even thicker.
Patterned Carpets
To decorate the family room or living room, choose an art deco patterned carpet to add a warm impression to the room. Art deco carpet motifs are often found with bold lines and luxurious colors. All you have to do is adjust the colors and motifs according to your taste and color combinations with other furniture.
Luxury Fabrics and Textiles
Another element that is no less important is the selection of fabrics and luxury textiles at home. Luxury here doesn't mean it has to be expensive. You can be smart in choosing colors or materials that display a luxurious impression. For example, the use of velvet cloth with emerald green or maroon.
