Art Deco as an expression of discreet and functional refinement.One hundred years ago, Paris gave the world one of its most beautiful gifts: Art Deco. Born from the ashes of the Great War, this movement embodied the return of refinement, comfort and beauty to everyday life. Paris, then in the midst of the ‘Roaring Twenties’, became the scene of an artistic renaissance. Workshops were buzzing, architects were inventing new designs, and craftsmen were transforming metal, glass, wood and lacquer into works of art. A whole French art of living emerged, driven by boldness and exceptional craftsmanship.
