Weaving Through Design History: Art Deco

Tada!! :3

So this is actually an idea I’ve been mulling over since I finished designing my fursona. “What if I draw Grill in different art styles based off of design movements?” I figured it would be fun to draw my new character more, it would provide excellent practice to work in several different styles, and I could show off some of my design history knowledge (and help me learn more about each design movement).

Art Deco was an architectural style as well as a design style, which was at its height in popularity in the 1920s and 30s. In design, it was the transition between the highly detailed Art Nouveau movement and the simple, streamlined Modernism that is most common today.

Also, while I mean to mimic the styles each of these pieces focus on, I did NOT mean to rip the color scheme right out of this poster: Poster

Whoops……
