Between Art Deco and the Interwar period - The Art Deco is an eclectic artistic and design style born in Paris in the early decades of the 20th century. Emerging in the 1920s, it lasted until after the Second World War. The term "Art Deco" was widely used for the first time after an exhibition in 1966, in reference to the 1925 International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts, which marked the height of the high-end modern style in Paris. Championed by the best decorative arts designers, such as those in fashion and interior decoration, Art Deco influenced all areas of design throughout the 1920s and 1930s, notably architecture and industrial design, as well as visual arts such as painting, graphic arts, and cinema. At the time, this style was seen as elegant, glamorous, functional, and modern. The Interwar period (1918-1939) is considered, in recent Western culture, as the period between the end of the First World War and the beginning of the Second World War. It is also called the interwar period or the interbellum.

Style specifics:
It is something between Art Deco and the Interwar period.
Abstract motifs and geometric shapes are typical of the Art Deco period. Art Deco moves away from the soft pastels and organic forms of its predecessor, Art Nouveau, and draws inspiration from many early 20th-century styles and movements, including Neoclassicism, Constructivism, Cubism, Modernism, and Futurism. Its popularity peaked in Europe during the Roaring Twenties and continued in the United States until the 1930s. Although many design movements have political or philosophical roots or intentions, Art Deco is purely decorative.
The Interbellum
is the period between the two world wars and can be recognized as a transition from the Art Deco style to the Retro style.
