Art Deco Background

We are taking part in the Art Deco exhibition which will be taking place in Durban. I thought to start this project I have to understand Art Deco first. 
Art Deco was started in the 1920's was a time of huge growth in the arts including architecture, furnature, fashion, furnature and fashion. During  the Art Deco period pieces became much simplier and "purer". The main focus of Art Deco is on symmetrical lines and  geometric shapes.
