Art Deco Style: The Other American Revolution
Spanning from 1925 to 1939, the art deco tradition permeated American
culture. Art Deco style influenced the designs of everything from fine art
and architecture to fashion and advertising, essentially coming to define
the American lifestyle. Art Deco translated the abstract into the physical,
capturing the essence of America’s pulse, identity, and spirit. Through its
applications, the ordinary became the extraordinary, and everything was an
example of artistic design.
Presenting our Art Deco Molding Collection!
 We
are proud to introduce our exciting Art Deco Molding Collection! Achieving a
timeless look that manages to be both classic and modern is easy with our
art deco inspired crown moldings and baseboard moldings.
One characteristic of the art deco design tradition is in the transcendence
of the ordinary to a level of modern art. We apply this concept to the Art
Deco Molding Collection. Our art deco moldings are not your average molding.
The moldings in this collection are meant to serve a purpose: they are
instrumental elements of design meant to elevate the look and feel of your
home. The moldings are also decorative; our art deco moldings are accents,
gracefully offsetting other key design elements showcased in your decor. The
perfect combination of form and function, our art deco moldings preserve the
values of the tradition they are inspired from.
Each of our art deco moldings features a design consistent with the
application of art deco principles. Multifaceted and eclectic, the art deco
style blends with and complements a range of decors. Art Deco style is a
style of contradictions, uniting the traditional with the contemporary. In a
celebration of extremes, the natural and synthetic, and the symmetrical and
the abstract redefine the concept of balance.
Pre-primed for your convenience, our art deco moldings are ready to accept
the paint treatment of your choice. Whether your preferred palette is bold
and vibrant, or neutral and monochromatic, you will find that our art deco
moldings enrich the look of your decor.
Highly versatile, our art deco moldings are visually striking, yet subdued
enough to be used throughout your home. Art deco design philosophy maintains
that the juxtaposition of contrasting elements results in a counterbalance
that is pleasing to the eye. Customize your home by creating your own
examples of art deco style: combine our art deco crown moldings and art deco
baseboard moldings with chair rail moldings or frieze moldings in a
contrasting style. Your design will be one of visual impact; by adding a
dimension of depth, you will further develop the look and feel of your home.
Our art deco moldings are sold individually, each piece measures 6’6” long.
Constructed from either high density polyurethane or high definition polymer
system (HDPS), all of our art deco moldings are produced with the highest
quality standards. Featuring exceptional durability and ease of
installation, our art deco moldings are designed to withstand even the most
highly trafficked, commercial environments.
 Art Deco is perhaps one of the most widely recognized forms of architecture
amongst Americans. Art Deco is a style that connotes luxury, glamour,
wealth, and a certain retro look that, oddly enough, still seems modern
today. Upon inspection of the moldings featured in this new Art Deco
Collection, it is clear that the clean lines, bold geometry, and smooth
streamlining of the style heavily influenced the design of these moldings.
“Once installed,” explains the designer, “the molding give the room a
classic, modern look that is the virtual framework of the room’s atmosphere.
The moldings from this collection are unsurpassed in versatility; they
coordinate with just about any personal style of decorating a client may have.”
Closer inspection reveals that the various styles and types of molding
available imply an extensive range of options for the homeowner. Crown
moldings, baseboard moldings, and even a cove molding in accurate Art Deco
styles are designs meant to be mixed and matched with each other, or with
other more traditional styles of molding such as carved moldings, friezes,
and even ceiling medallions.
“The design options are endless” she gushes. “Truly, a client can customize
a look for her home that is truly unique. And the finished look is a
polished, well put-together home. Art Deco was originally intended to convey
a posh, luxurious lifestyle. And with these new moldings, and our clients’
personal visions, the spirit of that time is expressed through the finished
project. The completed look is one of timeless elegance, good taste, and
eclectic design. And after all, your home is just another outlet in which
you express your individuality” And then gleefully adds, “That’s why these
moldings are FUN!”
