We like our homes updated and stylish, but it isn’t financially or logistically feasible — or even appealing — to follow every single trend. After all, fads rise and drift away in weeks and months. However, incorporating elements from classic art movements, like Art Deco, into your home creates a look with lasting power.

Art Deco emerged in the Roaring Twenties, post-World War I. The movement was driven by optimism, and appreciation for opulence, progress, modernism and technology. The hallmarks of art deco style include incredible craftsmanship; lush materials; clean, geometric lines; jeweled colors and smooth textures.

Iconic examples of Art Deco style include the Chrysler Building in New York City, paintings by Polish artist Tamara De Lempicka, backgrounds in the musical and movie Wicked™, and settings in the F. Scott Fitzgerald novel The Great Gatsby.

If your pocketbook doesn’t include a Jay Gatsby budget, you can still enjoy Art Deco style! Here’s how:

Timeless appeal

The clean, bold lines and symmetrical patterns of Art Deco are structured, which feels modern and sophisticated. Rich, dramatic colors like black, emerald, deep blue and gold stand out but easily integrate into various styles. Use accent pieces to blend Art Deco into your existing décor, like the Lily Garden Mini Warmer, a sophisticated piece blooming with vintage charm.

Enchanting accessories

If you’re not ready for a whole room Art Deco overhaul, adding some accents with the style’s distinctive features might up the glamor factor. Opt for items with clean geometric patterns, rich materials like lacquered wood and crystal or metallic surfaces that gleam. Remember, Art Deco is not maximalism. Start with subtle change by adding vases, lamps, trays and crystal serving dishes. These statement pieces breathe new life into a room.

Scentsy embraces the Art Deco aesthetic in our new Wicked™ Collection. The collection is inspired by the set design and visuals from the upcoming film. And, it’s a beautiful way to launch an interior ode to the style with the incredibly detailed Wicked™ – Scentsy Warmer and enchanting Wicked™: Emerald City – Scentsy Bar. The Warmer’s sleek linear features, jeweled accent colors and gold styling are perfectly suited for an accessory that adds incredible fragrance to any space.

Bold color

Deep blues, lush greens and rich golds are part of the Art Deco palette. Easily work these colors into your space with accent pillows, area rugs, throws and even curtains. Then, add a bit of gleam with metallics.

Geometric glamor

Shapes flavor Art Deco style, inspired by Cubist art, early 20^th century painters and sunburst and zigzag patterns. One caveat: Introduce these shapes in small portions, like a sunburst mirror or stained-glass panel. Scentsy’s Crowned in Gold Mini Warmer fits that bill with diamond patterns in a deep green hue, rimmed in gold.

Symmetrical splendor

When decorating your space, focus on creating symmetry — a key aspect of this décor style. Arrange accent pieces in pairs. Choose larger pieces, such as bookcases, sofas and armoires, which have a sleek, symmetrical form.
