Art Deco Decorative Patterns in Full Color by Christian Stoll

Art Deco Decorative Patterns in Full Color by Christian Stoll

Derived from various avant-garde painting styles of the early twentieth century, the Art Deco movement comprised a mix of Cubism, abstraction, distortion, and simplification. Geometric shapes and vibrant colors were popular elements of this sophisticated style of ornamentation that found expression in architecture and the applied arts.
This collection of sensuous, bold and exotic motifs, reprinted from a rare 1910 portfolio, contains a wealth of arresting Art Deco wallpaper patterns. 160 striking, royalty-free designs--a must-have collection for designers and craftworkers--depict a breathtaking array of florals, geometrics, and abstract designs, all stunning in their presentation and elegant in their simplicity.

Christian Stoll Studios of Leipzig provided a reliable source of graphic design during the height of the Art Nouveau movement and into the early days of Art Deco. Three of Stoll's designers are responsible for the majority of works in this volume: Richard Kü¾˜¶˜¼hnel, Hugo Sachs, and Josef Pilters.
