Conservatories to go for art deco look?

 
21 February 2011

Art deco is making a comeback in interior design, it has been claimed, which is something that may interest those building conservatories.

Helen Green, author of the Terry's Fabrics interior design blog, noted "streamlined, shiny and comfortable" furniture is the best way forward.

When trying to achieve the minimalist look a few colours help the process along, with these being black teamed with red, green or ash grey.

For those looking for curtains to cover their folding sliding door, velvet or velour options can be used to help make the vision.

"Frosted wine glasses or black marble vases would be in keeping and give your home an authentic art deco look," Ms Green added.

People with conservatories may also want to consider choosing the right lighting, as the expert stated lamps in bronze are commonplace.

Ms Green recently said English elegance is set to make a comeback, a style that may interest those with conservatories.
