Art Nouveau


Art Nouveau

is an international movement and style of art , architecture and  applied art—especially the decorative arts —that peaked in popularity at the turn of the 20th century (1890–1905
In architecture, hyperbolas and parabolas in windows, arches, and doors are common and decorative moldings 'grow' into plant-derived forms. Like most design styles, Art Nouveau sought to harmonize its forms. The text above the Paris Metro entrance follows the qualities of the rest of the iron work in the structure.
Art Nouveau in architecture and interior design eschewed the eclectic revival styles of the Victoria era. Though Art Nouveau designers selected and 'modernized' some of the more abstract elements of Rococo style, such as flame and shell textures, they also advocated the use of highly stylized organic forms as a source of inspiration, expanding the 'natural' repertoire to embrace seaweed, grasses, and insects.
