Decorative art 1938 - The studio year book
“In the space of a year - that is since the publication of Decorative Art, 1937 - architecture and interior decoration have travelled a little further along the twentieth century’s route, in time precisely twelve months, in style, in aim, in usefulness and beauty a distance which cannot be exactly measured (what, after all, is a year?) but is something we can attempt to forecast or see in relation to a preceding and succeeding year.”
Decorative Art 1938 – The Studio Year Book offers a fascinating snapshot of the evolution of architecture and interior design during the late 1930s. This edition reflects a year of progress along the path of twentieth-century style, exploring shifts in aesthetics, function, and beauty.
More than just a record of trends, it captures the spirit of an era in transition, serving as both a historical reference and a source of inspiration for design enthusiasts, collectors, and historians.
