Art Deco Lettering in the spirit of the Roaring Twenties
Art Deco Lettering in the spirit of the Roaring Twenties - a workshop with Els Van Den Steen (Saturday 4th May, 2024)
The geometric, pared down Art Deco style, reflecting the modern age of industrial power, confidence and optimism, flourished in Europe and in the United States during the 1920s and 1930s. This workshop is an introduction to Art Deco Lettering and Design from this era. Art Deco Capitals, based on the circle and the straight line, are highly legible and create a stylish impression. These streamlined letters are written with mono-line writing tools which makes them straightforward and fun to write.
