From Art Nouveau to Bauhaus: How Home Interiors Looked in Popular Art Movements
If you have a difficult time (as I did) differentiating between Art Deco and Art Nouveau, you might enjoy this article I wrote on it. There are at least four key ways to tell the difference: time of creation, curved lines vs. geometrical shapes,  organic vs. machinic themes, and Japanonisme influence.<p><a href="https://onthearts.com/p/art-nouveau-vs-art-deco" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://onthearts.com/p/art-nouveau-vs-art-deco</a><p>I actually prefer Art Nouveau personally and wish there were more buildings that adopted the style. It seems like a good pairing for solarpunk architecture.<p>Otherwise, it’s interesting to me how Bauhaus seems to have aged much worse, probably because it’s more similar to modernism, both of which are origins for the “minimal” aesthetic style that is still prevalent. Looking at an old Art Deco or Art Nouveau building feels like peering into a lost world, while Bauhaus isn’t dramatically different from most of what gets built today.
