DIY Miami Art Deco Wall Art
Miami art deco style is characterised by rectilinear lines and easy geometrical shapes. Another main feature of this style is the use of bright pastel colours. In this project, the geometric and streamlined shapes associated with Art Deco buildings of Miami are taken into consideration, drawn onto a wall, and painted using the Miami palette of tropical bright pastels. The most important lines to emphasise are the horizontals, which should continue around the room in smooth streamlined stripes. Here, we paint a Miami deco wall resembling the top of a Miami art deco building having vertical columns topped off with stepped parapets. To pair with this wall painting, you can also paint the same pattern around doorways or windows. Miami is very style-conscious but fun is also high on the agenda, so use the basic shapes and colours, but feel free to interpret the style in your own way.
