Sophistication. Luxury. Sleek geometrics. 1920’s interiors were ornate, elegant and glamorous. Interior design had become a recognized profession. Parisian Art Deco was a major influence. Metallics made everything shine, and jewel tones added sparkle.
My first rendition had the detail at every junction of squares. In the second version, I opened it up, to emphasize the diamond formed in the design. I had a hard time choosing between the gold and the indigo diamond for my entry. I prefer the indigo. I think it is stronger. The gold fits the design brief and that is my entry. Voting is open now until the 15th.
Say, it’s only a paper moon
Sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn’t be make-believe
If you believed in me
Yes, it’s only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldn’t be make-believe
If you believed in me
Paper Moon. Music by Harold Arlen, lyrics by Yip Harburg & Billy Rose
I think this design would work well in many colors. I tried softer tones here. What colors do you think would work? I’d really like to know. I will be adding more variations to my design library. Let me know in the comments. ;o)

Thanks so much Dotty 🙂
I have to say that I am glad I didn’t live in the 20’s as I would have hated their wallpaper. Actually, I don’t like wall paper at all although we had some fun stuff for the kitchen when we first got married. Good luck with this challenge. I like the red and gold best btw.
Too busy, right Val? I’m not overly fond of the metallics.
Thanks for letting me know which you liked best. Good to know.
Happy creating, Val! 🙂
