Travel Miami, Florida - Art Deco in Miami

Concept, photos, videos, examples, construction



Take a tour of Miami's Art Deco Splendor in Miami, United States -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats. The city of Miami Beach has long been associated with wealth and luxury, in fact, since the 1920s. When Miami Beach was first being born, it was designed in the art deco style. This bright and geometric style actually originates with the ancient Egyptians' ceremonial icons. Americans at the time associated the bizarre style with extravagance, and incorporated it into popular culture. This even influenced how the beach resorts of Miami should look, in order to attract people. So, many of Miami Beach's buildings were shaped in bright colors and sharp lines. The flamboyant style suits the warm air and bright beaches of Florida perfectly.
