Did other art movements influence Art Deco styles?
Art Deco architecture and art is highly influenced by Expressionism, Cubism and Futurism. From each of these art movements, retro Art Deco derived its animated colors, exaggerated forms and untraditional expression.

Where did the term Art Deco originate?
Originally called the Modernistic Style, Art Deco is also known as the depression moderne because buildings built during the Great Depression were often designed in this style. Coined at the 1925 Paris art expo, by the 1970s Art Deco was a widely recognized and frequently used term.

What are some unique characteristics of the Art Deco movement?
Vibrant and intense colors, geometric shapes and a decorated style are the three main components of Art Deco. Although it is highly ornate, retro Art Deco is simultaneously simple and does not incorporate elaborate shapes. There is also a lot of focus on clean lines, symmetry and abstract concepts.

I'd like to get some oversized retro art deco switch plates but don't see them listed. Do you make them?
Yes, we do make large art deco style switch plates but not in all finishes or sizes. Please shop for Oversize Decorative Plates and Decorative Wall Plates in Specialty Sizes if you require telephone jack, narrow, Despard, louvered, push button, low voltage and 7 gang decorative switch plate options.

I have an outlet behind a sofa that I would prefer to cover with just a plain switch plate to match this series. Do you carry those?
Yes, Kyle Design carries more than 300 sizes of switch plates, so just click the switch plate color links to shop for undecorated coordinating covers or to find out more details about any particular metal finish.

We are remodeling our kitchen and installing a mosaic tile back splash. Will we need longer screws to mount the decorative switch plates?
Longer screws are often needed in these applications because the electrical box is mounted behind the deep material and the receptacle is in front of it. Take a quick look at your setup or check with the installer to confirm. We do have extra long screws available for just such installation situations if you should need them.

If I have more questions about the switch plates, where can I go for answers?
Visit Light Switchplates: Sizes and Descriptions for an overview of all configurations, switch plate dimensions and FAQs.

I have a switch plate that was installed on its side (the screw holes are left and right, rather than up and down). Does the retro art deco decorative plate look good installed sideways?
Yes, even though the retro art deco switch plate was designed to be installed vertically, it still looks beautiful installed horizontally.
