Retry Correct Incorrect Although it’s a little hard to define, Art Deco was a distinct architectural style that saw buildings such as the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building adorned with decorative chevrons and ambitious shapes that were built into their designs. According to The History Channel, the Art Deco movement declined in the 1930s due to the Great Depression, which made the tastes of the rich more passé than they would’ve been a decade prior.
