==Origins== ===New materials and technologies=== New materials and technologies, especially [[reinforced concrete]], were key to the development and appearance of Art Deco. The first concrete house was built in 1853 in the Paris suburbs by François Coignet. In 1877 [[Joseph Monier]] introduced the idea of strengthening the concrete with a mesh of iron rods in a grill pattern. In 1893, [[Auguste Perret]] built the first concrete garage in Paris, then an apartment building, house, then, in 1913, the [[Théâtre des Champs-Élysées]]. The theatre was denounced by one critic as the "Zeppelin of Avenue Montaigne", an alleged Germanic influence, copied from the [[Vienna Secession]]. Thereafter, the majority of Art Deco buildings were made of reinforced concrete, which gave greater freedom of form and less need for reinforcing pillars and columns. Perret was also a pioneer in covering the concrete with [[ceramic tile]]s, both for protection and decoration. The architect [[Le Corbusier]] first learned the uses of reinforced concrete working as a draftsman in Perret's studio.{{sfn|Cabanne|1986|page=225}} Other new technologies that were important to Art Deco were new methods in producing [[plate glass]], which was less expensive and allowed much larger and stronger windows, and for mass-producing [[Aluminium alloy|aluminium]], which was used for building and window frames and later, by Corbusier, [[Warren McArthur]], and others, for lightweight furniture. === Vienna Secession and Wiener Werkstätte (1897–1912) === The architects of the [[Vienna Secession]] (formed 1897), especially [[Josef Hoffmann]], had a notable influence on Art Deco. His [[Stoclet Palace]], in Brussels (1905–1911), was a prototype of the Art Deco style, featuring geometric volumes, symmetry, straight lines, concrete covered with marble plaques, finely-sculpted ornament, and lavish interiors, including mosaic friezes by [[Gustav Klimt]]. Hoffmann was also a founder of the [[Wiener Werkstätte]] (1903–1932), an association of craftsmen and interior designers working in the new style. This became the model for the ''Compagnie des arts français'', created in 1919, which brought together [[André Mare]] and [[Louis Süe]], the first leading French Art Deco designers and decorators.{{sfn|Texier|2019|pp=5–7}} <gallery mode="packed" heights="200px"> File:Secession 2016, Vienna.jpg|[[Secession Building]] in [[Vienna]] by [[Joseph Maria Olbrich]] (1897–98) Penzing (Wien) - Kirche am Steinhof (2).JPG|[[Kirche am Steinhof|Church of St. Leopold]] in Vienna by [[Otto Wagner]] (1903–1907) File:Wien - Österreichische Postsparkasse, Georg-Coch-Platz.JPG|[[Austrian Postal Savings Bank]] in Vienna by Wagner (1904–1912) File:20120923 Brussels PalaisStoclet Hoffmann DSC06725 PtrQs.jpg|[[Stoclet Palace]] in [[Brussels]] by [[Josef Hoffmann]] (1905–1911) File:Bruxelles - Palais Stoclet (6).jpg|Detail of the Stoclet Palace's façade, made of reinforced concrete covered with marble plaques </gallery> ===Society of Decorative Artists (1901–1945)=== The emergence of Art Deco was closely connected with the rise in status of decorative artists, who until late in the 19th century were considered simply artisans. The term {{lang|fr|arts décoratifs}} had been invented in 1875{{citation needed|date=December 2023}}, giving the designers of furniture, textiles, and other decoration official status. The ''Société des artistes décorateurs'' (Society of Decorative Artists), or SAD, was founded in 1901, and decorative artists were given the same rights of authorship as painters and sculptors. A similar movement developed in Italy. The first international exhibition devoted entirely to the decorative arts, the ''[[Prima Esposizione Internazionale d'Arte Decorativa Moderna|Esposizione Internazionale d'Arte Decorativa Moderna]]'', was held in [[Turin]] in 1902. Several new magazines devoted to decorative arts were founded in Paris, including ''Arts et décoration'' and ''L'Art décoratif moderne''. Decorative arts sections were introduced into the annual salons of the ''Sociéte des artistes français'', and later in the {{lang|fr|[[Salon d'Automne]]}}. French nationalism also played a part in the resurgence of decorative arts, as French designers felt challenged by the increasing exports of less expensive German furnishings. In 1911, SAD proposed a major new international exposition of decorative arts in 1912. No copies of old styles would be permitted, only modern works. The exhibit was postponed until 1914; and then, because of the war, until 1925, when it gave its name to the whole family of styles known as "Déco".{{Sfn|Benton|Benton|Wood|2003|pages=165–170}} <gallery mode="packed" heights="200"> File:Art Deco table, chairs, carpet.jpg|Table and chairs by [[Maurice Dufrêne]] and carpet by [[Paul Follot]] at the 1912 [[Société des artistes décorateurs|Salon des artistes décorateurs]] File:‘Lady with Panther’ by George Barbier for Cartier, 1914.jpg|''Lady with Panther'' by [[George Barbier (illustrator)|George Barbier]] for [[Louis Cartier]] (1914).

Other designers, including [[Émile-Jacques Ruhlmann]] and Paul Follot, refused to use mass production, insisting that each piece be made individually.

Previously, [[reinforced concrete]] had been used only for industrial and apartment buildings, Perret had built the first modern reinforced-concrete apartment building in Paris on rue Benjamin Franklin in 1903–04. [[Henri Sauvage]], another important future Art Deco architect, built another in 1904 at 7, rue Trétaigne (1904). From 1908 to 1910, the 21-year-old Le Corbusier worked as a draftsman in Perret's office, learning the techniques of concrete construction. Perret's building had clean rectangular form, geometric decoration and straight lines, the future trademarks of Art Deco. The décor of the theatre was also revolutionary; the [[façade]] was decorated with [[High-relief|high reliefs]] by [[Antoine Bourdelle]], a dome by [[Maurice Denis]], paintings by [[Édouard Vuillard]], and an Art Deco curtain by [[Ker-Xavier Roussel]].
