At its birth between 1910 and 1914, Art Deco was an explosion of colours, featuring bright and often clashing hues, frequently in floral designs, presented in furniture [[upholstery]], carpets, screens, wallpaper and fabrics. Many colourful works, including chairs and a table by [[Maurice Dufrêne]] and a bright Gobelin carpet by [[Paul Follot]] were presented at the 1912 [[Société des artistes décorateurs|Salon des artistes décorateurs]]. In 1912–1913 designer [[Adrien Karbowsky]] made a floral chair with a parrot design for the hunting lodge of art collector [[Jacques Doucet (fashion designer)|Jacques Doucet]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Bergère - Adrien Karbowsky |url=https://www.musee-orsay.fr/fr/oeuvres/bergere-151537 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220108032535/https://www.musee-orsay.fr/fr/oeuvres/bergere-151537 |archive-date=8 January 2022 |access-date=8 January 2022 |website=www.musee-orsay.fr |publisher=Musee d'Orsay}}</ref> The furniture designers Louis Süe and [[André Mare]] made their first appearance at the 1912 exhibit, under the name of the ''Atelier français'', combining polychromatic fabrics with exotic and expensive materials, including ebony and ivory. After World War I, they became one of the most prominent French interior design firms, producing the furniture for the first-class salons and cabins of the French transatlantic [[ocean liner]]s.{{Sfn|Arwas|1992|pages=51–55}}

The vivid hues of Art Deco came from many sources, including the exotic set designs by [[Léon Bakst]] for the [[Ballets Russes]], which caused a sensation in Paris just before World War I. Some of the colours were inspired by the earlier [[Fauvism]] movement led by [[Henri Matisse]]; others by the [[Orphism (art)|Orphism]] of painters such as [[Sonia Delaunay]];<ref name="Arwas, Russell">{{cite book |last1=Arwas |first1=Victor |url=https://archive.org/details/Art_Deco_by_Victor_Arwas_and_Frank_Russell |title=Art Deco |last2=Russell |first2=Frank |date=1980 |publisher=Harry N.
