Discover Bucharest Art Deco

Art Deco was born between 1910 and 1914, but it gets the name after the French exhibition called the International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts, which took place in 1925.

The eclectic and sometimes contradictory Art Deco style was heavily influenced by functional industrial design, multi-faceted shapes, cubism and futurism, geometry and technology.

Bucharest has a remarkable Art Deco heritage, and most buildings of this type are located in the central areas of the capital (Magheru, Poland,​​ Victoriei), and they are, as imposing, as beautiful. An example in this sense is the Telephone Palace, built between 1931 and 1933 (the first major modernist building and the first skyscraper structure in Romania).

We invite you to discover together the Art Deco heritage of Bucharest. We will talk about the most interesting and beautiful constructions of this style, symbolism, details; stories about the flourishing interwar period. Everything on a Sunday walking route.
