Art Deco is a visual style that seems to transcend time, especially for graphic artists. It was an art movement that represented the genesis of graphic design. Being the first real commercial form of art, Art Deco designs were particularly noted for their use of typography, and many of the modern sans-serif fonts we use today were born from the Art Deco prints and posters of the ’30s and ’40s.
This tight, clean, and geometrically pleasing typo-style is still celebrated in the magazines, posters, flyers, and prints today, and many modern graphic artists are hugely influenced by the font pioneers of the ’30s.

Hi Chris, just click on the font title.
Just wanted to say thanks for these fonts. I used them to create a beautiful display for my husband’s “Roaring 40’s” birthday party.
You are very talented and creative.
Hi Ashlee, I can’t take credit for this work, it represents the font design of some super talented people. But I’m so glad they were useful to you.
