Miami

The Art Deco movement, characterized by geometric shapes, bold colors, and intricate details, was popular in architecture, fashion, and art. However, Miami's Art Deco style has distinct features that set it apart from other cities.
One of the most noticeable differences in Miami's Art Deco is the use of pastel colors. The city's architecture is adorned with soft shades of pink, blue, yellow, and green, creating a tropical and vibrant atmosphere. Using neon lights also adds to the unique character of Miami's Art Deco. Neon lights were popular in the 1930s and were used to attract attention to buildings and signs.

Another notable aspect of Miami's Art Deco is the influence of the city's Latin American culture. The Cuban community embraced the movement in the 1940s and 1950s, and the style evolved to incorporate elements of Latin American art and design.
