short for 'geometric-glamorous', this is the mid 1970s - mid 1980s luxurious materials + geometric forms design aesthetic, sometimes referred to as decor. bridges the gap between mid-century modern / 1960s lounge styles and the 1980s art deco revival 'deco-luxe' style and the 'contempo-eclectic' style. it can be considered a sub-aesthetic or tied to late-modern architecture. common materials include: glass, mirrored glass, steel, brass, lucite/acrylic, gold, silver, granite, marble, plush carpeting, velvet, leather. tiered forms, angled surfaces, prismatic effects, simple geometric shapes in various compositions, dramatic and even somewhat disorienting spaces. usually paired with plush, comfortable furniture.
