Neo-Deco is back — but not the way you think.
Not Gatsby.
Not theme-y.
Not overdone.
Refined geometry. Sculptural lighting. Curves with discipline. Materials that whisper luxury instead of shouting it.
Sunset Magazine tapped us to weigh in on how Neo-Deco is evolving — and here’s what I love about this shift:
It’s not maximalism.
It’s controlled glamour.
As a builder’s designer, this is where it gets exciting. Because Neo-Deco isn’t about excess… it’s about intentional moments. A powder bath that stuns. A bar that feels cinematic. A fireplace with architectural authority.
This is how you create memorability in a spec home without blowing the budget.
And that’s the difference between trendy… and strategic.
Neo-Deco done right?
It sells.
