Art Deco装饰艺术（Art Deco）
This is Mid-Century Modern because…这是 Mid-Century Modern，因为……
This is Mid-Century Modern because the geometry is warm and organic — boomerangs, amoebas and starbursts on cream or woodgrain — and the layout is off-center and balanced rather than mirror-symmetrical; the metal is matte brass or walnut, not gilded luxury.
这是中世纪现代风格，因为它的几何形状温暖而有机 —— 奶咖或木纹上的回旋镖、阿米巴和星爆 —— 版面偏置平衡而非镜像对称；金属是哑光黄铜或胡桃木，不是镀金的奢华。
It would become Art Deco if…如果……就变成 Art Deco 了
It would become Art Deco if the palette shifted to black lacquer and gold, the layout locked to a strict vertical mirror axis, and the lettering went all-caps with gilded gradient strokes.
如果色盘变成黑漆与金色，版面锁定在严格的垂直中轴上，字体也改成全大写并加上镀金渐变描边，就变成装饰艺术了。
