Steampunk vs Art Deco蒸汽朋克（Steampunk） 对比 装饰艺术（Art Deco）
How to tell them apart: the deciding signals, and the exact changes that would turn one into the other. 怎么分清这两个：判别信号，以及一个变成另一个需要的具体改动。
Steampunk蒸汽朋克（Steampunk）
Art Deco装饰艺术（Art Deco）
This is Steampunk because…这是 Steampunk，因为……
This is Steampunk because the materials are industrial-Victorian: burnished brass, copper, riveted leather and visible gears — asymmetrical, mechanical, and sepia-warm rather than gilded-luxury.
这是蒸汽朋克，因为材料是维多利亚工业的：抛光黄铜、铜、铆钉皮革和可见齿轮——不对称、机械感、sepia 暖调，而不是镀金奢华。
It would become Art Deco if…如果……就变成 Art Deco 了
It would become Art Deco if the brass machinery were replaced by mirror symmetry, gold sunburst linework, black lacquer, and jewel-tone luxury ornament — geometry for glamour, not for engineering.
如果黄铜机械被替换成镜像对称、金色放射状线条、黑漆底和宝石色调的奢华装饰——为 glamour 服务而非工程——就变成 Art Deco 了。
