What is "Rococo"?
Rococo is a style of art, architecture, and furniture that originated in France in the early 18th century. It is characterized by ornate details, elaborate decorations, and playful themes, often featuring curves, asymmetry, and light colors, along with motifs from nature, such as shells and flowers. Rococo architecture emphasizes decorative elements, including moldings and painted wall art, while elegant furniture adds to the luxurious atmosphere. The overall effect is whimsical and inviting, contrasting with the more formal styles that preceded it. Rococo aims to create visually rich spaces that evoke a sense of joy and delight.
