what is decorative arts and how was it developed?

what is the precision of decorative arts?

Decorative arts loosely include furniture, pottery and ceramics, and architecture. In other words, it is the type of art associated with functional objects like buildings, couches, and jars. It does not cover painting, drawing, photograpy, sculpture, or other fine arts that are designed purely for aesthetic purposes and have no purely "practical" function.

Of course, the decorative arts predate the other arts, as mankind learned to make and appreciate useful objects such as delftware and housing long before he learned to make and appreciate purely aesthetic objects. Even early paintings and statues doubtlessly had a "practical" use tied to the spiritual or religious beliefs of the society.

Since "man" first had a two secs to rest between hunting and gathering "he" has been decorating his cave walls, telling stories with surface and decorating his personal weapons and belongings with carving and designs.
What do you do when you're bored? Decorative arts are the same as doodling on a desk, murals on buildings, hospice decorating or museum masters. These things are only different by a matter of degrees. Do you like your art or another stlye from this time or another?
Some of the decorative arts were dictated by belief, or politics, as to what was allowed to be painted,but most of today's are a matter only of personal taste

How can I entreat to Interior Designers?


(we're already on 1stdibs)

Hi! Deliberate on like an interior designer. Where do they look for resources? The Internet is only one tool. You might want to become a member of ASID as well as the pass associations, advertise in the better interior design and antique publications, perhaps get involved with a show like the Armory Show that's held in New York, or become associated with an established unshaken so you are represented in the showrooms, get involved with designer showcases, and list your firm in all resource journals. Hope that this helped a bit. Substantial luck!
