In the article Art Déco is presented as an explicitly non-naturalistic style with decorations there being based on geometric shapes. Yet, I don't think it's common to describe Déco as a dystopian style.



All but the last photo demonstrating it in the article look pretty dystopian to me. Especially this one: <https://www.archdaily.com/1005570/from-art-nouveau-to-the-ba...>. And if not dystopian, then at least very inhospitable.
