'''Streamline Moderne''' is an international style of [[Art Deco]] architecture and design that emerged in the 1930s. Inspired by [[Aerodynamics|aerodynamic]] design, it emphasized curving forms, long horizontal lines, and sometimes nautical elements. In industrial design, it was used in railroad locomotives, telephones, buses, appliances, and other devices to give the impression of sleekness and modernity.<ref>{{cite news |title=A true example of Streamline Moderne |url= http://www.timesofmalta.com/articles/view/20120906/environment/A-true-example-of-Streamline-Moderne.435799 |date=6 September 2012 |work=Times of Malta |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20160401124136/http://www.timesofmalta.com/articles/view/20120906/environment/A-true-example-of-Streamline-Moderne.435799 |archive-date=1 April 2016}}</ref>

In France, it was called the ''style paquebot'', or "ocean liner style", and was influenced by the design of the luxury ocean liner [[SS Normandie|SS ''Normandie'']], launched in 1932.

==Influences and origins==
{{unreferenced section|date=October 2020}}
As the [[Great Depression]] of the 1930s progressed, Americans saw a new aspect of [[Art Deco]], i.e., streamlining, a concept first conceived by [[industrial design]]ers who stripped Art Deco design of its ornament in favor of the aerodynamic pure-line concept of motion and speed developed from scientific thinking. The cylindrical forms and long horizontal windowing in architecture may also have been influenced by the [[New Objectivity (architecture)|New Objectivity]] artists — a movement connected to the German [[Deutscher Werkbund|Werkbund]] — and by [[Futurist architecture]] of the early 20th century. Examples of this style include the 1923 [[Mossehaus]], the reconstruction of the corner of a Berlin office building in 1923 by [[Erich Mendelsohn]] and [[Richard Neutra]]. The Streamline Moderne was sometimes a reflection of the [[Austerity|austere]] economic times; sharp angles were replaced with simple, aerodynamic curves, and ornament was replaced with smooth [[concrete]] and [[glass]].

The style was the first to incorporate electric light into architectural structure. In the first-class dining room of the [[SS Normandie|SS ''Normandie'']], fitted out 1933–35, twelve tall pillars of [[René Lalique|Lalique]] glass, and 38 columns lit from within illuminated the room. The [[Strand Palace Hotel]] foyer (1930), preserved from demolition by the [[Victoria and Albert Museum]] during 1969, was one of the first uses of internally lit architectural glass, and coincidentally was the first Moderne interior preserved in a [[museum]].

==Architecture==
{{unreferenced section|date=October 2020}}
Streamline Moderne appeared most often in buildings related to transportation and movement, such as bus and train stations, airport terminals, roadside cafes, and port buildings.<ref>Bridge, Nicole. ''Architecture 101'', [[Simon & Schuster]], New York, (2015), page 203.</ref> It had characteristics common with [[modern architecture]], including a horizontal orientation, rounded corners, the use of glass brick walls or porthole windows, flat roofs, chrome-plated hardware, and horizontal grooves or lines in the walls. They were frequently white or in subdued pastel colors.

An example of this style is the Aquatic Park Bathhouse in the [[Aquatic Park Historic District]], in San Francisco. Built beginning in 1936 by the [[Works Progress Administration]], it features the distinctive horizontal lines, classic rounded corners railing and windows of the style, resembling the elements of ship. The interior preserves much of the original decoration and detail, including murals by artist and color theoretician [[Hilaire Hiler]]. The architects were William Mooser Jr. and William Mooser III. It is now the administrative center of Aquatic Park Historic District.<ref>{{Cite web |title=National Park Service: Architecture in the Parks (Aquatic Park) |url=https://www.nps.gov/parkhistory/online_books/harrison/harrison29.htm |access-date=2025-04-03 |website=www.nps.gov}}</ref>

The [[Normandie Hotel]] in [[San Juan, Puerto Rico]], which opened during 1942, is built in the stylized shape of the ocean liner SS ''Normandie'', and displays the ship's original sign. The [[Streamliner#Sterling Streamliner diners|Sterling Streamliner Diners]] in [[New England]] were [[diner]]s designed like streamlined trains.

Another example is [[Hollywood, California]]'s [[Julian Medical Building]], which has been described as a "landmark",<ref name=NRHP_hollywood>{{Cite web |title=Hollywood Boulevard Commercial and Entertainment District |url=https://npgallery.nps.gov/GetAsset/236d3254-47ee-4b31-9045-c2999cc465f2/ |publisher=[[United States Department of the Interior]] - [[National Park Service]] |date=April 4, 1985 |language=en-US}}</ref> "an architectural masterpiece",<ref name="sociallandmarks">{{Cite web |title=Julian Medical Building |url=https://socallandmarks.com/index.php/2023/03/12/julian-medical-building/ |website=socallandmarks.com |date=March 12, 2023 |language=en-US}}</ref> and "one of the crowning achievements of Streamline Moderne."<ref>{{Cite book |last=Winter |first=Robert |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=WWl29hn0C9gC |title=An Architectural Guidebook to Los Angeles |date=2009 |publisher=[[Gibbs Smith]] |isbn=978-1-4236-0893-6 |page=181 |language=en}}</ref> The building's distinctive features include a rounded [[Moderne architecture|Moderne]] corner, windswept tower, and pylon-separated horizontally-reinforced windows.<ref name=NRHP_hollywood/><ref name="hmdb">{{Cite web |title=Owl Drug/Julian Medical - Hollywood Historic Site|url=https://www.hmdb.org/m.asp?m=231861 |publisher=[[Hollywood Chamber of Commerce]] |accessdate=July 4, 2024 |language=en-US}}</ref>

Although Streamline Moderne houses are less common than streamline commercial buildings, residences do exist. The [[Lydecker House]] in [[Los Angeles]], built by [[Lydecker brothers|Howard Lydecker]], is an example of Streamline Moderne design in residential architecture. In tract development, elements of the style were sometimes used as a variation in postwar [[Terraced house|row housing]] in San Francisco's [[Sunset District, San Francisco|Sunset District]].

==Paquebot style==
<!---Paquebot style redirects here.--->
In France, the style was called ''Paquebot'', meaning [[ocean liner]]. The French version was inspired by the launch of the ocean liner ''[[SS Normandie|Normandie]]'' in 1935, which featured an Art Deco dining room with columns of [[Lalique]] crystal. Buildings using variants of the style appeared in Belgium and in Paris, notably in a building at 3 boulevard Victor in the [[15th arrondissement]], by the architect [[Pierre Patout]]. He was one of the founders of the Art Deco style. He designed the entrance to the Pavilion of a Collector at the 1925 Exposition of Decorative Arts, the birthplace of the style. He was also the designer of the interiors of three ocean liners, the ''[[SS Île de France|Ile-de-France]]'' (1926), the ''[[SS L'Atlantique|L'Atlantique]]'' (1930), and the ''[[SS Normandie|Normandie]]'' (1935).<ref>Oudin, Bernard. ''Dictionnaire des Architectes'', Sechiers, Paris, (1994), (in French), page 372.</ref> Patout's building on Avenue Victor lacked the curving lines of the American version of the style, but it had a narrow "bow" at one end, where the site was narrow, long balconies like the decks of a ship, and a row of projections like smokestacks on the roof. Another 1935 Paris apartment building at 1 Avenue Paul Doumer in the [[16th arrondissement]] had a series of terraces modelled after the decks of an ocean liner.<ref>{{citation | first = Simon | last = Texier |  title = Paris Panorama of Architecture | publisher = Parigramme | date = 2012 | page = 142 | isbn = 9782840966678 }}</ref>

The [[Flagey Building]] was built on the [[Place Eugène Flagey]] in [[Ixelles]] (Brussels), Belgium, in 1938, in the ''paquebot'' style,<ref>{{cite web | title=Le Flagey - Découvrez Bruxelles en musique | website=Bruxelles ma Belle | date=16 November 2015 | url=https://www.bruxellesmabelle.net/lieux/le-flagey/ | language=fr | access-date=9 May 2021}}</ref> and has been nicknamed "Packet Boat"<ref name=svr>{{cite web | title=New course for packet boat | website=SVR-Architects | date=14 July 2002 | url=https://www.svr-architects.eu/new-course-for-packet-boat/?lang=en | access-date=9 May 2021 | archive-date=8 January 2022 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220108101328/https://www.svr-architects.eu/new-course-for-packet-boat/?lang=en | url-status=dead }}</ref> or "paquebot".<ref>{{cite web | title=Februari 2017: Flagey architectuurwandeling en pianoconcert | website=Antwerpencultuurstad | date=17 February 2017 | url=https://www.antwerpencultuurstad.be/februari-2017-flagey-architectuurwandeling-en-pianoconcert/ | language=nl | access-date=9 May 2021}}</ref> It was designed by {{ill|Joseph Diongre|fr}}, and selected as the winning design in an architectural competition<ref name=flageybuilding>{{cite web | title=The Flagey Building | website=Flagey  | url=https://www.flagey.be/en/page/3718-the-flagey-building | access-date=8 May 2021}}</ref> to create a building to house the former headquarters of the Belgian National Institute of Radio Broadcasting (INR/NIR).<ref name=jazz>{{cite web | title=Flagey | website=jazz.brussels | url=https://jazz.brussels/en/hotspot/flagey | access-date=9 May 2021 | archive-date=9 May 2021 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210509040149/https://jazz.brussels/en/hotspot/flagey | url-status=dead }}</ref> The building was extensively renovated, and in 2002, it reopened as a [[cultural centre]] known as Le Flagey.<ref name=flageybuilding/><ref>{{cite web | title=Flagey N.V. | website=SVR-Architects | date=17 October 2002 | url=https://www.svr-architects.eu/project/flagey-n-v/?lang=en | access-date=9 May 2021}}</ref>

==Automobiles==
{{further|Streamliner#Automobiles|topic=streamlined automobiles}}
The defining event for streamline moderne design in the United States was the 1933–34 [[Century of Progress|Chicago World's Fair]], which introduced the style to the general public. The new automobiles adapted the smooth lines of ocean liners and airships, giving the impression of efficiency, dynamism, and speed. The grills and windshields tilted backwards, cars sat lower and wider, and they featured smooth curves and horizontal speed lines. Examples include the 1934 [[Chrysler Airflow]] and the 1934 [[Studebaker Land Cruiser]]. The cars also featured new materials, including [[bakelite]] plastic, [[formica (plastic)|formica]], Vitrolight opaque glass, [[stainless steel]], and [[Vitreous enamel|enamel]], which gave the appearance of newness and sleekness.<ref>McCourt, Mark, "When Art Deco is Really Streamline Moderne", Hemmings Daily, 29 May 2014</ref>

Other later examples include the 1950 [[Nash Ambassador]] "Airflyte" sedan with its distinctive low fender lines, as well as [[Hudson Motor Car Company|Hudson]]'s postwar cars, such as the [[Hudson Commodore|Commodore]],<ref name="Hudson Commodore">{{cite web |title=1948 Hudson Models – Tech Pages Article |url=http://wildaboutcarsonline.com/cgi-bin/pub9990262549620.cgi?itemid=9990480952247&action=viewad&categoryid=9900468971914 |website=Auto History Preservation Society |access-date=February 14, 2018 |archive-date=July 11, 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210711124113/http://wildaboutcarsonline.com/cgi-bin/pub9990262549620.cgi?itemid=9990480952247&action=viewad&categoryid=9900468971914 |url-status=dead }}</ref> that "were distinctive streamliners—ponderous, massive automobiles with a style all their own".<ref>{{Reed-Streamline era|p=278}}</ref>

==Industrial design==
Streamline style can be contrasted with [[Functionalism (architecture)|functionalism]], which was a leading design style in Europe at the same time. One reason for the simple designs in functionalism was to lower the production costs of the items, making them affordable to the large European working class.<ref>{{cite web|first=Trine |last=Nickelsen |title=Aluminium – en kulturhistorie |url= http://www.apollon.uio.no/artikler/2010/aluminium.html |date=15 June 2010|language=no |publisher=Apollon |access-date=17 February 2015}}</ref> Streamlining and functionalism represent two different schools in modernistic [[industrial design]].
