German physicist and one of the founding fathers of Quantum Theory, Max Planck, said that “all matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force which brings the particles of an atom to vibration which holds the atom together. We must assume behind this force is the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind. This mind is the matrix of all matter.“

1914 - 1939.
Art Deco began in 1914 at the decline of the Art Nouveau period and continued in popularity between the two world wars its influence ended in 1939 when most people’s lives were driven into turmoil by the Second World War. The decadence of the times was slowed down by a shortage of manpower to contribute to the lavish life-styles of the rich and a more austere period began.
