André and Paul Vera

André and Paul Vera were French brothers who were pioneers of the Art Deco style.

André Vera (1881–1971) was a theoretician on garden design and a town planner. Paul Vera (1882–1957) was a painter and decorator.[1] The Vera brothers collaborated on formal, geometric garden designs in Art Deco style.[2] The brothers joined with other artists to create L'Atalier Français, a cooperative business that borrowed organizational idea from the Wiener Werkstätte. The other members included Louis Süe, Roger de La Fresnaye, André Groult, Gustave Louis Jaulmes (1873–1959) and André Mare (1885–1932).[3]
