Streamline Moderne is a 20th-century architectural style known for its sleek, aerodynamic design influenced by transportation technologies. It features smooth, curved lines, rounded corners, and a horizontal orientation. Common elements include flat roofs, porthole windows, and nautical-inspired details.

This style was popular for theaters, diners, gas stations, and homes, reflecting a departure from ornate designs in favor of a simplified, futuristic aesthetic.
