The term styleIt is used regularly and in several fields at the same time, such as the art, the music, the fashion, the linguistics, the computing, among others and is closely linked to design, the shape and appearance of certain things, among which objects and clothing stand out and that as a condition without equanom they respect the same line, they follow the same path, that is, they will not be identical but they keep some likeness that will allow us to recognize them as an integral part of the same style.
For example, to make the matter clearer, in the field of furniture design, there is what is called style furniture, the most characteristic and well-known are those known as Louis XV, which are those that recurrently present a fine, turned design, in which tones such as gold predominate, then, if at one point we see a Louis XV armchair and at another a Louis XV table, that characteristic design and color that allows us to recognize and associate them is what we call style.
And this same situation, of course, is transferred to other areas as we said above.
In art, for example, these characteristics observed by each of the artistic currents and that constitute their style, will be which will allow us to distinguish between one and the other, a baroque creation will obviously have nothing to do with one belonging to the Renaissance and the style that each one respects and follows will be what will allow us to differentiate them.
