1. Go for traditional wood furniture with elaborate carvings for an elegant oriental ambience. Kick it up a notch with intricate antiques to complete the look.
2. Lacquered and decorated wood panels are aesthetically pleasing and can also function as room dividers.
3. Modern chinese interiors strike a fine balance by combining contemporary and traditional elements. The dark wood furniture and Buddha wall frame creates the perfect harmony of colours and textures against the modern sofa.
4. Enliven the space by utilising vivacious hues as accents in the otherwise calm and neutral setting of the Chinese themed interior.

7. Chinese-themed interiors generally evoke images of soothing tranquillity and peace. Plants perfectly fit into the Chinese themed interiors and are an important element of the decor –blossom, bamboo and bonsai trees would be ideal choices.
8. Opt for rosewood or varying shades of brown furniture with dark finishes.
9. For a lovely contrast with the dark furniture, walls should be painted in light colors such as white, sand or beige. It is best to complement it with wooden flooring.
10. Chinese interior homes are incomplete without wall decorations. Choose from a variety of exquisite calligraphy, paintings and framed art that reflect your style.
