Chinese Interior Design
Chinese inspired interiors display vibrant bold colors and patterns along with ornate furniture and accessories. The furniture pieces tend to be carved wooden designs with hand-painted details and high-gloss lacquered surfaces. It is a fantastic relaxing and cosy look for people who want to bring a little bit of the exotic into their lives. The typical Chinese interior design color pallet makes use of rich and bright colors like blue, yellow or green with red and black as the more popular colors. Red is a prominent color in this Asian style interior design, perhaps because it means good luck in Chinese culture. The red is a bright, rich primary red. Gold plays an important role in Chinese culture and a little bit of gold decoration is a vital part of Chinese color and design.m Other bright colors such as yellow and green are used as accents as well. Colorful paper lanterns are often made in very vibrant colors. Wood tones tend to be dark and rich in color.

Walls and Color
Your walls can be plain but richly colored or patterned with wallpaper. Try to choose a wallpaper pattern with an oriental inspiration, such as oriental lettering, calligraphy, bamboo, flowers, birds or fish. If you feel your home is too small or dark for bright vibrant colors but you still want to get the oriental feel in your room you can try a very pale and neutral background - and create the oriental ambiance with the furniture and accessories.
