Interior design styles: Oriental-style homes
image

1) A unique fengshui-driven condominium apartment

“I wanted a house with a good blend of Chinese and Western designs, a sort of Chinoiserie chic,” says this homeowner, who is also a fengshui practitioner.

The close working relationship and good communication between homeowner and designer resulted in a unique apartment that harmonises fengshui and interior design principles seamlessly.

2) House Tour: Modern-oriental three-bedroom condo unit with $30,000 renovation

This three-bedroom condominium apartment houses many classical Chinese antiques placed against a contemporary backdrop to create a charming modern-oriental look.

3) House tour: Modernising the Oriental home decor style

A movie set-like vignette is made up of a cluster of Chinese furniture which the homeowner bought in Hong Kong. The bright yellow wall behind contrasts with the dark rosewood furniture in a refreshing interpretation of the oriental style.

4) House Tour: Contemporary-style, orient-inspired condominium loft apartment

The designers of this home combined oriental-inspired European designer pieces and actual antiques in the home.

5) House Tour: Modern Chinese theme for this young couple's home

Overhead timber beams and mirrors were introduced to visually disguise the uneven flooring and structural beams running across above the dining table while adapting the look of a traditional Chinese pavilion.

6) House Tour: Sophisticated oriental style in this penthouse apartment

This 1,991sqf condominium penthouse in Holland Road adopts a “Northern Chinese” style – classy with a touch of bucolic.

The Chinese lacquered vanity counter was adapted from a bookshelf

7) House Tour: Unique home with bold colours and interesting furniture

After 10 years of travelling and collecting, this couple had amassed quite a sum of treasured possessions like vintage, oriental-style decor accessories and art from France, Spain, India, Turkey, China, the UK and Italy.

In the master bedroom, the ornate headboard is actually a screen the husband acquired from Kashmir, and the Suzani (embroidered decorative textile) on the bed is from Uzbekistan, bought in Turkey.

8) Combining feng shui and style in this HDB apartment

While this couple believes in feng shui, they didn't want the home to look too traditionally Chinese. The designer translated his design concept from the couple's auspicious colours and desire for something contemporary.

White saloon-style swinging doors carved with an Oriental motif and a red wall highlight this Chinese fusion theme.

9) A cosy family home with stylish antique accents and resort-like atmosphere

Steering clear of the mainstream wood-and-white Scandinavian design, the homeowners of this 1,800sqf condominium apartment in Joo Chiat went for a rustic, oriental style that reflected their personalities instead.

(Design: I.Poise)

The lady of the house, who is Thai, prefers to shop from antique shops there; her purchases include the decorative vanity mirror and sink cabinet in the bathroom. The family also shopped from local stores with similar styles, such as Taylor B and Woody Antique House.

10) A uniquely Singapore Asian-modern home 

This homeowner has a great eye for antique Chinese furniture, and designed his home to complement the furniture's clean, graceful profiles.
