ORIENTAL STYLE: INTRODUCTION<\/h2>\n\n

The oriental furnishing style<\/strong> is not unique and homogeneous, as what we Westerners have obtained from the East mixes different traditions and philosophies together. In fact, the oriental style includes Chinese Feng Shui<\/a> philosophy, Japanese Zen<\/a> philosophy and \u201coriental minimalism\u201d.<\/p>\n\n

In addition, several distinguishing features of the various styles come together to give an exotic and spiritual touch to the home.<\/p>\n\n

Furnishing a house in oriental style means giving it a very precise and defined character. In fact, the house thus becomes not only an expression of taste and personality, but also a conduit of the soul and spirit to nature. <\/p>\n\n

Moreover, the Oriental style aims for a balance that is not only outward but is also consequently inward.<\/p>\n\n

In fact, the urge and desire to discover faraway places of the world is an increasingly popular trend in the modern world. The philosophies and way of life of a part of the globe ideally matches the increasingly popular trend of furnishing homes in an oriental style. <\/p>\n\n

And, in addition, the Far East is defined as the entire area including the nations of Asia such as China, Japan, South Korea, Thailand and Burma.<\/p>\n\n

The whole thus connotes, in an elegant fusion of styles vaguely exotic and ethnic in character, a relaxing home environment with a spiritual flavor.<\/p>\n\n

CHARACTERISTICS<\/h4>\n\n

The furnishing style generally recognized as \u201coriental<\/strong>\u201d is, as mentioned, a set of styles that in Eastern countries are quite distinct from each other. Among the styles included in the one commonly called oriental, there are the Japanese style, the Zen<\/a> style, the oriental minimalism, the Feng Shui<\/a>, the Chinese style.<\/p>\n\n

The elements that unite these styles are the materials used and the philosophy that dictates the rules<\/strong>. A philosophy, this one, devoted to the well-being of body and mind, to their beneficial relationship with nature, to the essentiality of furniture, to balance and, above all, to order.<\/p>\n\n

In addition, the visual impact should be harmonious, calm, pleasant, but never aggressive. In fact, functionality is given by the search for essentiality<\/strong>, by the presence of a few elements that are easy to fix and keep in order.<\/p>\n\n

Finally, the distinctive features of the Oriental style can be recognized aesthetically by the colors used, the natural materials, the location of the furniture, and the shapes of the furniture.<\/p>\n\n
