A beautiful Asian style in interior design
The Asian style comes mainly from rural China
Traditional Asian Zen philosophy is inspired by the simple and natural essence found in architecture and minimalist style. Line, shape, space, light, and material are just some of the central elements of this popular design aesthetic. Sometimes called Oriental design, it depicts the culture of Japan, China, Vietnam, Thailand, and other prominent Eastern societies.
Mostly Asian style is a combination of two or more cultural influences. The lack of non-essential interior walls to open up the space and allow an organic flow between the interior and exterior of the structure is highly valued in Asian style. Namely, this authentic style is slowly finding its way into contemporary interior design, because Asian inspirational decor radiates a special kind of peace and quiet that is increasingly sought after.
The Asian style comes mainly from rural China, by farmers who had to understand nature and give it the best chance. This is why Asian culture has great respect for nature. So, their opinion is that the best way to connect with the natural world is to bring it into your indoor space. Adding traditional Japanese plants, such as bonsai and bamboo, will bring a Japanese cultural touch to your home. Japanese houses bring nature indoors and through large and wide windows that allow a view of nature from all angles, while water features are also inevitable.

Bright colors prevail in the interior, making the objects look much larger and fresher. Small accessories and decorative objects were chosen according to another important aesthetic principle called 'Iugen', which in translation would mean 'deep beauty of the elements'. Adding natural wood to your home is also a good way to be in tune with nature, which is why walls, doors, grilles, and frames are most often built from it.
The so-called Feng Shui is practiced in many Asian countries. This Asian living room is a testament to the minimalist approach of Zen culture in creating a space that uses natural light, materials, and negative space to allow energy to flow through it. Due to the high cost of housing, it is necessary to keep every centimeter of space, so unlike doors, the Asian style prefers sliding doors, saving the space that would be occupied by the default opening mechanism. Bare essential furniture helps keep the living space from feeling cluttered, leaving the beauty of its wood and its white elements to reflect and bounce off the natural light.
