What should the interior look like if you decide to design your home in the oriental style? It should be noted that the eastern style also has its own separate directions, it is mainly Asian (Japan, China) and Arabic (India, Egypt) styles.
Asian minimalism
The eastern style of the Asian direction is inherent in light tones with contrasting bright accents. The main background is white, pale beige, sand, gray, light brown. And individual elements can be bright red, yellow or blue. It should be noted that the inhabitants of the East strictly adhere to the rules for the teachings of Feng Shui, so the selected colors can bear symbolic meaning. For example, red is associated with the environment for decision -making and with luck, and green, yellow and blue are better to use in rooms designed for concentration and reflection. As a finish in the oriental style, natural, natural materials are used. This is a tree, stone, bamboo, coconut fiber.
Japanese or Chinese styles are an abundance of light, space and minimal furniture. For example, a living room in an oriental style can contain just a small rectangular sofa, a low wooden table, a pair of soft benches and a TV. All this will be enough. And in order to make the spirit of the East, it is worth adding only small details – vases with manual painting, figurines, caskets, decorate the walls with ornaments of birds and flowers. The bathroom in the oriental style should not be oversaturated with interior elements. It is better to use rectangular or round shapes, suspended plumbing. Choose a tile with a texture for natural material – fabric, bamboo or paper. These simple rules should be adhered to in the design of the remaining premises of the apartment.
The wealth of the Arab style
The Arab style, as if in contrast to Asian, acts with the abundance of bright colors mixed with each other, vaulted ceilings, lace carvings, and the game of light. A huge role is played by fabrics: carpets on the walls and floors, canopies over the beds, curtains and variegated pillows in the oriental style. In the choice of textiles, you should not dwell on monotony, the color should saturate each element of the interior. For example, curtains in the oriental style can be made of heavy curtain fabrics, with flower jacquard ornament and pattern, and shiny elements may be present. Along the edges of the curtain canvases, fringe or brushes are usually sewn.
Warmth and comfort in the interior will also bring light effects. In addition to the main lighting 
Add to the overall composition table lamps in the oriental style, a variety of sconces and floor lamps. Such an interior should be filled with heavy wooden furniture, possibly even without legs, with upholstered mattresses and pillows. Do not forget about wood carving, so inherent in the Arab style. Patterned screens, partitions, furniture elements will add lightness and sophistication to the general picture.
Whatever directions, Asian or Arabic, you choose, your home or an oriental apartment will always be special, exotic and bright. Let you always be comfortable and warm in such an interior.
