Special lighting can be created with paper lanterns. Choose rounded, organic shapes such as those reminiscent of lotus flowers and water lilies, for a meditative air. Mirrors have to be placed strategically [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], according to Feng Shui experts [2]. They enlarge a narrow corridor or fill a blank wall, but can also push you out of the space if not careful. Asians place ‘bagua’ mirrors on their front doors to keep out street energy.
“Persians were the greatest decorative artists of any time…the Chinese come very close to them, their reputation depends largely on the wonderful colors they used.”[1]
Look for accessories that use jade or agate to add richness. Rosewood furniture is sometimes inlaid with mother-of-pearl. Lacquered boxes, folding screens and embroidered curtains are all conspicuously Eastern and if used [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], should be subtle or else be the focal point of your room.
Plants are a beautiful way to add Green to your home and the element of Wood. Most people know of Bonsai, but what about Lucky Bamboo? This special bamboo plant is made of little bamboo shoots all twisted up to give a happy yet artistic effect. What’s more, it is supposed to bring you luck! Tangerine Trees and Money Tree Plants are favorites with Asians. Those with a poetic disposition should try Pussy Willow – perfect for the winter but al
Oriental colors hint of such exotic materials as porcelain, jade and silk. To begin, select a soft white or ivory paint for the walls. Balance with dark-colored wood (like rosewood). Add dashes of vibrancy with royal Red or Yellow. Then balance this with Green – highly favored because of its elegance. A blue-green that looks like jade is gorgeous. Strong colors like Chinese Blue only work if you are confident you can balance it with something softer.

The philosophy is simple: the Cat waves good fortune into your premises. You can buy these Cats in ceramic or plastic, they are very adorable and come in different colors.
Textures to Enrich Surroundings
Like a typical Oriental meal portion, size is of utmost importance. Delicate and petite items are best. Low tables and tiny chairs, pillows and footstools – all these give your guests an immediate feeling of restfulness and a hint of pampering to come.
Old Eastern philosophy depicted as ‘yin-yang’ can work wonders in home d茅cor. When enhancing your home with touches from the Orient, always keep in mind the principles of balance (yin-yang): dark is matched with light, soft is brought to life with vibrant. Orientals pride themselves as being good hosts, and their homes usually reflect this philosophy.

‘Bite-Size’ Your Accessories
Add drama with Chinese calligraphy. Minimalists love a single Chinese character on a square sheet of paper. Did you know the Chinese character ‘Fu’(fortune) is hung upside down in Chinese homes? The Chinese believe that a call for fortune should face the sky (heavens). Chinese couplets are a more unusual choice. The best time to get these is during the Chinese New Year. Couplets should be vertically positioned side by side, usually on a door. When buying them remember they should come as two lines of phrase (photo below).
