C’est Chic: Chinoiserie

Used to describe the artistic style of China, Chinoiserie has been a staple in classic interiors for centuries. Motifs such as birds, trees, pagodas, and flowers grace walls, windows, furnishings and accessories. Just a touch of Chinoiserie goes a long way with vivid scenes which create movement within a space. Here are a few of our favorite rooms with a Chinese influence.

The combination of new and old gives a well-traveled eclectic touch to this home office. Modern furnishings play nicely off a pale blue Chinoiserie-style wallpaper.

A touch of Chinoiserie at the fireplace is a nice contrast with the blue mantel and walls—unexpected, but so lovely.

This gorgeous powder room carries the Chinoiserie look throughout the space. From a nature motif on the walls to a hand painted vanity cabinet, the look gives us quite a few interior design ideas of our own.

Modern furnishings get a touch of the Orient in this fabulous design . The bird motif on the walls adds movement to the space.

A luxurious dressing room is finished beautifully by a Chinoiserie wallpaper with metallic accents.

Floor to ceiling Chinoiserie makes a big impact in this guest bedroom design. The pagoda print wallpaper envelopes the space for a cozy feel.

A Chinoiserie print looks lovely on this classic chair. The movement of the fabric is softened by pale pink and chocolate accents.
