Cara Saven Wall Design: An Ode to Chinoiserie

From the fashion runways of Gucci to The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s celebrations of Eastern design, chinoiserie has been popping up in interesting and unconventional ways over the past few seasons. Rightfully so, it continues to gain international appeal, making its way into the world of interior design with a modern Oriental twist.

Flying South

It may seem like a new trend but chinoiserie (pronounced sheen-waz-er-ee) is actually one rich in Oriental heritage and based on the ancient decorative traditions of China and East Asia from the 18^th Century. Characterized by whimsical contrasts of oriental patterns and fanciful imagery, this style is continually being reinvented and today we see it gracing modern interiors with beautiful Chinese motifs, techniques and colours taking centre stage.

Cara Saven Wall Design are quick to set the trend locally with a new range of bespoke wallpapers with an oriental twist to bring a touch of chinoiserie sophistication to your interiors. The result is a selection of beautifully elaborate wallpaper designs in bright shades and mesmerising patterns to complement your interiors, bringing an oriental influence to your space – the launch of which is perfectly timed in celebration of the Chinese New Year.

Pheasant Feast

Here we share some tips for incorporating this age-old look into your modern design scheme:

Add a striking chinoiserie wallpaper to a modern black kitchen or bathroom, complete with trending matte black finishes and a streamlined look. The bright shades and fanciful imagery of the wallpaper will pop against the darker tones of the room.
Create a layered, cosmopolitan feel and simultaneously celebrate your love of travel with the beautiful Delhi Travels Interior wallpaper by Cara Saven Wall Design. The elaborate print and rich shades will instantly transport you to a place of exotic exploration.
Add hints of bright accent décor to complement a beautiful chinoiserie wallpaper design such as Cara Saven Wall Design’s Peacocks at Play or Hope Springs Interior wallpapers. Think cerise, aquamarine or canary yellow accents in scatters, soft furnishings or ceramics to create a harmonious look.
