Re: Oriental Vogue / Modern Oriental

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!

I just purchased a EM recently and I was thinking having a modern oriental design for my new house.

I'm sick of modern or sleek look as my previous flat is of such design.

Furniture is easy to mix and match, the problem for me, I think, is the wall colour and floor tiles.

Please give me some ideas if any brudders/sistas here have any.

:yamseng:

Thanks alot!

Actually i don't really mind replicas as long as they are nice, I'm not an ang moh though... :P

I will check out the 2 shops you recommend. Now having a hard time trying to visualize what I want and how to mix and match modern with oriental furniture pieces.

I requested my ID to create the ambience of oriental feeling and she is having a tough time due to my low budget. hahaha..

Thanks all who replied to my post. Appreciate it. :dancingqueen:

Its great to hear that you have such lobang for nice oriental stuff. Unfortunately for me I really have to search like crazy to get the best buy. I had consolidated a few places addresses and will start my hunting soon. Getting my keys next Monday. Excited!!! :sport-smiley-004:

My ID proposed using bricked wall to replace the existing staircase railing, don't know how will it look like at this point of time. For the rest of the decor, I'm quite satisfied. We be doing lattices in the living room and kitchen. Really add a touch to the oriental factor.

I'm thinking of getting lightings somewhere next week. Any recommendations what to get and where to get lightings with a touch of oriental?

Thanks!!! :dribble:

got any 3D on the lattices? :dribble: :dribble:

Hi! I'm sorry I do not have any pics on the lattices.

My ID just showed me through the computer during our last meeting.

Not very complicated type coz I'm of low budget... ;)

It will not be what we always see in restaurant or showroom.......

She suggested erecting the lattices near the staircase area, all the way to the ceiling.

As for the kitchen, she be doing a lattice type sliding door, it will be of wood and glass combination.

Cheap but I'm pleased with the design. :)

can i check with you if your ID is fabricating the lattices

or where she got them from if it's outsourced

i'm looking for something like that but more oriental style for bedroom doors

so far no luck :(

Hi!

I believed my ID is fabricating them.

I had looked through the designs you showed me, don't think gonna be cheap if custom make.

Probably look for doors with the designs would be a better idea.

I will be hunting for furniture soon, will keep a lookout for you. :seeya:
