Modern Oriental Interiors
Modern Oriental seems to be the theme everyone is talking about at the moment. So, we thought we’d delve into the oriental interiors ourselves to see what all the hype is about. What we found is that actually, the oriental style is intrinsically linked to the mid century style that we love so much. In fact, as we looked for inspiration to share, we were stumbling across the same pictures that we’ve shared in a mid century theme, just just hadn’t really taken notice of the strong oriental vibes running through them!
Here’s some of the inspiration we’ve share today. Feel free to comment are share other inspiration that you find.

Now this is why I love interiors so much. When something catches your eye and sets you imagination on fire. Fitted wardrobes revamped in this @wallanddeco I can see it now how it would transform a bedroom. Beautiful.

Oriental bathroom
In this shot, the vanity unit style, the gold light fittings, the symmetry and of course the patterns in the rug... it was there all along!
Modern Oriental in architecture
Modern oriental is very present in modern architecture. This shot from @archdaily has some fantastic textures and materials with strong oriental vibes
Mid Century and modern oriental mash up
This wonderful shot from @martynthompsonstudio feed is a classic Mid Century and modern oriental mash up. The paper light shade is the obvious feature, but the more you look, the more you see... the colours are also typically oriental
Tretchikoff's Lady of the Orient
Absolutely love this mural of Tretchikoff's Lady of the Orient from Wayne Hemingway's land of lost content. And this would be a very graceful addition to a modern oriental room. I can see my Macintosh sideboard gracing this wall. @surfaceview
The great wave off Kanagawa
I've always loved this print and it looks fab as a mural wallpaper! Perfect fit for our Modern Oriental theme day. The great wave off Kanagawa available from @muralswallpaper.
Oriental inspiration
This room screams of an oriental inspiration! Yet the furniture is definitely mid century… it just works! My fav here is the yellow chair, closely followed by the awesome 4-part table - stunning!
Kimono
Absolutely love the way the kimono is displayed. Such a fantastic way to add colour to your white walls and this can be easy to achieve in rented accommodation. And those bistro chairs. They are making there way to the forefront of most wanted chair. ?thedesignfiles
