Ancestral culture that is always awake to see the still many distinctive buildings in China Oriental, not least in Indonesia. “Oriental characteristic architecture, that in fact is derived from the plains of China, is basically the traditional ornate architectural or ornamental,” explained architect Probo Hindarto.

Examples such as the decoration on the walls, doors, and windows that are based on myths and beliefs Tionghoa nation. Ornament that is diverse, from the geometric ornamentation, motifs of plants, to animals. “If the terms of interior design, Oriental style characterized by the use of wood materials, wallpaper, and red dominant colors, dark brown or gold,” the light interior designer Timothy Iddo Malachi who familiarly called Timmy.

Then, considering the nation of China is a strong cultural preservation wherever they are, Oriental characteristic architecture also appeared in Indonesia of certain elements. For example, a typical roof China, striking colors like red, blue, and yellow, or use the dragon statue as a form of trust is still up in the house of Indonesian society descent.

“Although the merger of these two different architectures (mix of Indonesia and China), usually character Sino management architecture and decoration color is reduced, even most or all lost,” added Probo from Astudio. Similar opinion came from Timmy.

“Processing in interior design, such as only the application of the use of color, interior accessories, furniture, and divider panels.” For example, neutral colors mixed with the colors red kuat.Warna on just one area as an accent wall. Or red color on the pillowcases, carpets, curtains or fabric sofa.

In designing the room nuanced China, what immediately flashed to use the calculation fengsui? “Everything is returned to the owner of the house if necessary to use fengsui or not,” said Timmy.

However, it is better if you use fengsui calculation. This will cause not only of Oriental appearance, but also in spatial arrangement. However, as the modernization of the public mindset, many of which are no longer using fengsui, in some even the entire design office.

“But not often, indigenous uses feng shui to organize the calculation of the house. This shows the influence of Oriental architecture for indigenous communities in Indonesia,” said the Probo steadily. According to Timmy, who never finished the project of Oriental style interior design, this Oriental style is more eternal and easily adapted without having to impress the old.

In addition, this time a lot of cloth or bamboo-patterned wallpaper or a kind of lily flower, peony, lotus and strengthen oriental nuances. “Everything should look proportional not to impress too much.” Given the modern lifestyle in terms of practical importance, adaptation and modification of a typical Oriental style is much better so everything is more simple and hassle of maintenance
