★ Question: What is the new Chinese style?

As we all know, there are many decoration styles now, among which European, American, modern minimalist and post-modern styles are the most popular, and another is the new Chinese style in recent years. "Just like the international' Chinese style', we China people also like the' Chinese style'." Li Pengfei, designer of Guangxi Shichuang Decoration Engineering Co., Ltd. said.

However, the traditional Chinese style is very particular and rigorous, just like the word "tradition" literally. Traditional Chinese style fully embodies the essence of China culture, such as interior layout, overall line modeling, overall tone and furniture and furnishings modeling. Most of them use Ming and Qing solid wood furniture and plaid sculptures, and then they are matched with dark coarse cloth. It's just that the construction technology of some furnishings needs to refer to traditional handwork. "Pay great attention to the law of symmetry." Li Pengfei believes.

Obviously, in today's era, this style has been difficult to meet the needs of ordinary people, especially complex creation.

Modeling furniture display is very unrealistic. To this end, this "new Chinese style" came into being-as the name implies, the new Chinese style is to remove some old elements from the traditional Chinese style, combine modern elements with traditional elements through the understanding of traditional culture, and combine the aesthetic needs of contemporary people to create a decoration style with traditional charm.

★ Different: the layout, lines and materials are different.

Many people think of Chinese style when they see some specific elements. But under careful taste, there are great differences between traditional Chinese style and new Chinese style. Generally speaking, they are quite different in overall layout, furniture lines and decorative materials.

Different layouts

Because the traditional Chinese style is represented by the classical architecture in China, such as the palace architecture, the traditional Chinese style pays special attention to symmetry, and most rooms adopt symmetrical layout, paying attention to correctness, stability and grandeur. Here, Li Pengfei, the designer of Guangxi Shichuang Decoration Engineering Co., Ltd., gives a case. As can be seen from the picture, this traditional decoration in China uses expensive and hard furniture such as red sandalwood in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the wood has handmade expressions of carving dragons and painting phoenixes; Indoor space is hierarchical, divided by partition windows and screens, and even the ceiling uses the symbol of "Hui" with national characteristics, which shows that it pays special attention to symmetry.

However, the new Chinese style does not stick to the principle of symmetry and breaks this convention in layout. Furniture and furnishings can be scattered to change the dullness of traditional elements.

Different lines

As we all know, all kinds of complicated and exquisite patterns are usually carved on traditional furniture and traditional buildings in China, which is also very common in traditional decoration in China. Therefore, in the traditional decoration of China, most of the furniture we see has twists and turns, fine patterns and exquisiteness.

However, due to the limitations of traditional Chinese furniture in material selection, design and production technology, traditional Chinese furniture is rarely used in the home decoration of ordinary residents. Generally speaking, the new Chinese furniture adopts simple straight lines, which reflects the feeling of simplicity and generosity; On the other hand, the color is soft and neutral, giving people a warm and elegant feeling of returning to nature. The overall lines of the room look smooth,

Fresh and natural.

Different materials

Designer Li Pengfei mentioned that the current new Chinese style mainly starts with materials and soft clothes, so don't use too many traditional Chinese styles.

Solid wood. In fact, it is very complicated for ordinary families to pile up elements like carving dragons and painting phoenixes with complex shapes. Therefore, designers will use some modern materials, such as glass and metal.

Cut and distinguish by symmetry method; The colors are mostly neutral and soft. Modern sofas made of wood and cloth reflect China elements, and curtains and corresponding decorative paintings combine traditional charm with modern comfort.

Some simple techniques

You can create your own "new Chinese style"

The first trick: furniture lines should be concise.

New Chinese furniture can be matched with classical furniture or modern furniture, but it must be noted that its lines should be concise. Modern people pursue simple and quiet life requirements, therefore, furniture should be as simple as possible, so as to make a "new China"

Type "is more practical and modern. From a case provided by Li Pengfei, a designer of Guangxi Shichuang Decoration Engineering Co., Ltd., we can see that in this new Chinese style design, the TV background wall is neutral and light yellow, with lotus paintings and bamboo paintings. At the same time, the TV background wall, gypsum board and ceiling are decorated with simple and tough straight lines, while the sofa is made of modern fabrics, which looks both traditional and modern.

The second measure: the overall color should be unified.

The color of the new Chinese style should reflect a simple, natural and peaceful tone, so the furniture generally adopts dark brown, dark brown and other dark colors. However, if the overall tone is dark, it will produce a feeling of depression, and the color can be adjusted skillfully with the help of lighting. For example, use light colors such as orange and orange to make the dull tone of the whole space fresh and elegant. At the same time, the primary colors of the matching space should be as elegant as possible to alleviate the visual boredom.

The third measure: skillfully decorate with small objects.

Sometimes you will feel that the furniture layout is simple, but it always lacks that smell. In fact, we can decorate it with some small objects. For example, carved decorations, tea sets, paintings and calligraphy works with China charm, or bamboo curtains woven with copper handles and fabrics with strong local flavor. Can play the role of "finishing touch".

The fourth measure: be good at creating a sense of hierarchy.

The new Chinese style pays great attention to the layering of space, and some furnishings with China elements can be used. For example, in some areas where privacy is more important and the line of sight needs to be cut off, screens, Chinese wooden doors, or some simplified Chinese "antique shelves" should be placed for reasonable separation. Through this way of separation, we can show the layering and transparency of Chinese style.
