Therefore, the pastoral style strives to show a leisurely, comfortable and natural pastoral life. In the pastoral style, roughness and breakage are allowed, because only in this way can we be closer to nature.

South Asian rural style furniture advocates nature and originality, with rough and primitive natural materials such as aquatic plants, seaweed, wood skin, hemp rope and coconut shell as the main materials, which has the flavor of tropical jungle. Maintain the natural color of natural materials in color, mostly dark colors such as brown, which gives people a simple and simple atmosphere visually; In terms of technology, pay attention to manual technology and reject the spirit of homogenization.

(2) Simple design, humanization and the beauty of combining Chinese and Western.

The design of rural furniture in South Asia has gradually integrated the modern ideas of the West and the traditional culture of Asia. Through the collocation of different materials and colors, the design of South Asian rural furniture has produced more colorful changes while retaining its own characteristics, especially the South Asian rural furniture with China characteristics, which pays attention to the design of detail decoration, and is increasingly welcomed by people. The application of South Asian pastoral furniture in materials also has its own uniqueness. Most South Asian rural furniture is made of two or more different materials. The width, narrow, deep and shallow of rattan and sawdust, rattan and bamboo form an interesting contrast. The mixed use of various weaving techniques makes the furniture work a handmade work of art, and every detail is worth savoring.

(3) Exquisite ornaments set off unique quality.

In the collocation of ornaments, you can often see striking red classic lacquerware in South Asian pastoral style, gold and red facial makeup, metal lighting, such as copper shower lights, and hand-made copper chandeliers with rough texture. These are embellishments with national characteristics, which can make the space exude a strong exotic atmosphere, and at the same time make the space full of Zen, tranquility and project philosophy.

(4) Green plants create a natural paradise.

What can't be missed is that the living space of South Asian pastoral style rooms should be turned into "green space" through greening, such as combining with furniture and furnishings, or making key decorations and corner decorations, and can also be arranged along the window, so that plants can be integrated into the room and a natural, simple and elegant atmosphere can be created. At this time, inviting three or five friends to have tea on the moon really feels like a paradise.

(5) the combination of rough madness and nature

In the pastoral style of South Asia, roughness and breakage are allowed, because only in this way can we get closer to nature. Pastoral materials advocate nature, and bricks, pottery, wood, stone, rattan and bamboo are as natural as possible. In the choice of fabric texture, many natural products such as cotton and hemp are used, which do not need decoration and carving, just in line with the pursuit of pastoral style, and sometimes a woolen wall hanging is hung on the wall, showing mostly pastoral scenery.

The choice and collocation of rural style furniture should not only have the owner's preference, but also not violate the fixed rural style type, otherwise it will appear nondescript and ridiculous.

Korean pastoral style (1) Korean sofa chooses pure solid wood as the skeleton, painted with white paint and padded with flowers and plants, which makes it comfortable and beautiful to sit up. More commonly used is a comprehensive sofa. Sofas like this have no corners, usually two or three people, while the patterns are mainly flowers and plants, and the colors are relatively elegant, coupled with a light wooden coffee table; We should pay special attention to the fact that if the interior decoration is gaudy, some people will be equipped with pure wooden plaid chairs and painted with white paint, which can better reflect the natural harmony of the pastoral style.

(2) Korean pastoral style is often dominated by white, with more wooden furniture. You can choose a chair with a cushion or a chair without a cushion. The paint on the surface of wooden furniture shows wood grain or pure white paint, but it refuses to have complex patterns. At the same time, the fabric pattern of the cushion is also determined according to the overall style. Of course, the choice is mainly flowers and plants, showing the natural feeling of the countryside. When tables and chairs are matched, they are not completely placed according to the rules, which can better reflect a relaxed attitude towards life.

(3) Pink collocation, such elegant colors as pink blue, pink green, pink purple and pink yellow can make ordinary people wear charm. Light beige and light brown with a sense of city are also quite popular. They convey an elegant taste, and this color preference complements the low-key life attitude of Koreans. And the same elegant and warm colors are used in Korean rooms. South Korea is a country that prefers white flag, national flower and traditional dance costumes. Koreans who love white think that white is a pure color and a symbol of romance. Reflected in home life, they highly admire white household items. Except for older people who prefer traditional mahogany furniture, young people prefer pure white furniture. Koreans not only have elegant white tones, but also pay great attention to the quality of details, and will integrate some exquisite European decorative elements into white modern furniture. These decorative details are dotted on the edges of small areas of furniture, like simple wild flowers and slender grass, which are extremely soft and elegant.

(4) The habit of Koreans sitting on the floor is still followed by ordinary people. This life attitude close to nature also makes furniture rich in "low-key" characteristics. In this way, the use of space at home is more compact. Compared with luxurious and flashy European furniture, Korean furniture is like a small jasper, which is very suitable for Asian figure. In the living room, the height of the sofa and coffee table is mostly close to the ground. Some people don't even have a coffee table, but use trays. The height of the bed in the bedroom is also close to the ground, and the length and width give people the feeling of "just right". Therefore, tatami and natural log floors are also the first choice for interior decoration in Korea.

(5) Korean decoration prefers elegant wallpaper with modern feeling and floral patterns, and curtains and quilt covers with corresponding floral patterns are in harmony with soft white furniture. Because Korean furniture is integrated in design, it is not suitable for complicated European retro style wallpaper. The background color of wallpaper should be light, which is easy to blend in with the overall environment. Korean housewives often have a hobby of collecting all kinds of exquisite tableware. They will be equipped with different styles of tableware according to different dinner themes to show the thoughtfulness of the host. Koreans love flowers, and elegant flower arrangement techniques add points to the feminine and elegant temperament of Korean women. Elegant and warm flowers and romantic themes are the most suitable. Small green plants can appear in any corner of the living room, kitchen and dining room, adding color to the home.

(6) In terms of color, the most important feature is warm color: light orange, tender pink, grass green, sky blue, light purple and light water quality can make your room feel absolutely natural and relaxed. You can choose light wood furniture and decorate it with light green ornaments locally. Such as photo frames, vases, decorative paintings, etc. , can highlight the pastoral theme. When decorating the bedroom, you can choose wallpaper with floral patterns. When decorating pastoral furniture, we must prevent the colors from being "too close". Because both light wood color and green color have yellow components, it is easy to cause the feeling of no color contrast, and the spatial level is therefore blurred. Try to use high brightness green. White porcelain and bright green glass are very useful "refreshing" tools.

(7) Pay attention to the layering of space, and use screens or wooden partitions as separation scales according to the number of people using the house and the degree of privacy. Simple and tough straight lines are often used for space decoration. The practicality of linear decoration in space not only embodies the living requirements of modern people who pursue simple life, but also caters to the restrained and simple design style of Korean home.

(8) Korean space is dominated by dark furniture, and the wall colors are mostly beige and light yellow. Use silk thread, fabric, wallpaper, glass, antique brick, marble, etc. Space consists of classical furniture or modern furniture and classical furniture. With pottery, porcelain, calligraphy and painting, Korean antiques with certain meanings.
