MODERN CHINESE INTERIOR DESIGN

A little birdie comes to us from China, showcasing the brilliance that exists in the Chinese interior design industry. Modern Chinese interior designs are evolving and these images are beautiful, because they strike a fine balance by combining tradition and contemporary designs.

Luxury living is being redefined and emphasis is being laid on comfortable living, without compromising on style. These pictures spell sheer style, sophistication and brilliance of design while being modest in their color codes.

These images come to you from 14 YA, a company that works to create sophisticated and chic luxury homes.

Having given our take on Chinese interior designs before, we would definitely like to hear what you think about these pictures.

INSPIRING BATHROOM DESIGN FOR THE SOUL

The bathroom represents so much more than a place to maintain good hygiene. If designed correctly it can provide us with a peaceful private place to unwind from the stressful tension of the day. There are key elements to consider in creating an ambient environment that instantly mellows its company. Below are a few examples of what we thought were well done and beautifully inspiring designs to rejuvenate the soul. No matter your decorating style- lighting, color, temperature, texture, aroma and scale are all factors that create the undeniable warmth of a great bathroom.

Modern glam defines this bathroom where the eggplant color scheme keeps it feminine and warm, and the wallpaper and area rug add textural comfort.

SPREAD MOVIE HOUSE

Last week we gave you the insiders peek on a Hollywood home that actor Ashton Kutcher was interested in. Since then, we received a few queries from readers about whether it was actually the same house as the one featured in a 2009 flick named Spread, starring Ashton Kutcher himself, Anne Heche and Margarita Levieva. In answer to your questions, the featured house was not part of that movie, but we are happy to bring you details of the Spread movie house in this article.

Openhouse, now known to many as ‘the Spread set’, is also located in the Hollywood Hills, and was designed by L.A. based Xten Architecture who were asked to custom build a cantilevered home that would jut out over the hillside, by previous owner Randolph Duke. As a fashion designer and stylist, Duke had the three-bedroom home designed with parties and photo shoots in mind. The 10ft tall retractable glass walls erase boundaries between inside and out, and allow fabulous views over Los Angeles from just about every angle of the home.
