Accent Furniture: Lotus style
Kara Cox -- Home Accents Today, 9/1/2005
Asian-inspired accent furniture remains a style staple with designs incorporating elements of Zen life for a simple, modern look. Clean lines, geometric detailing and glossy lacquered finishes add Eastern influence and maintain respect for ancient style and form. Combined with modern techniques and splashes of color, Asian designs continue to hold their place in popular decor.
