Exclusive market sketchbook: Chinois Chic

Styles and trends

Tracy Bulla -- Home Accents Today, 6/1/2009

East meets West with divine inspiration, balancing the sumptuous decadence of the former with the streamlined modernist approach of the latter. Botanicals, bamboo and origami-style pleats mingle with sleek glass and chrome for a delicious sense of drama.

CHAIR Geometric ornamentation defines the Eastlake chair from Currey & Company, crafted of sustainable bamboo ($810). WALLDECOR Cockatoo- and grouse-emblazoned plaques translate nature with kitschy aplomb in Lazy Susan's porcelain designs ($120 each). LAMP Willow Green embosses trailing vines and sumptuous scrolls on the Motka Pot II metal lamp, lending a whisper of intrigue ($175).
