Chinoiserie in 2010

Chinoiserie is a french term meaning "chinese-esque" and refers to a design style characterised by fanciful images of China. The style became popular in Europe during the 17th century reaching its peak in 1750-1765 as it blended well with the Rococo style.


Chinoiserie made an appearance at the London Design Week last week with this gorgeous "Pagoda River" fabric from Sanderson. The fabric is available in four colours but we like this lime and taupe which gives it a contemporary twist.

This fabric would combine well with current furniture and accessories to give an interesting interior with an appreciation of the history of Interior Design.
