The latest design trend that cannot be ignored is the “New Chinese Style”. It is a refined design trend that reinterprets the ancient aesthetics from the East to fit the modern home environment. This style discards the elaborate and theme-specific room designs and instead pursues the concepts of balance, tranquility, and meticulous integration.

Core Elements of New Chinese Style:

  • The Philosophy of “Less is More”: Unlike the more imposing Traditional Chinese style, New Chinese emphasizes clean lines, uncluttered spaces, and a sense of airiness. Think of the ancient Chinese concept of “留白” (Liúbái)—intentional blank space that allows the beauty of key pieces to breathe.

  • Material Mixology: It beautifully juxtaposes natural traditional materials with modern finishes. Imagine a dark walnut scholar’s desk against a concrete feature wall, a silky embroidered cushion on a minimalist sofa, or a celadon glaze vase illuminated by a sleek, geometric floor lamp.

How to achieve this effect:

Start with a neutral background: Paint the walls in light white, beige, soft gray, or light beige as the base color.


Introduce a signature item as the core: Incorporate a traditional element as the focal point. This could be a traditional embroidered throw pillow, or a Chinese-style chair.


Carefully match details: Add depth through carefully selected decorations: a pair of blue and white porcelain table lamps, a stone art piece from the literati, or a set of books with bamboo bark covers.

    Use natural textures: Incorporate linen, unprocessed silk, worn wood, and stone to add warmth and tactile contrast.

Common mistakes to avoid: Do not overcomplicate. The elegance of the new Chinese style lies in the careful selection of items and the balanced layout of the space.
