What is chic ethnic decoration?
It is a mixed decoration, which invites you to travel. It combines authentic objects gleaned during journeys and antique furniture in a spirit of recuperation. From the furnishings to the small decoration through the walls and floors, we invite you to discover the chic ethnic style !
Constantly renewed and reinvented, ethnic chic decoration crosses fashions and eras without ever touching the surface of obsolescence ... Its radiant colors and unusual objects, drawn from the four corners of the globe, create an atmosphere that is both relaxed and sophisticated. We promise you a place where comfort, softness and authenticity dominate.
From Africa to Asia via South America, warm colors, natural materials and ancient objects inspire us... Let's decipher together the codes of ethnic chic style.
The codes of ethnic chic style
Sober and timeless colors
If you opt for a Scandinavian style, choose colors like beige, off-white, brown, khaki ... These tones are highlighted in a room with beautiful natural light, and which therefore has large openings on the outside (large windows, bay windows ...)
Warm and impactful colors
For a decoration of oriental or Indian inspiration, the watchword is color! We dare everything! Red, orange, yellow... Choose a strong shade and decline the decorative objects around its shades!
Noble and natural materials
Let's take a closer look at these natural materials that are back in force on the front of the stage.
Fall for vegetable fiber materials, they bring softness and elegance to your interior. Natural rope, sea rush, abaca, bamboo, or woven rattan ... There is something for everyone!
Braiding and artisanal basketry is the big trend of the moment! Decorators and interior designers are snatching it for its authentic and natural side.
The abaca brings cachet and originality to your interior decoration. It will enjoy as much in an ethnic chic atmosphere as in a loft with a cosmopolitan spirit.
Elaborately woven bamboo by hand can be adorned with natural cowrie shells.
Choose your ethnicity(ies)
The chic ethnic style is inspired by different ethnic groups from the 4 corners of the world. It brings together different styles that each tell a different story. Oriental, African, Asian or Amerindian decoration, to each his style!
Colorful patterns and prints
The goal is to make you travel from your home thanks to traditional motifs from an authentic and ancestral craft. Rounded, geometric or symmetrical shapes... Thinking by wax prints, Turkish kilims, Indian or Berber ethnic motifs. Discover and immerse yourself in the cultures that surround you!
Authentic objects from elsewhere
Easily integrate travel objects into your living space with cachet. This brings to your interior an authentic and original touch. These are pieces with a soul that tell a story! It is imperative to favor artisanal creations made from natural materials for an authentic decoration, which tells us a beautiful story ...
Among our essentials of chic ethnic decoration, you will find, among others: handmade lighting (lamps, chandeliers and wall lamps); a large selection of wall decoration objects such as hooks, tribal masks, mirrors or drapes; an irresistible selection of arts and decorations of the table (placemats, teak trays ...), not to mention our authentic Asian Buddhas (to bring the little Zen touch!)
and a vegetal touch!
A trip to the local nursery or to your horticulturist is a must! To finalize your chic ethnic decoration orient yourself towards ferns, such as the famous monstera deliciosa, or cacti, and why not a plan of aloe vera ... This vegetal touch makes all the difference!
The foundations are laid, we can now walk from room to room to offer you a chic ethnic decoration both exotic and refined.
Zoom on the room
At the bottom of your cozy bed, let yourself be lulled by a subdued light. We offer you an atmosphere conducive to well-being and relaxation. To do this, decorate your relaxation area with a fancy handmade mirror , bet on an imposing wall trophy that will represent the flagship room of your room. To complete the charm of this place, add some handcrafted decorative elements such as an offering box decorated with shells that you can divert into a storage box or a superb ring holder to store your jewelry. Finally, animal statues also have their place! To vary, bet on an object to pose, here we have chosen a crystal lampdiffusing a very soft light, to create a warm and soothing atmosphere!
Focus on the living room
Let's stay sober and elegant, for that nothing very complicated! We mainly rely on furniture of character, namely a leather sofa, wooden furniture and a few touches of metal to give this urban chic side. Add to this living room authentic objects such as hand-woven wall baskets in different colors . You know our passion for decorating the world... We invite you to integrate into your space one of our beautiful handmade African masks. The chic ethnic decoration also goes through the art of the table. Take advantage of tea time to serve your guests a hot drink using an elegant mandala teapot.
Zoom on the bathroom
The decoration is not enough on its own. It is the imposed atmosphere that sets the tone. The importance of the olfactory atmosphere of a place is often underestimated. However, when you enter a room, it is often the perfume that reigns there that participates most in the famous "first impression". Relax in your bathroom enjoying sweet exotic scents! In order to give this space the ethnic chic touch it lacked, we added a hand-woven basket. Forget the basic and unicolored laundry basket, think about to collect your laundry in this superb handmade basket! Difficult to prepare in a bathroom without mirror, again we thought of the decorative object that will brighten up your room. It is a round driftwood mirror. Now make yourself run a nice hot bath and admire the scenery that is offered to you!
Zoom on the outside
The sunny days are coming! It's time to prepare your exterior! A little wilder, here we favor the installation of large green plants deposited in a superb colorful ethnic pot cover . This green space will highlight our artisanal crafts straight from Bali ! Imagine yourself comfortably sitting on your terrace on a summer evening... Let yourself be transported by the gentle chime carried by a light breeze. Decorate your space with decorative objects filled with ethnic charm like this beautiful fancy XXL tiki totem or a more discreet model like this painted wooden pelican .
The finishing touch
After touring some of the house's flagship pieces, we invite you to go further into the chic ethnic theme. As explained above, the olfactory atmosphere of a room takes precedence. No one is a fan of bad fumes, mustiness or the smells of neighbor's kitchen... Some scents fit perfectly into the chic ethnic theme. Burn incense, light a candle or install a perfume diffuser, to make your living space a place dedicated to relaxation and travel.
The importance is to create a pleasant, stimulating olfactory atmosphere that is in symbiosis with the place where it is broadcast.
Remember that the decoration is specific to everyone's tastes. The goal is to feel at home and get away from the routine when you get home.
Neither too much nor too little, the only rule to follow is the harmony of shapes and colors.
Nothing in the world beats the pleasure of being at home.
It's up to you to play now!
