Understanding Thai Culture of Design

Written by Pranee Published: Monday, 31 January 2011

The Cultural and Popular Appeal of Thai Decor Design in the modern era has been loosely based on the concepts of individuality, depicting life and lifestyles of people as determined by a designer’s ethos. This has been very much apparent across Western and European designers. Depicting life at the own eyes of the designer can sometimes be very self-indulgent but the key aspect here is creating desire. If you are considering art, then that is another story. Here we are talking about designing desirable products that evoke somehow an artistic reverie that is unique to the individual and his or her experience with culture. Cultural products, very much apparent in modern media and popular culture reiterate how fast and impersonal some things could be. Some consider them as trends. Human appreciation is as short already due to the fact that there are just a surmountable number of cultural products to…

The Sincerity of Thai Décor Trends

Written by Pranee Published: Friday, 28 January 2011

Luxurious Minimalism - Thai Decor Design keeps pushing forward. Trends always come and go but there are some that always resurface every time something revolutionary of amazing comes up. Design is not necessarily recycling itself. It has always been existent. There is something new because there is always a pursuit to go against the grain. When something is new, it feels unattainable but then it falls down on the commercial ladder. The only thing that is left is the classical style and authentic style aspects. Traditional design aspects are very much trendy for this reason. There is nothing pretentious about a traditional interior décor. It feels natural to find a piece that is desirable and stylish but there is also a direction to move forward and find new design facets. This is why eclectic design philosophies have come around in the early parts of the decade but with the new…

The Depth of Thai Décor Trends

Written by Pranee Published: Wednesday, 26 January 2011

Fusion of Aesthetic and Traditional Design The design trends right now are out of the ordinary. They exude the new modernity with surreal shapes, high impact appeal and a forward looking design aesthetic that is uncompromising. Along with that, there are still essential aspects in design that make one feel still grounded in a back story. Though design trends tend to be very modernist and conceptual, the overall interior design trend moves to the individualist side. Many still find the comforts of opulence. Some find the appeal of Bauhaus. Some are more eclectic and wants to experiment with vintage and ultra-modern. Others live for the decadence and unapologetic excess. Others go on further with traditional and cultural aspects. All in all, though there are many modern designs for interior accessories, there is still a wide audience and market for traditional designs. It could be because traditional designs have become too…

The Appeal of Thai Décor Trends Part II

Written by Pranee Published: Monday, 24 January 2011

Ultra Luxury and Inviting Decor There is a bug today in the realm of design and arts. Special looking pieces are coming back, veering away from the cookie cutter designs that are very apparent before. Right now, people are looking for something extra special, something extraordinary and definitely desirable. For home décor, most especially for upscale homeowners, Thai décor is becoming the newest buzz in the realm of design. Sumptuous pieces, desirable designs and earthy appeal gives off a sense of nostalgia, an ultra-luxurious appeal and a sensibility that feels very warm and cozy. Anyone looking for ultra-desirable home décor but still wants the overall look of the home warm and inviting can take advantage of Thai décor. Thai décor is very much popular right now since people are trying to go back to the essence of nature. Thai décor has that kind of vibe that is present in the…

The Appeal of Thai Décor Trends Part I

Written by Pranee Published: Friday, 21 January 2011

Traditional Design and Aesthetics Asian design and taste, like any other design aspects across the world is experiencing a radical change in perspectives. Modern tastes are the dominating aspects of design and this is very prevalent. This can be considered as change. This is a change in perspectives and change due to the increasingly westernized ways of living. Social norms and acceptance of new trends has become the norm of progress. Although it may or may not have an effect on national values, that is out of the question. The important argument here is that even traditional design and aesthetics are also experiencing a radical change in perspectives. Thai décor has become an obsession for the international market along with other exotic Asian designs. The sudden progression towards global appeal is not only due to the increase of promotion, the use of the internet or the luxurious appeal of Thai…

Thai Décor for an Upscale Appeal

Written by Pranee Published: Friday, 21 January 2011

Luxury in Europe and Asia   We all want to experience living a luxurious life, right? We want the most frivolous things in the world and of course we want to get them and achieve elegance. Upscale houses in various places around the world subscribe most of the time to the European idealism of luxury. Those fine paintings, gilded furniture and ornate décor exude an elegance that could sometimes be limiting to the sensibilities most especially of those who like to experiment a bit. This is the very reason why many are going for Asian sensibilities when it comes to selecting home décor. Asian sensibilities are not vulgar or extremely hefty. They are most of the time very versatile, adaptive and modern but with a sensibility that is a bit nostalgic and close to nature. That is the reason why Thai décor and design is subscribed to by many upscale…

Thai Creativity: A Sensory Experience

Written by Pranee Published: Wednesday, 19 January 2011

Art and Design Inspired   Art and design are as diverse as the world itself. There is so much creativity in the world that there is always a place for something revolutionary. It does not have to be global. As long as it makes you feel happy, satisfied and gratified, it will be your personal revolutionary style. Of course, there are some art movements and aesthetics that reach critical mass decade after decade and getting acquainted in these facets help in developing and evolving a definitive style of creating things. Today, modern design has become a hodgepodge of interesting period inspirations, forward looking designs as well as elements based on popular culture. Of course traditional design elements are part of this mixture of diversity and make designing furniture much decadent and desirable. Thai design is still based on traditional methods of craftsmanship, use of materials and inspirations. This makes Thai…

Analyzing Thai Décor Trends

Written by Pranee Published: Monday, 17 January 2011

Components of Design and Trends   Since we are all experiencing a downpour of new things from modern design, sometimes, it is fun to add a little bit of interesting and unexpected twists to modern design. In a world saturated with a hodgepodge of amazing and sometimes passé design aesthetics, it is important to keep on track with the design trends. Interiors are more difficult to handle since it is more about the personal and individual style of the owner rather than just mere trends. Owners seek styles based not only on trends but of the value, longevity and the lasting appeal it will give to the space and in the vintage market in the long run. Some are getting back to collecting vintage furniture but for someone who is a novice in the design world, it is a difficult and extremely expensive venture to go into. That is why…

The Culture of Design

Written by Pranee Published: Friday, 14 January 2011

Thai Craftsmanship Is Always Avant-Garde Nothing more perfectly symbolizes the emotions, philosophies, ideology, religion and overall culture of a nation or a people than the designs used in their homes, their clothing, their transportation, their gardens, and their lives. The people of Thailand have long enjoyed a rich heritage of dually beautiful design styles, vacillating between the simple, earth inspired lines of furniture or pottery, to the more elaborate and intricate complex designs found in their stonework, carvings and fabric arts. While they are steeped in a long, and well-respected tradition of fine work by talented artisans, they are not bogged down in the ancient. This sort of modern outlook on design while continuing to create objects by hand has created a unique design culture where the craftsmanship put into the making of the finished piece is as important as its appearance. We see great examples of this sort of…
