Oriental touches and elements are excellent to achieve balance and calming feeling in a modern design. Here, we have a perfect balance of the modern western style, and the oriental spirit of the east.
The oriental elements are subtle, and they are not the dominating theme. Instead, oriental elements are added through the texture of the wall, the doors, and the huge mirror in the living room.
Aside from that, the essence of the apartment is done in a modern style with bright, neutral and pale colors. The choice of colors is essential for achieving balance, since oriental touches can sometimes be overwhelming with colors not suitable for modern design.
Here, however, both styles have done some compromises and the result is stunning.
Even when there is not much room for oriental touches, as in the case of the bedroom, the designer has done everything to add at least some subtle elements. In the bedroom, those elements are the door handles.
