This song has absolutely nothing to do with today’s post. It’s just that I have been humming this song since morning and I HAD to get it out of my system by singing it aloud to you! Phew! Feel better already!
If you have always wanted to have a living room or a sitting area that reflects the rhythm, serenity, vibrancy and ambiance of South East Asia, look no further. I mean do look further…as in look below, for some awesome inspiration that you can easily adapt for your home. And once you are done, let me know…I’ll send over some coconut water or maybe a cuppa chai to go with your new decor!
Wicker furniture is one of the specialties from South East Asia
Use of stone to bring in a touch of ‘raw’ to an otherwise contemporary straight line room
Fuchsia dominates, with a modern oriental work of art
The simplest of furniture in front of a beautifully panelled wall
Very zen. And very contemporary. Subtle touches like the reclining Buddha, lamps and tropical foliage add to the look
Traditional furniture restored. I think the piece on the left is known as the Java bed..
Comfortable planter lounge chairs, intricate screen/room divider, and a traditional roof
Notice the different forms of Ikat in the pillow covers design
The sitting area is towards the left of these gorgeous stairs
I can feel the warmth of the room, and hear the laughter of friends and family in this room..
Another traditional form of furniture in a more straight line design. You climb up and sit cross legged on the floor cushions
Old benches restored for modern use
Great inspiration on how to transform one wall or a corner of a room for that South East Asian look and feel
All these images are from different villas of Bali (Indonesia).
Whoops! My favorite too acligurl 🙂

I can hear you humming the song Yoli! 🙂
Oh…that’s so sweet Katie! hugs!
Yes Lady Luxie…that is one the good things about south-east asian decor…it is really not that hard to put together. All you need is some key decor elements, the right colors, and maybe an incense stick or two for completing the ambience!
your blog/images always makes me want to travel!

I love that wicker and all those lovely colors!
I’m so happy to see all that color!
