BOLD AND VIBRANT COLOURS
Indian design culture is rich in colours. Bold, vibrant colours are the mainstay of traditional Indian design. A traditional Indian look will begin with vibrant walls and furnishings. But, it is easy to go overboard with too much colour. Moderation is advised. Earthy tones like rich browns, ochres and oranges can work wonderfully well on floors and walls. At the other end of the colour wheel are the blues and greens, pinks and yellows. These can be used in small bursts to provide a relief from the warm earthy tones.
DECORATIVE CABINETS
Indian traditional cabinetry has its own distinct design and charm. They are a great example of form meeting function. Not only do they give that traditional Indian look, but they are also functional as practical storage spaces. These cabinets can either be plain with decorative edges and flourishes, or they can be works of art with a bright paint job and inlay work. These can make great accents to liven up a dull corner.
SOLID WOOD FURNITURE
Traditional Indian furniture is the focal point for a traditional Indian look. Sweeping lines and intricate design are the hallmarks of traditional Indian furniture. Included among the wide variety of traditional furniture are footstools, wooden trunks, divans and decorative partitions. These coupled with traditional drapes and covers give off those unmistakable traditional Indian vibes.
TRADITIONAL HAND SPUN FABRICS
India is the land of cotton and khadi. These beautiful hand spun fabrics with time honoured Indian designs and colours can be used in a creative ways. Khadi can make beautiful flowing window drapes and curtains. A simple khadi sheet draped over a divan can create a homely, comfortable feeling. The varied colours and textures offer a feast for the senses. Even fabrics like Jute can be used to embellish smaller footstools or other minor pieces of furniture.
