The new years brings a new spirit in changing for the better
including arranging your home. This has been the case for interior
designer, Yuni Jie who creates a blend of interior using modern style
with Chinese decorative ornaments that have the world immerse in its
subtle style. Her creation on an apartment can give us inspiration to
create our own.
The oriental style interior can be associated with decorative
carvings, intricate motif design and dominant red colour as well as
gold. With the change of time, the basis of design has changed as
well.
Among the elements the shapes and details are simplified, the use of
contrasting colours and more traditional Chinese accessories are
displayed. However different the new style come to be, interior
designer must create a state of balance, order and harmony to the
interior spaces. This is what Yuni Jie have conceived in the design
of an apartment with 360 sqm of space located in South Jakarta.
When entering the apartment, the foyer complete with a built-in seat
and arrangement of nyatoh wood panel cover the wall, looks welcoming.
To alleviate the intensity of the lighting on this transitional room,
Yuni creates a gradation of brownish tone on the wall and wood panels
in order to make a more relaxed atmosphere. As an accent in the room,
she chooses red cinnamon paint for the wall and complemented with
various accessories with the same tone such as the pillow cushions and
the desk lamp.
Moving on from the foyer, we will find a multifunction room that is
filled with a set of table and bamboo chairs. The set is arranged
adjacent to the family sitting area. Yuni plans the room to resemble a
tearoom in a traditional Chinese home yet with a more modern function
as an informal sitting area. Inspired by the shape of classic
furniture from the Ming Dynasty era (1368-1644), minimalist vertical
lines, geometrical cubes and dark tone wood finish are applied to
create a modern yet oriental nuance. This adoption of style exposes
the simple shape of classic Chinese furniture just perfect for this
modern interior. The red fabric used is meant to create an accent in
the room.

Traditional crafts from the bamboo country arranged on the table
enhance the oriental nuance. For example a set of teapots made from
clay, a pair of calligraphy paintings, a basket made of bamboo and
boxes of wood in lacquer finish give that strong oriental look.
Additionally, Yuni also designed a pair of credenza with the detailing
to adopt a geometrical cube typical of classic Chinese style. A pair
of sitting lamp made from red silk fabric reminds us of lampion (paper
lantern) in a more modern sense. As a divider in the room, a
transparent permanent partition built from the floor to the ceiling
therefore still giving an unobtrusive view of the interior.
Inspired by partition in craved latticework, Yuni also applies
geometrical lines and cubical shapes in a more simplified design to
become a divider. The composition of lines and the beauty of wood
veins are an eye-catcher. To give a sense of comfort on the sitting
area of the family room, the sofa are arranged with pillows with hand-
made fabric from China in red-yellow colour with a symbolic Chinese
character.
The d=E9cor on a the wall at the dining room uses half wallpaper and the
other wood panels. The terracotta colour of the wallpaper looks
harmonious next to the dominant wood panels on this room. As a
decorative element, every panel is made in square wood and bamboo.
Other furnishing is the low credenza that uses a Chinese coin-like
shape handles to blend with the oriental nuance. The table lamp
inspired from art deco era in green-yellowish tone makes the room
appear elegant. For the bedroom and study room Yuni exposes the
furniture and...
