Rattan decor has made a stylish comeback
With textures and intrigue taking the spotlight rattan furniture has swiftly made it one of the top spots in the interior design industry, especially in the luxury segment. It is no more limited to the garden and outdoor furniture options. In fact, it’s one of the hottest living room and bedroom components.
It excites me how creatively furniture designers are creating some beautiful pieces. I too have got some made for my clients recently and they look absolutely wow. I have been talking about trends and work I have done in this domain lately on my social handle however today I am taking the route of this blog to give you some insights into how you can use them for your interior.
Before we move to that I would like to mention Anusha Nanavati and her team who beautifully designed a nursery for Sonam Kapoor’s son. She is really done a great job with rattan in this space and it looks very classy.
While reading and researching more about it I came across A project by Enter Project Asia at Chiang Mai Art Gallery in Chiang Mai, Thailand. The complex comprises several interior pavilions surrounded by gardens with sculptures and water features. They have created a fabulous installation using Rattan and it’s mesmerising( the cover pic is one of these installations). It’s really interesting to see how versatile Rattan is and the way its usage is evolving. We all want to use it in our space that too in an interesting way, so let’s look at some options here:
- Use Rattan as pendant lights: If you want to start using with just one element then lampshade or pendant lights would be a great idea.
- To Add texture: Use it in the living room or bedroom furniture or even decor to add rustic texture.
- Explore colours: No it’s not limited to ‘the traditional rattan colour’ you can mix and match it with the decor and use it in a wide range of colours.
- Include with your existing furniture: Add variation to your existing set of furniture by adding a few elements.
Hope you like these ideas. Remember don’t overdo the experiment keep it subtle and minimalist.
