Chinoiserie project

CHINOISERIE PROJECT

 

Story:
The design for this music room in New Jersey was inspired by 18th century Chinese wall paper. The Chinese exported to Europe their hand-painted creations. These Chinese products could not meet the growing demand and craftsmen and artists from all over Europe began to produce their own alternatives - chinoiseries.

Chinoiseries became all the rage and an essential element of decoration in palaces of all sizes, from Naples to Saint-Petersburg. One of the most famous example of this style can be found at the Royal Pavilion, built for the Prince Regent, in Brighton, England.
